Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.

2. We have a president who doesn't want us to cover, in our museums "how bad Slavery was". Was it not bad? Imagine if Reagan had said this? FFS
