Why do we stay here?

In Minnesota a Black Man is now Brain dead because #Police treated him like a criminal during a traffic stop when he was having a STROKE instead of giving medical help he was put in jail.

No drugs in system, No criminal.. Just Driving while Black.

Why Do We Stay? #BlackSky

Even the lady that won the Nobel peace prize is sucking up to Trump and being a little fucker. I'm so over this timeline. The world needs a major do over.

They should just give him a Nobel Piece Prize it will be months before anyone in his immediate trajectory figures it out.

Tara Walker @taraew.bsky.social · 1d

A 17 yr old White Kid drove his car into two girls k!lling them because they scoffed Charlie Kirk & he was NOT immediately arrested.
Had time to laugh about it on a gaming platform afterwards.

Can a president commanding his private thug force to brutalize, kidnap and disappear brown & Black people win the Nobel Peace Prize? We'll know the answer tomorrow!

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · 1d

In the end, this entire episode is a good reminder that as the president goes about turning the justice department into his own personal law firm, what may be his undoing is his inability to stop stepping on rakes. www.thebulwark.com/p/the-good-f...

The Good Fences Trump’s Destroying

Plus: Can a president bombing boats in the Caribbean—boats a fellow world leader says had random citizens aboard—really win the Nobel Peace Prize?

Me too & I work with so many folks like yourself that think/believe their "intelligence" supersedes their cognitive dissonance around race, internal biases, and antiblackness. Especially if they are so called liberal, and even if they are a "PoC"

i wish they would just say that the thing that made her too left was that she was black, a woman, and a black woman, because literally nothing else makes sense.

Responded to Chait’s take on progressives and the Democrats.

Spoiler: I disagree with him

Jon Chait Thinks Kamala Harris Went Too Far Left. He's Just Falling for Trump's Demagoguery.

A year ago, Jonathan Chait said centrists were winning. When Kamala Harris lost, though, he fell for Trump's anti-trans demagoguery.

Reposted from IG (@theblackmancan) #KyrenLacy was supposed to be on a NFL field this wknd. It's important to say “Kyren Lacy was innocent”. His name & face were plastered everywhere when he was investigated.

How many Black ppl's lives & livelihoods have been lost under WS & police lies?
