Viola Fletcher, the oldest living survivor of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre, has died. She was 111.

"I have lived through the massacre every day. Our country may forget this history, but I cannot," she told Congress in 2021.

Geoff Bennett has more.

Stanley Nelson directed an excellent documentary, “Tulsa Burning” for the 100mph anniversary.

Russell Westbrook produced it.

I believe it’s on Hulu, and definitely worth watching.

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Fanduel introducing group wagers so families can bet together in time for the holidays is diabolical.

One of my favorite things is getting to tell friends who are new to NYC that the subway "stand clear of the closing doors please" voice is a trans woman named Bernie Wagenblast and she's amazing.

I’ve seen Angel happily talking with her post games, maybe this is a good faith move for her?

(It’s the Sky so probably wishful thinking.)
A day after the WNBA Draft Lottery, the Chicago Sky announce the addition of Latricia Trammel to Tyler Marsh's coaching staff as an assistant coach.

Trammel was the HC of Dallas from '23-'24 and most recently was a special assistant for Lynne Roberts in LA for the 2025 sea

Steve Young just ripped* the Eagles offensive coaching staff.

*Very politely said they might be the worst staff in the league at production/talent.

Please watch this.

The Senate killed a bill to ban state regulation of AI by a vote of 99-1 this spring. Now the industry - eager to stay unregulated - and Trump are scheming to shove the provision in the national defense bill.

You need to know this, so you can help stop it.

The Eagles offense currently ranks 25th in success rate. They are producing a positive play on offense at the same rate as the Jets.

This is the lowest success rate an Eagles offense has had through Week 12 in the last 20 years.

Moments ago: tenants of the South Shore apartment building that federal immigration agents raided at the end of September held a presser to announce they're forming a tenants union.

They're demanding, among other things, sewage removal and heat and electricity restroration.

More updates TK.

. @edyong209.bsky.social went independent and I am glad he did, because this fawning piece about a man who will be responsible for millions of excess #deaths would never be written by a proper #health and #science #journalist
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

DOGE was always a very thinly disguised con to dress up data theft and extraction class destruction of federal corporate oversight as innovative, and it's important to remember that part of the reason it worked so well is that the press helped legitimize it
hey don't be so hard on yourselves; it delivered oceans of sensitive government and citizen data to billionaires

What do you do when you’re a gun-loving leftist who doesn’t fit into mainstream American gun culture?

That's a question @manishakrishnan.bsky.social set out to answer this summer when she attended a Brutality match, an inclusive firearms competition in Idaho.
The Hard-Left Shooters Leading a Gun Culture Revolution
Earlier this year, I attended a shooting competition for queer, often trans, very online misfits. Then Charlie Kirk was killed.
