The way the Black Panthers understood food aid as a crucial form of self defense against the capitalist machinery of the racial state remains essential to the struggle against fascism today.

If you're wondering why a large chunk of ostensibly left-of-center pundits are waging war on environmental protections in the form of an "abundance agenda," it's because Silicon Valley has quietly developed a culture of rampant pollution.

If I could tell you how many women journalists I've known over the years who work so hard despite repeated sexual harassment and discrimination and then to live in a time when the president is openly calling a reporter piggy and that woman probably got paid a lot for that stupid book. I can't.

Finally!

My new book Boarding Schools and the Indigenous Story is a comprehensive history of the efforts of the US government to remove native children from their families, from colonization to today. For middle grades, but for everyone.

This trend is sooo funny and also reminds me of the mid 2000’s when Jay Z started wearing button ups and blazers w/jeans.

“Business casual in the club” was a thing in the same way as quarter zips — using respectability via dress to avoid being targeted
So, my pal @jinxungoh.bsky.social sent me a vid earlier abt the quarter-zip trend taking hold among young Black men on TikTok & across Gen Z more generally.

Of course, I have a few quick thoughts (for whatever they're worth).
