The ICE murder victim having the last name “Good” is just too on the goddamn nose right now. Way too much metaphor becomes reality for me.

I’m furious this happened and hope for the best for her now orphaned kid.
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

Thank you for your work to plan the Rosie the Riveter Nat'l Historical Park that memorializes the role of women here at home during WWII & for becoming a park ranger at age 85. We may not have known you otherwise & that would've been a loss for us all.

Goodnight & godspeed, Betty Reid Soskin🕯️

Y’all, all these white men being discriminated against by the white men running everything is the best civil rights reporting I’ve seen under this new administration. We’ve all been focusing on the wrong things.

I’m listening to NPR standards explain when it uses euphemisms for racist in regard to Trump. It’s on Code Switch, streaming for me on satellite radio.

It’s incoherent but it is an attempt at transparency.
