A Black man just beat the record for the longest filibuster, defeating the record previously held by a man who filibustered the literal Civil Rights Act.
As the time ticked over, Cory Booker announced he did it not out of hatred for who he opposed, but out of love for those who supported him.

Black Americans outnumbered white Americans among the 29,500 people who lived in Selma, Alabama, in the 1960s, but the city’s voting rolls were 99% white.

The president is a convicted felon.
The mayor of NYC is an indicted felon.
The secretary of defense is a Fox News host.
The secretary of transportation is a Fox News host.
The very worst people in America are in charge of America.

Barbara Garson’s satirical play MacBird! is a prime example of a courageous woman speaking truth to power during the treacherous Sixties USA. The prologue echos loudly now. I wrote a history and feminist analysis of MacBird! (my humble 2009 dissertation) and am happy to share the inspiring events.

I think we should take up using the old insult/descripter “square.” It’s perfect. Examples: Republicans are such squares.
It’s so square to eat at Chili’s.
