Been thinking a lot about these Washington Post layoffs, and the parallels to what happened to the media in Kenya in the 2000s. For context, Kenya had one state owned broadcaster until 1992 but we have always had at least two newspapers (often more). We had one radio broadcaster in two languages.

The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit.

Trayvon Martin should be turning 31 today. He should be surrounded by friends and loved ones celebrating him.
He and his family were robbed of that because a grown man stalked him and killed him.

A new study suggests, nearly 50% of the Black-White mortality gap is linked to chronic stress from racism, trauma, and economic hardship. This confirms what we’ve long known: racism isn’t just a social issue. Over time, this injustice eats away at our health, our hope, and our lives.
New evidence shows how discrimination shortens lives in Black communities
Researchers linked higher inflammation levels to decades of stress, including discrimination and economic hardship.

Of course. It's now owned and controlled by the current regime.
This morning, I recorded a video on TikTok about why DHS’s arguments for the power to enter homes without judicial warrants in immigration cases are bunk.
Nine hours later, TikTok still says my video is “under review,” and can’t be shared.
Well, here’s a link:

It’s not “losing money” any more than air traffic controllers or public highways or street lights or fire departments are “losing money.” It is a government service. It’s not SUPPOSED to make money. It’s supposed to reliably deliver to anywhere in the US, even the unprofitable places.
The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.
