What we are witnessing is an outright abuse of power.

This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.

Tyler grew up wealthy in all white communities, schools, church, friends… and yet he walked right into white nationalism racism garbage and accepted that Black folk were a problem.

Not class… racism.

And to be fair, he found problems with Black, brown, all races of lgbtqi and women.

When unions are strong, our communities and our country are strong.

Every person in our nation has benefited from the labor movement. This Labor Day, we celebrate the workers and unions who have fought for fair wages, safe workplaces, and sick leave for all of us.

Right now what matters is overwhelming numbers of democrats voting in the midterms.

Democrats fighting back in myriad ways and every way being met with some purist saying “Not like that” is exhausting..

All effort and each action matter.

Worse than I could imagine. Way worse.
I finished listening to Vincent Woodard’s THE DELECTABLE NEGRO. Good book, difficult material. Consider reading bell hooks’ THE WILL TO CHANGE and Isabel Wilkerson’s CASTE before Woodard’s academic text.
