“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

I run a Black & brown media network. I beg we not throw out coalitions and much-needed umbrella orgs in the face of white supremacy. Identities are complex, overlapping. We must confront anti-Blackness within, and I vow to keep on. But I cling to belief we need each other.

I’m proud to have helped secured this funding and worked with Miami-Dade and federal officials to bring us closer to making the Northeast Corridor a reality.

By deciding not to editorialize, @washingtonpost and @latimes are violating rule 1 of Timothy Snyder's warnings "On Tyranny."
1.
Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.

Forget Democracy Dies In Darkness. Democracy actually dies when economic elites (billionaires) control the press and means of communication. From the LA Times to Las Vegas Review-Journal to WaPo and X.
Support independent, small to medium-scale, locally based media outlets.
