Every DC metro bus I've ridden for the past 3 weeks has had an advertisement for the National Guard in the front.
Same placement. Same graphics. This cannot be a coincidence.
Has anyone else in DC noticed this?

Imagine being born in slavery and living up until 5 months before the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Anna Julia Cooper is one of my favorite people in history. She was born on August 10, 1858, and lived to the age of 105.
I can't sum her up in a single post, but she was born 167yrs ago today

#OTD in 1965, the Watts uprising began after LAPD violently arrested 21-year-old Marquette Frye. Six days of unrest followed, fueled by years of economic disinvestment. On August 17, my father went to Watts to support the community and help build solidarity.
