Doc Rivers with raw emotion and a thunderbolt cry for justice: "All you hear is Donald Trump & all of them talking about fear. We're the ones getting killed. We're the ones getting shot...It's amazing, we keep loving this country, and this country does not love us back."

Please don’t ever allow the white establishment to talk about “patriotism” anymore. It’s a complete farce. It shouldn’t even be entertained. They were more outraged about Kaepernick kneeling than bounties being placed on US soldiers. They believe in racism. Period. Thassit.

John believed that in all of us, there exists the capacity for great courage and a longing to do what’s right. We are so lucky to have had him show us the way. I offered some thoughts today on his life and how, like him, we can give it all we have. obama.medium.com/my-eulogy-f…

The thing about this speech that really gets me: there are certain kinds of girls, who are raised by their parents to be a certain kind of woman, who immediately trigger a certain kind of reaction from a certain kind of man. It is instantaneous and violent, like a deadly allergy.
Rep @AOC: "I do not need Rep. Yoho to apologize to me. Clearly he does not want to. Clearly when given the opportunity he will not & I will not stay up late at night waiting for an apology from a man who has no remorse over calling women & using abusive language towards women."

It’s easy to spot people who want the economy to open the fastest. They’re wearing a mask.

We are concerned about the growing state of fascism under the Trump regime. His power grabs are preventing us from doing critical public health service, work that will save lives. Good people of America, RESIST! Many lives are at stake. #StandUpFightBack #WeProtectUs

Joe Biden should announce that the first bill he’ll introduce as President is the John Lewis Voting Rights Act of 2021, a law that would guarantee every American the right to vote and the right to equal representation.
It would restore the Voting Rights Act, but also ensure:

John Lewis: “My dear friends: Your vote is precious, almost sacred. It is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have to create a more perfect union.”
Breaking News: John Lewis has died at 80. A towering figure in the historic struggle for racial equality, he carried a mantle of moral authority into Congress. nyti.ms/3h8Uze4
