Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.
Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

I hear from informed sources that these #NoKings rallies are more than twice as big as last time, making them easily the largest protests in US history. Thanks to everyone and especially organizers.

The babies who were conceived during the famine and whose mothers were undernourished while their brains were being built—those brains were smaller. When those people were adults, their brains were wired in a different way.
How famine and starvation can affect Gazans for generations to come
Research on WWII's Dutch “Hunger Winter” has terrifying implications for the region's children—and for their children.

On the one year anniversary of the violent encampment raid, UCLA admin called in riot police to break up students watching The Encampments documentary on campus.

Kamala Harris: The courage of Americans who are speaking out to say, it is not ok to violate court orders. Saying it is not ok to detain and disappear American citizens or anyone without due process. The courage of judges to uphold the rule of law in the face of those who would jail them.

A LOT of people do not want to hear it but in the United States at least, food has never been safer to eat, not to mention tastier
We are living in one of the few times in human history where you can buy a loaf of bread and if it says it’s made with wheat flour and salt and yeast and water and nothing else, it’s probably made from just those ingredients, and some people want to END this.

Republicans in Congress want to make it more expensive for kids from working-class families to go to college and easier for schools to scam student loan borrowers — all to pay for tax handouts for the wealthiest Americans.
That's the GOP agenda: billionaires win, families lose.

Books like Ibram X Kendi’s Stamped from the Beginning & Timothy Snyder’s On Freedom are giving me the framework to understand what we are experiencing in this country right now and why it is so imperative that we each take action every day. There is no room to wait it out. Not if we want to be free.

The crisis is here now. Trump is enacting an insidious coordinated attack on our institutions of democratic accountability, designed to crater democracy before next fall.
