How about just taxing them?

Following the Fair Housing Act, which made segregation illegal, Black people still had to use White "fronts" to get around the excuses used by racists to deny them access.

Still common, but unspoken, in business today.

Many decision-makers want Blacks to answer to "someone else", not be Owners.

Holding those around me accountable for their actions and inactions, not only clears out the snakes, but it forces me to raise my own level of self-awareness and accountability.

I understand why so few do it.

There are lessons after lessons proving how destructive bigotry + hate is in the world.

Still, many take the path of least resistance and blame their insecurities, trials + failures on others.

History's Heroes + Sheroes are our guides and sources of strength to keep fighting forward for humanity.

The Trump regime goes berserk and expands travel ban to 39 countries. Straight out of a white supremacist authoritarian playbook, the ban hypes a smaller number of crimes as excuse to harass overwhelmingly people of color. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Disgraceful and un-American!
Trump expands travel ban to 39 countries after shooting of Guard members
The administration added 20 countries to the 19 whose citizens already faced full or partial restrictions on entering the United States.

Nebraska fans did #Raiola a disservice making him think he's the next #Mahomes.

The kid's a horrible scrambler and his deep game looks like a buckshot target.

For every great pass over 15 yards, 5 are overthrown and 3 underthrown.

He'll never start at a program equal to/better than the #Huskers.

There are too many people in our community who have been convinced that they can't be leaders, despite the incredible work they're already doing.

We've sidelined too many of our best and brightest, due to their lack of academic credentials or past mistakes.

It's time to invest into who's working.

Two babies were born in New York within a year of each other, soon after WWII.

One, Rob Reiner, lived a life of humanity and achievement. He brought us delight and joy. His memory will be a blessing.

The other, Donald Trump, will be remembered as an embarrassment to our nation.

There are no current Republicans who can claim to have high morals, strong ethics, or Christian values.

Not even Republicans you love and like.

The Party is a safe haven for incompetent, lying, corrupt, traitorous, child rapists and is held together solely with hate, bigotry and anti-Americanism.

Democrats are going to have to take hard stands to move forward.

The "everybody gets everything" anarchy approach to government has to end.

They need a solid, cohesive platform to get through 2028 or no one will get anything, ever again.

Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, LGBTQ+ will ALL be GOP targets.

I served on the Board of an org blessed with a $6mn donation.

It would be great to see some of these "giving pledges" incorporate growth capital for historically-excluded Business Owners.

It would do wonders for job creation + healthcare in impoverished communities.
