I wrote an essay for BuzzFeed about how black trauma has gone from unseen to everywhere on the internet, and how the toll for white American enlightenment has become black mental health.

I’m Tired Of Watching Black Death Go Viral

Why must graphic videos of George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery make the social media rounds in order for the public to care about their unjust deaths?

The most consistent theme of conservatism is being completely unable/unwilling to understand how a thing is bad until it happens to you.

Milo Yiannopoulos: "I didn't really understand the physical reality of how institutionalized the brutality is in America. The manner in which they arrest you, they put you in manacles, everybody is arrested like an MS 13 gang member. It was physically degrading. It was frightening. I don't think I've ever been frightened like that before. I was weeping like an old woman for an hour. I wouldn't wish it on anyone."

American science continues to shrink despite the story being told to the public. And it’s the long term consequences that will be most devastating.

NEW STORY: In AZ, a cancer patient was told to treat his symptoms with an energy drink. A MS inmate broke his arm and later needed to have it amputated. In LA, an inmate nearly lost his leg. I wrote about healthcare in the prison system for Gambit. nola.com/gambit/news/the_lat…

Ill and incarcerated: Inmates report medical mistreatment at Angola and beyond

People in prisons in Louisiana and across the nation say they're not receiving proper medical care. Why are these cases so common?

This man, whom I used to greatly admire as a computer science student, is...a sociopath. Society keeps propping up sociopaths and it has endangered the world. Ayn Rand has WAY too many disciples.

“Who was paying her to protest?” Is a question only asked by someone who can’t imagine doing anything out of moral conviction, rather than money & power.

Reminder that the civil rights movement was not just random people who had enough one day. They were carefully and militantly trained political activists who deployed strategic forces to end Jim Crow segregation. Never forget them.

Supporters of AI art don't understand that the *least* important thing about art is the final product. What gives art meaning and beauty is the process. Pouring your heart into it. Spending months perfecting it. Learning from your mistakes. There is no art without the process.
