We are where we are because we made up reasons why certain kinds of people were inherently inferior, and we have never fully done the work to undo that.

When you see what people wrote about Black people in the 1800s, it really brings home that it is not substantially different than the things they say now.
When you see what people wrote about Chinese people, and see it hasn’t changed. About Mexicans.

It would be a shame to encourage folks to use banned book lists to do strange things like
-check them out regularly at the library
-request the library order them if they don’t have them
-buy them
-start or support banned book clubs
-organize a banned book kids story time
A real shame

Some GOP members feel helpless as DOGE cuts hit.
A growing number of congressional Republicans are desperately trying to back-channel with White House officials as Trump’s DOGE ramps up its slash-and-burn firings of federal workers.

Lots of people think it's pointless to call out GOPers on capitulation to Trump.
Here's why it's not.
You need to make this claimed helplessness visible. You need to make it clear Jerry Moran has PLENTY of tools to rein in Musk, but has chosen not to use them.

DEI is a corporate term, CRT is a legal framework, Black Lives Matter was a political slogan, Staying woke was a colloquialism. It’s not individual terms at fault here, people aren’t being confused into racism.

BUT the CDC can’t communicate with the WHO to learn more
SO we will know less about this outbreak
And this increases the risk to everyone

NIH Directors have been advised all research must be submitted to the WH for approval before being submitted for publication
The WH is naming itself as ultimate peer reviewer

Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause."
They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.
