These are good moments to remember that the CEOs of all the biggest companies in America are happy to go to White House dinners and slap this guy’s back. They do not care about this. Remember this, years from now, when they want you to forget.

Lots of hard, shitty lessons being learned from this presidency. And one of the many I hope you're learning is, white supremacy is incompatible with reality, and cannot exist without historical revisionism.

To be asked to write about racism only to be racially aggressed in the editing process is a new level unlocked I have to say.

When I first started doing the "fixer" kind of work, it didn't take long to start feeling lonely. Which was really weird. I was talking to more people than ever before. And people were most certainly grateful! But no one really understood what it was that I did and why.
The shift in this model is that we're no longer talking about a cofounder or a bestie or work spouse.
