Tragic but true.
In 6th grade, a white English teacher said I didn't know how to write a complete sentence.
I had several ribbons in my room (starting from 3rd grade) which said otherwise.
That's one way they move when they want to break the self confidence of a Black child in school.
✅ the teacher's grading

Y’all. So there is a safehouse full of women in the city. About 10 I think. We’ve secured the funding from private donors and are gonna contact the heads of the safehouse to pay off ALL the women’s rents for a month for Christmas!

It was Cronyism that brought down the Nazi Germany. People in positions of power who had absolutely no qualifications or knowledge except loyalty to a belief or a person.
And it WILL be the downfall of America if we continue like this.

Yeah…well I hope they’re paying close attention because that will be a mistake on their part.
The established Dems believe all they need to do is win the next election and everything will go back to blissful normality once again. But blissful normality is what landed us here in the first place.

Ppl still don't realize they were sold fairytales at the expense of Black ppl.
Belief in those fairytales is the foundation of their own implosion.
Black ppl were not ever the bad guys. Look at where believing such fairytales landed a nation.
Illusions only exist as long as ppl believe them

Took them less than a week to take one of the most visible public repudiations of the GOP in my lifetime and turn it into hog slop.

Did you know that in Canada, if a budget doesn’t pass the government doesn’t shut down?
Federal workers aren’t furloughed.
Funding for social services doesn’t dry up.
Failure to pass a budget triggers an election.
It puts the politicians jobs on the line.
