I find it absolutely hilarious that gay conservatives use the SCOTUS decision to not reconsider Obergefell v. Hodges as proof that progressive gays are fear-mongers while prominent conservatives openly admit that they are committed to ending same sex marriage in the United States.

Black veterans fought for freedom abroad and returned home to second class citizenship. Traveling while Black during Jim Crow was about survival, mobility, and dignity. The Green Book Project documents that story:

Grocery price inflation is tearing him up and he has no plan to fix it. You can’t lie your way around what people see every week at the store. You can’t bully prices. The administration owns the continued inflation in grocery prices. They fully own it now, whether they like it or not.

They are running scared. The “Error” here was thinking that starving 42 million people and giving 1/2 the benefit wouldn’t face blowback. Now everyone knows the full extent of SNAP benefits and how critical they are

Judging from what’s brewing on social media, the Republican options are either:
a) Embrace Nazis and go all in on violent antisemitism
b) Double down on Trump
It’s not clear that these are mutually exclusive options.

Trump says “our groceries are down” and it is easy to fact check this lie— egg prices are up 5.7%, beef prices are up 12.7%, and orange juice is up 6.3% from a year ago.
Why we aren’t seeing the same media coverage of the continuing inflation at the grocery store is beyond me.

During Jim Crow, Black children learned very early which routes and places were safe for them and which were not. See the maps and add your story to this historical project:

Me: “The fixation on causal estimates is not the appropriate direction social science…What descriptive analysis provides us with are facts. Facts are nouns. Causal analysis gives us contextual estimates. They are adjectives. In the grammar of social science, we should prefer nouns to adjectives.”

Segregation in public accommodations was second class economic citizenship. A dollar in the hands of a Black person did not come with the same rights to spend it that others had. Explore the history of this limited citizenship here: greenbookproject.osu.edu #GreenBookProject #CommunityMap #EconSky

This has nothing to do with who is and isn’t considered an “aunt” and to give any credulity to it is foolishness.

It could not be more obvious what they are trying to do to Zohran Mamdani in the last few days of the mayoral race. The xenophobic and Islamophobic smear campaign is in full effect.

The xenophobia and Islamophobia being unleashed in the New York City mayor race is frightening and depressing. They are not hiding it one bit. No need for a dog whistle when you can use a bullhorn. Our politics have regressed to full on hate-mongering. It’s disgusting to witness.

We’ve so poisoned the idea of a safety net that people assume everyone receiving SNAP is unemployed.

I went to the other place and…whew. The reactions to SNAP funding ending are just… sad and pathetic.
So many people have a political perspective rooted in demonizing people and wishing bad things on them for either who they are or how much money they make.

Traveling to five cities (literally coast to coast) in eleven days was a lot. A book conference, a wedding, seminars, and another conference in a compressed time was taxing. Seeing family and friends and engaging with the best scholars in the world, however, is always a great experience.

I think the previous narrative was less about inflation as about who was (finally!) benefiting from the economy. When high earners’ wages weren’t growing quickly the sky was falling and the economy a disaster. Now-because high earners are fine, all we want to talk about is the stock market and AI.
