Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

I don't have more new social media platforms left in me. If blue sky don't work out you'll just have to read my innermost thoughts in my autobiography.

So true. No one should ever have imposter syndrome again after witnessing the absolute piles of trash currently in power.

That man is legitimately one of my best friends. He has set the standard of what level of patience, companionship, critical thinking, and conversation I be looking for in a partner.

lol and finally, Black women don't owe anybody shit. We showed up, we did the work, and we warned everyone.

While we will bear the brunt of what happens next, I want to make it crystal clear that we don't anyone a damn thing for like ever and ever.
