Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.
Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

Under Nazi rule, clergy who refused to support the regime were surveilled, arrested, assaulted, and in some cases, executed. The Nazis publicly aligned themselves with Christian values while targeting religious figures who defended the vulnerable or spoke against state violence.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.
moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.
one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

It took this long to come to this conclusion? No. If there were a word and definition beyond genocide—that’s what it would be. That’s what is happening.
We are numb to our most expressive diction, because we are a numb people.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.
As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.
End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Rhetoric needs to change from “oh, we genuinely care and don’t want to cause harm,” to “yes, that was unfortunate and unfortunately a lot of citizens and people are very passionate and upset right now…and those are potential consequences people might have to face.”

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.
