D’Angelo was one of the most widely revered artists of the past 30 years.

He began his career as a songwriter for other artists, but quickly asserted himself as a solo star with his 1995 debut 'Brown Sugar.'

Work well done, Drew. Rest now.

Drew was THE illustrator who created so many classic movie posters, you might have no idea how much of it was actually painted, they were so well done.

When I get home, I will host the documentary, "Drew; The Man Behind The Poster"

Much love to his family.

this is the list of ideological identifiers laid out in the NSPM-7 that would predict violence, and are all of course, incredibly reasonable positions or just ridiculous framing, like “extremism on gender” which is just being pro-trans:

Quick update on what we just saw here—*before curfew*, ISP troopers, Broadview PD and CCSO deputies began menacing demonstrators outside the ICE facility. Several arrests.

Pepper ball guns at the ready, a bit of a standoff going with remaining protesters. All people are doing is playing music.

Like “this woman who made it her life’s job to teach kids is obviously faking her advocacy for kids”
HUH??
She’s ain’t shut up about the horrors they’ve been going through since the “war” started 😭😭
She got death threats and everything.

Never thought I would see 🥷🏾s have beef with the woman teaching kids ABCs

larry @larrrrrry.bsky.social · 4d

her advocacy for Palestinians doesn't bother me nearly as much as she is so desperately doing all this as an actual act of transparent virtue signaling, to fill the absence she has in depth of character

Took a break from the Supreme Court's ongoing horrorshow to focus on what really matters: how funny it is for a federal judge to decide, as a matter of law, that Drake lost the Kendrick Lamar beef

Apparently, Drake decided that losing in the court of public opinion was not humiliating enough.

A bunch of comedians tried to make up for their participation in the Riyadh comedy festival by donating their pay to Human Rights Watch and Human rights Watch was like “nah bitch we don’t want your dirty blood money” 😂😂 I’m dying

Taking money from those who took money from Saudi Arabia would impact perception of the org’s independence.

I donated some copies of Let This Radicalize You for distribution at an ICE watch training for folks who want to join school patrols in a nearby neighborhood. Not everyone got a copy, because 120 people showed up for that training tonight. I am endlessly proud of Chicago.

A display of copies of Let This Radicalize You on a table in front of a sign that reads: "Let This Radicalize You offers stories, strategy and heart for the kind of collective care and resistance we're building together today. It helps us move from reacting to organizing. Showing how ordinary people protect each other, build power, and keep hope alive. Take a copy. Read it. Stay connected."

A 3rd day of hearings over a proposed temporary restraining order against federal agents in Chicago is about to begin.

Federal Judge Sara Ellis expects to enter the order today; unfortunately I won't be covering live as oral arguments over natl. guard deployment in IL are set to start in 30 mins.

Dave Byrnes @djbyrnes1.bsky.social · 6d

Back in federal judge Sara Ellis' courtroom in Chicago for a second day of discussion on a proposed restraining order to rein in federal immigration agents' violent behavior.

Debate began on this issue on Monday, and ended without the court entering a formal order.

Dave Byrnes @djbyrnes1.bsky.social · 8d

@unraveledpress.com & other press have been threatened, shot with less-lethals and arrested while reporting on federal immigration activities in Chicagoland and on the resulting protests at Broadview.

I'm now at a hearing asking the federal court to rein ICE & co in. I'll let you know how it goes.
