They didn’t delete the meme or blame a staffer because they realized it was racist and the right thing to do.

They didn’t because of public outrage.

They did it because Republican senators FINALLY spoke out and they backed down.

There’s a lesson in that if they will learn it.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.

Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

She made key contributions to US cold-war science despite facing huge barriers as a Black woman.

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

My parents' cat Bridget vanished. As the weeks dragged on they became ever more worried, so to distract himself my dad began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up at some of art & music's most important moments.

I've collected his work here...

ICYMI, Rice University students have developed a free online map to track ICE activity throughout the country.

Find it here: www.icemap.dev.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Institutions don’t respond to outrage. But they do respond to sustained pressure.

I’ve been covering the Epstein survivors fight for transparency relentlessly for months.

The law has already been ignored. Deadlines have passed.

So there’s a new strategy ✊🏼

@govevers.wisconsin.gov may be a lil copy/paste on this?!
This is the way:

NJ Gov. @mikiesherrill.bsky.social said her administration will create an online database for people to upload videos they record of ICE

“If you see an ICE agent in the street, get your phone out,” she urged New Jerseyans

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for “illegals trying to vote.”

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

Went to my local library this morning to do a bit of research for my current book project and my goodness such a life-affirming space! There was an adult being taught to read on the next table, children enjoying story time, countless people taking out books. So grateful for our libraries ❤️

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.
