🏳️🌈 NOVEDAD ✊🏽
Un relato fascinante y poderoso, mezcla de investigación y crónica periodística de los años que van desde la década de los 70 hasta la actualidad, de la historia activista del movimiento popular que ayudó a desarrollar los medicamentos que convirtieron la infección mortal del VIH en una enfermedad manejable.
'Cómo sobrevivir a una plaga. La historia de los activistas y científicos que consiguieron controlar el SIDA', @ByDavidFrance.
Traducción de Alberto Sesmero González.

Bobby might share the same name as our father, but he does not share the same values, vision or judgment. Today's announcement is deeply saddening for us. We denounce his candidacy and believe it to be perilous for our country. @roryekennedy @joekennedy @KKT_Kennedy
Thank you!!!
Today we're featuring the 2017 Baillie Gifford prizewinner, How To Survive a Plague by @ByDavidFrance. This is the incredible story of the AIDs epidemic and how activists and scientists worked to develop a treatment for HIV. An extraordinary book! #readwithpride #pridemonth

A 16 year old was shot for ringing the wrong doorbell.
A 20 year old was shot and killed for driving down the wrong driveway.
An 18 year old is in critical condition for trying to get into the wrong car.
And a 6 year old and her dad were shot because her basketball rolled onto the wrong lawn.
In a nation armed to the teeth & perpetually primed for war, these tragedies are only going to happen more often, not less.
What the hell are we doing?

As Texas Gov Abbot prepares to pardon a white man & convicted murderer for killing a peaceful BLM protestor—Texas sentences a Black man to 70 years in prison for “spitting at police” to “make an example out of him.”😳
Systemic white supremacy is thriving in the GOP. Horrific.

On April 4th the Trump MAGA circus came to town. Almost impossible to believe I’ve been filming this for 7 years. Someday people will look back and say how the hell did we get here.
#QUEENDOM wins jury award at CPH:DOX! “With exquisite gentleness and outstanding visual beauty...a breathtaking and striking reminder of art's role in speaking truth to power.” Congrats Agniia & @IgoMy & @henty_alice & especially Gena Marvin!

Trump, explained
Trump supporter outside court tonight in lower Manhattan. I asked why he loved Trump. Because he’s against George Soros and his gay son #TrumpIndictment

I got one photo of the incident of a Proud Boy punching a queer person with his full weight. They had just been walking behind, PBs turned around.
They tell me the punch didn’t hurt — what hurt was that they fell on a metal barricade.
This happened in front of a store called “A Salt & Battery.”

This is a sad day for @nytimes. This company pledged $150 million in stock buybacks this year, but it’s offering staff what amounts to a pay cut, during record inflation in the most expensive city in the world. I love the Times and wish it loved me back.
I’m not reading the Times today to support the one-day walkout, first in 40 years
That’s why tomorrow’s walkout is, for now, still on.
ALT A graphic showing a needle measurement ranging from “very likely walkout” to “very likely contract” is pointing to “very likely” walkout at 95 percent. The title says “Chance of a finished @nytimes contract by Dec. 8” and includes a @NYTimesGuild logo.
