For the 1619 project, Nikole Hannah-Jones wrote that #Black Americans made USA a more perfect #democracy by holding it to its ideals.
2023 makes one think of Fani Willis, Alvin Bragg and Letitia James holding to account a singularly corrupt ex-president.
But also people like Jonathan Capehart, Joy Reid and Darren Walker openly declaring that they wouldn't be in their positions but for #AffirmativeAction. Widely held confidence in their credentials undercuts Justice Thomas' gauzy arguments.

Aus dem #Pokémon Manga gibt es diesmal #Black aus #PokémonBlackWhite bei #AQueerCharacterADay :rainbow_heart:
In der Reihe gab es einige Charaktere mit denen er eine wunderschöne Dynamik hat. Herausstechend sind hier seine beiden Kindheitsfreunde und dann noch White und N. ☺️
Aus diesem simplen Grund lese ich ihn als Bi* - also #Bisexual und #Biromantic sowie #Polyamorous und #Polygam

Thanks for responding!
I agree that there is a lot of shared history.
However, I assumed that you meant that you were both #Black and #Jewish. My mistake!
Anyway, there are many communities of #JewsOfColor. So often, those of us in the #NorthAmerican #Ashkenazi communities tacitly (and mistakenly) assume that "Jewish" means "North American Ashkenazi." Not so.

How #HarrysHouse Beat Beyoncé? You know. In #PlantationNation, even #Black #billionaires must be reminded periodically of their place. If you want their TOP awards, rather than a cobbled-together collection of lower-tier segregated genre prizes, don't get too famous, rich, or confident, you'll be perceived as 'uppity.' Even if you are #Beyoncé. Never make 'em nervous.
You know this is the truth, if you're honest.
Horrible, evil, #racist country & society we have here.

So if you ever want to chat with me about public sphere theory, #counterpublics, #race and media, #media #activism, #feminist media, #Black #media, and how the ways we use #technology and #media shape #politics and #culture, and always have, I'm your girl. I'll also talk to you about #grief, #dogs, and #hippie things. For now, I'm watching and grieving the once potential of #Twitter even as folks keeps finding space to make #jokes, #critiques, and #change there.
