Mayor Karen Bass just told me that there was a kids summer camp in MacArthur Park when the federal agents in camp and long guns swooped in and they had to be brought inside so they didn’t get completely freaked out.

How Woke Went From "Black" to "Bad": The Meaning of "Woke"
"Woke" has become a negative buzzword and derisive stand-in for diversity, inclusion, empathy, and Blackness. When legislators pass a law to “stop woke” in light of the word’s true history and commonly understood meaning, what are they really saying?

As soon as the stats on early polling dropped I had a feeling Mamdani had it. Dems win when they turn young people and unengaged voters. He respected the vote instead expecting it. Would love to see more of that. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/n...

Any radically progressive platform that doesn’t even mention race based discrimination while this administration is currently dismantling civil rights protection, isn’t truly progressive, let alone radical. We really can’t be doing this 2010’s dance ya’ll.
