A program in Flint, MI, gave $1,500 to any/all pregnant people and $500/month for the first year of their infant’s life.

Among the benefits, those babies experienced lower rates of prematurity and low birth weight, which resulted in fewer NICU admissions, saving the city of Flint $6.2 million/year.

MESSAGE FOR YOUNG WHITE MEN: You are being used.

Your enemy isn't across. Your enemy is UP.

They're tearing this country apart for THEIR profit. They profit when they shoot you & they profit at the hospital when they stich you up. Black Rock will make trillions off of the collapse of our nation.

Each year I’ll lecture in pretty much the same theories but, dear god, never have I had so many active, current examples to talk about that also impact so many different students.

In 1890, the X and Y chromosomes were discovered. It was found that the men who were tested had 46 chromosomes, including an X and a Y, while women who were tested also had 46 chromosomes, including 2 X chromosomes.
So obviously the conclusion was that the Y chromosome defined masculinity.

I just found this old deaf, maybe blind senior dog dehydrated and gasping in my garage!

A pause in getting him cared for.

Will keep you posted.

He is very sweet and tired.

One thing you can guarantee will happen tomorrow is that somewhere in America, a gaggle of insecure white men will convince each other that escalation means they're powerful.

Instead of acknowledging what WE see when men have no means to mitigate conflict: which is senseless emotional volatility.
