It's 100 percent worse for Black women in media. Just like it's worse for Black women in nearly every job in the country.

I'd go further—it's not just that so many of these decisions are unsigned and unexplained; it's that there's so little about how the Court even *decides* these cases that is publicly understood:

177. The (Not-So-)Interim Docket
Justice Kavanaugh's attempt to re-brand how the Supreme Court handles emergency applications is belied by how the Supreme Court is actually handling emergency applications.

So some newsroom with actual integrity should hire @karenattiah.bsky.social pronto. She’s great and unlike some of her colleagues cares about describing the reality of the world accurately more than getting invited to the right conferences and dinner parties

I hired Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in 2017, and worked with him closely until he was murdered by the Saudi regime in Istanbul -- simply for expressing himself.

I put my safety on the line for years to push publicly for justice and accountability in his murder.

But hey, if you’re known by your enemies, as a pro democracy Appalachian, I’m happy to be despised by a fake one who’s gone all in as a fascist.

The death of this Mexican was also a political act of murder; just one Republicans have “legalized.”

I'm sure I can think of more reasons to canvass, but these are the ones that immediately, extemporaneously come to mind.

If you've made it to this last post in the thread, thanks for reading and I hope I've persuaded you to join a canvass. 🙏

The answer to "how is this allowed?" is always "who is going to stop it?"
