Black people in Chicago had their apartment building raided in the middle of the night, were detained for hours, and had their Fourth Amendment rights violated during an ICE operation that had nothing to do with them. Nah, they are not thrilled.

Stephen Miller: "The Black people in Chicago are thrilled that we're getting the illegal aliens out of their communities who are stealing their housing, jobs, and resources."

She's 1 of 1, but a different, incredible Black woman deserves a spot ASAP. I hate that even if it happened, then she'd be compared to Ego, which doesn't happen when there are multiple...but one problem at a time, I guess. Smh.

I agree with Sherri on this. The void was definitely felt on SNL's premiere, and if they go on for the whole season like this, it'll be a disappointing season. Black women comedians have a lot to say about the world right now, and that platform is incredibly powerful. www.thewrap.com/sherri-sheph...

"We got to have representation on that show," the "Sherri" host says, mentioning that Nwodim was the only Black female cast member.

I made a conscious effort to put down my phone and be offline this Yom Kippur, to engage and embrace the spirit of reflection, responsibility, and repair of the holiday.

That stillness, that honesty, that tradition of thoughtfulness, matters. This is such a beautifully Jewish American text. 👇🏽

Don't miss this Yom Kippur reflection why President Trump's attempts to erase America's past sins is so troubling on a deep philosophical and spiritual level.

Political Triumphalism Is Contrary to the Spirit of Yom Kippur

The Jewish holiday’s emphasis on repentance requires confronting our past sins, not burying them

This is the Tay Tay I signed up for! Been missing these vibes. #TheLifeOfAShowgirl did NOT disappoint. Wi$h Li$t, Honey, Father Figure, and of course The Life Of A Showgirl with BIG BRINA STOLE THE SHOW!! I love a full-circle moment, so I'm incredibly happy for Sabrina.

Nothing is Impossible needs to be an Oscar-winning song in someone's movie ASAP and Confetti & Champagne is an INSTANT all-time Mariah fave. Needs to be a single IMMEDIATELY! #MariahCarey #HereForItAll

An ICE agent threw a mom to the ground.

You know how she can file a complaint with DHS?

SHE CAN'T. Trump closed that office.

www.propublica.org/article/home...

On March 21, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem shut down the office and fired most of the 150-person staff. As a result, about 600 civil rights abuse investigations were frozen.

“All the oversight in DHS was eliminated today,” one worker texted after the announcement that they’d been fired.

Damn! 15 yrs is crazy! And the one we discovered her on was a couple yrs before that. Let me throw on Sincerely Jane to celebrate. She's still so far ahead of her time. If these streaming apps existed back then we would've been in her top 1% of listeners lol.
