Having Samuel L Jackson narrate as Uncle Sam was pure genius. I just absolutely love intelligent storytellers and that is exactly what Kendrick is.

Jerry Lawson invented the video game cartridge. He's the reason they stopped making pong consoles in the 1970s. If it weren't for him, the Atari 2600 and many others would literally NEVER exist at all.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

Today, ICE is ramping up mass raids across the country. We know it’s scary, but that’s Trump’s ultimate goal: to scare us and cause chaos. We knew this was coming, and we’re ready for it. Here’s what you can do if you’re approached by an immigration agent ⬇️🧵
