Ok let me set it up for you: I’m talking to a White friend about a Black person named John. The White friend has never met John. There’s no reason to tell this White friend that John is Black. It’s irrelevant to the conversation. But I feel compelled to say, John is Black. I think it’s tribal.

🌱 We have a January 1st tradition of eating peas first luck and cabbage for money in the New Year. My peas are Mississippi pink eye peas frozen from the past summer's garden and the cabbage was just picked from my winter garden. I should bevok in 2026.

Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.
