Black history is American history. The music, the movements, the sacrifice, the triumph - it has all shaped who we are.
In celebrating Black History Month, let us learn the untold stories and honor those who paved the way for progress.

Donald Trump pardoned the “Camp Auschwitz” rioter.
He dined with a Holocaust‑denying white nationalist.
He said Jews who vote Democratic “hate their religion.”
Now Greg Bovino is accused of mocking Jewish observance.
That’s not coincidence — it’s a culture.
My recent essay breaks it down.

They don't have quite the same accent or style of speaking as my parents, who lived in the Twin Cities area for a couple of decades, but they definitely make me think about what my parents would have said if they were still alive and were in this situation.

A retired Minneapolis couple who had guns pointed at them by ICE in a church parking lot.
"They were obviously not trained at all. I've known many police officers in my life. These people were right off the streets."

I have been doing this every chance I have. I urge everyone to also exercise your opinion. We can complain they are not doing anything. Remind them what they need to do.
We got you. ✊

I filmed this backstage at a Dead & Company show, not long after the Parkland shooting. Bob Weir had asked to meet a group of student survivors — and the care, time, and respect he showed them was unforgettable. He always showed up to inspire the next generation. Fare thee well to a true legend.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.

Once again, is this the America you want to live in?
a video taken by the eyewitness, Emily Heller, shows agents denying a self-identified physician access to the victim and telling bystanders to “just relax.”
“How can I relax? You just killed my fucking neighbor,” Heller responded. “How the fuck do you show up to work every day?”

This must be stopped. The people of the USA must speak and the legislative branch must do their job to bring this democracy back on track.
People need to be amplifying the fact that Miller is the de facto president. @electdemocrats.bsky.social @chrismurphyct.bsky.social
This vile new Stephen Miller tweet, along with the news that Miller may run the occupation of Venezuela, is a good time for you to read our deep dive into Miller's actual worldview and agenda, especially this part comparing Miller's language with Pat Buchanan's:
