Massive ICE raids right now in Anaheim, La Mirada, Santa Ana, Bell Gardens, and Cathedral City, out near Palm Springs.

So many videos can't even keep up with them. Would take all day and night to download and post.

Just stay safe, everyone.

ICE is all over Southern California.

Sometimes you’ll hear someone claim Joseph Smith was an abolitionist. You’ll also hear he was a racial universalist. The documentary record and historical context, however, is much more complicated. My new YouTube video explores early Mormonism & race.
Was Joseph Smith an Abolitionist… or Not?

My take on #Sinners is that it is about proximity to whiteness as vampirism.

You have to give up your humanity, your soul, for a place in the world outside of your oppression.

The fact that the vamp is Irish, then the white passing Mary is the first to integrate into the new group, etc

Watching CNN. Rep. Gill (R), from Texas, just related Trump’s recent push to acquire Greenland and change the name of the Gulf of Mexico to a new Manifest Destiny. 👀
