My husband @hl4ny and I bought a copy of #Maus while in Germany a few years back - quite a powerful experience. Seeing it in the language that was used to commit the atrocities of the holocaust made it ever the more vivid. This book should be read widely, in all languages.

@hl4ny and I were there at the 2nd Radio City concert. You were marvelous as always. We also had the pleasure of seeing you in the late 90s at Avery Fisher!

if trump is reelected, he’s likely getting four more SCOTUS appointments. Breyer and RBG won’t make it 4 more years. Thomas and Alito might bounce to make room for younger more right wing conservatives. By 2025, 6 of the 9 justices could be trump appointees. Marinate on that.

Antisemitism in the black community serves just one purpose - fueling white supremacy. They'd like to keep us divided because they know the strides we make when united. – at Ithaca, NY

Just a reminder that our postal workers who have been working around the clock so we have access to our mail during the #COVID19 are at risk of losing their jobs because Mitch McConnell refuses to act. This isn’t the time to play politics. We must #SaveTheUSPS.

Before you Biden haters abstain from voting this year or vote for a third party, remember you’re not voting for Biden. You’re voting for Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s replacement.

Let me translate for you. “Widespread voter fraud” really means a lot of "those kinds of people" voting.
