We’ve entered an era of emboldened neoracism so, for Black History Month, I thought I would research important, but maybe lesser known, African Americans. 1/9

One of the first African American poets to gain national and international recognition was Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872–1906). 1/9

Back in 2000, I didn’t understand the Unilever acquisition of Ben & Jerry’s.

Ben & Jerry’s built its brand on social activism—climate change, racial justice, and human rights. Ben & Jerry’s ice cream was at the first protest I ever attended at the Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant. 1/7

Her work often explored themes of emancipation, Black and Indigenous identity, and historical figures. Her most ambitious and well-known piece, The Death of Cleopatra, broke artistic conventions with its unflinching realism when displayed at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. 7/12

Robert Smalls (1839–1915) was an American Civil War hero. Why hasn't there been a movie about his exploits? Did I miss it? 1/12

I’m just amazed at what Anna Julia Cooper (1858–1964) saw, experienced, and worked for over her 105 years. 1/7

Sadly, the ICE Tip Line has shut down. Overwhelmed with all of the helpful tips. Keep reporting with the ICE Tip Form here: www.ice.gov/webform/ice-...

Donald Trump doesn't know if it was the fault of the air traffic controller or the airplane or helicopter pilot. All he knows is that a black or hispanic person is to blame, or maybe a woman (who's probably a lesbian). And also Barack Obama and Joe Biden. They did this.

In case after case, the Supreme Court has consistently ruled that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has no authority to request assistance from local law enforcement from the state to the local level. This includes everything from manpower to the sharing of data. 1/16

If Donald Trump has pulled the United States out of the World Health Organization, can California join as an independent state?

I made the mistake of reading a thread in response to a Simpsons post showing sympathy for the communities suffering due to the fires in Los Angeles. 1/7

My friend, Brian Colbert, was sworn in as the newest Marin County Supervisor yesterday. Congratulations, Brian!

If you like political thrillers. This is a real page-turner so far.

It’s sad that Donald Trump has chosen to politicize the fires in Los Angeles while Governor Newsom is busy getting shit done.
