Dear #blackwomen two weeks have passed since the presidential election results, and it's clear: it's time for us to regroup and reenergize. 🧵

Sometimes I wonder why is it so hard for us, as humans, to simply live?
To care for one another, to nurture what’s good,
to make sure we all rise and reach our fullest light.
We were meant to thrive, not just survive. 🌍🕊️

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

Kamala Harris: He had no plan for actually bringing down costs and prices for the American people. He had very few plans for what he would actually do that was about the American people, and not his vengeance on his enemies.

When networks look away, independent media shines a light. It’s truth without filters. It’s courage without compromise.

Follow independent outlets like @its_news_allday.

Our work is not done…

📌 Sinclair Broadcast Group is still refusing to air Jimmy Kimmel Live! on its ABC affiliates nationwide.

Folks, you know what to do.

Google Sinclair-owned networks and channels in your city and act accordingly.

Universal childcare wouldn't just relieve working families of a massive cost burden. It improves the whole economy.

"There are a lot of reasons building a child care system that works for everyone is important to our children, to parents, to employers and to economic growth."

France is our best model for change.

The tradition of strikes in France traces back to the 19th century, during the Industrial Revolution, when workers began organizing to demand better wages, shorter hours, and safer conditions.”

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

On June 24, I began my Election Night speech by quoting Mandela: “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” That's the spirit of this campaign, and our city.

This is "Until It’s Done,” a new series about New Yorkers who refused to accept that a worthy goal was impossible.
