Before folks start comparing this to European autocracies, pause and ask why so many folks - Black and white - didn’t know about the Tulsa Race Massacre. Or the Wilmington Coup. Or the Colfax Massacre. Or the Elaine, Arkansas massacre.

Erasure has been a key tactic of white supremacy. Right here.
NEW: The removal of the DOJ’s Jan. 6 database signals the Trump administration’s intention to not only spare his supporters any further consequences for their role in the riot, but to erase the event from the record.

I can do this on my own, but I think crowd-sourcing might help. Quote copy, one thing you personally feel you can do to improve US society.

Trump's anti-trans effort is an agenda cornerstone with echoes in history
Extremism experts say a now-familiar playbook to scapegoat transgender people in the wake of high-profile tragedies is part of a political strategy to sow division and expand authoritarian control.

Let’s be clear.

The #trans community is NO danger to the public.

The overwhelming majority of all rapes are committed by cisgender men.

Countless studies and stats support this.

However, the rapist #FührerTrump IS a very present danger to the trans community.

The DHS has been the cornerstone for my research on global child mortality for over a decade. Its value is immeasurable. Stopping it would seriously limit our understanding of health around the world.
If it's true that future collection of Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data "will cease," this would be a staggering loss to the global community. 1/6

Katherine Johnson, an African American, was critical to the early success of NASA, due to her phenomenal skills as a mathematician.

Erasure of women and minorities from NASA is erasure of history and truth.

I went to my town hall to protest today. No one was there. Just me, alone, waving a sign. Wtf people, you don't see how scary this is?

I am disgusted with the media like @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @msnbc.com failing to report on the take down of our democracy with the vehemence it deserves.
