Van Jones came honest. No spin. No sidestepping. We talked Black–Jewish futures, grief, and power. You won’t agree on everything. But it mattered. #blacksky #jewsky

Black & Jewish communities helped build American democracy—and were betrayed by it. The Wide River Project hosted by Eric K. Ward & Nadine Epstein confronts the lies, the erasure & the work of repair. No saviors. No shortcuts. Just truth.

A question for my evangelical and fundamentalist friends. Is Elon Musk’s Starlink the ‘mark of the beast’? I mean the ‘kings’ of the earth seem to all bow down to it, right? Revelation 13: 16-18. Just curious

I’ve been excited—waving, clapping, snapping—but oddly, I’ve never “accidentally” hit a Nazi salute. Strange, right? It’s almost like gestures tied to authoritarian regimes don’t just happen… unless you’ve got some HIGHLY SPECIFIC muscle memory. It’s more than awkward
