Today, there are people in the stands, performers, musicians, and fans in the FL man streets. ... Meanwhile, mutant ninja Covid variants are running rampant. If we risked it all so Brady could win again, throw the whole country away!!

“What a crazy 12 hours. The day started with black people saving our democracy in the morning and white people destroying it by the end of the day. I’m reeling.” — my friend who clearly needs a twitter account
I had to turn the news off. The trite refrain ‘iz ThiS aMeRiCa or SoMe otThEr coUnTRy?!’ is nauseating. Stop painting the rest of the world as backwards and less ‘civilized’. It’s wack and obtuse and perpetuates the exceptionalism that got us here
The wisdom!!
Why y’all keep asking where the police at? Y’all ask where Miley’s at when Hannah’s on stage?

I know we all like to say that nothing surprises us anymore, but I gotta say, I’m floored at what’s happening at the Capitol today. Shocked. Pained by the audacity of white entitlement and the State law enforcement apparatus’ blatant disparate treatment of terrorists
The failure of the Capitol Police and Federal Law Enforcement to protect the Capitol of the United States is profound. It is inexcusable.

A wonderful thread tribute to yet another life taken too soon by COVID.
Dear friends, most of you know about my brother Hakeem - (he's the older one, i'm the prettier one). But you don't know about my brother Dave. Dave was born a year after Hakeem and year before me - when my parents brought me home, I met both my brothers at the same time.
That’s mahhh friend!!

A useful thread for the policy folks.
*Activists and Legislators:* Here’s a thread of MEANINGFUL legislation that has been proposed and, in some cases, passed in cities and states to address police violence. Consider passing legislation like this in your community, too. (1/x)
