JC’s Journey: A Freedom Story
A 🧵
Few authors have more informed (and reshaped) my understanding of American history than Isabel Wilkerson.
I had the honor and thrill of hearing her speak the other night, and she shared a story and lesson I will never forget.

#NIH is hanging by a thread. The #CDC has been decimated. #RFK Jr. and Russell #Vought are psychopaths--I don't say this frivolously--they are cold, calculating, inflicting violence on millions through public policy. It is where we are right now. These men are not normal. 1/

The precise moment when and where in recent weeks America crossed that invisible line from democracy into authoritarianism can and will be debated by future historians, but it’s clear that the line itself has been crossed. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/america-ti...

Among all the excellent and compelling analyses of our current moment, this stands out as one of the clearest.
The existential national crucible that Donald Trump has brought to the fore with his experiment in disappearing people to a torture gulag in El Salvador presents us with one of the starkest test of values and the constitution our country has ever faced. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/has-americ...

If you’re looking for a good read to escape from reality, this is it! The whole series is wonderful - great characters, clever, funny, and the bonus is you learn something about history with every book!
What a breathtaking, unique, intense, and very funny tale! Wow, this story had everything, and the emotional impact is impressive. The historical retelling is stunning, and the storyline is twisted and dark. #AmazonReview 💙📚🪐 https://amzn.to/4fTzbHG

American institutions—from the media to Congress—continue to underreact to the unraveling of our democracy. Overseas our media would not hesitate to call what we’re living through a full-blown autocratic coup. Here's my attempt at the story they should write: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/musk-trump...

May we all find this courage over the next few years.
YES.
Public acts of defiance matter.
They offer hope, a model of resistance, an awareness that MANY others feel as you do, a vision of pushing back.
They join people in opposition.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.
Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

sewers mark time.
they are where yesterdays are forgotten and where remnants remain for tomorrows memories.
sewers are where we manage the trials of the day and work to make tomorrow better.
there will always be yesterdays to manage.
may 2025 treat all of us, and may we treat each other, kindly.
