    I am endlessly entertained by white people who are surprised that there is a wide streak of political violence in American history. I suspect most African Americans are less so.

        I mean, what was the Revolutionary War if not political violence?

        Diseased minds--both elected and unelected--who worship Trump are the big problem we have to confront by voting.

        Charles, my own family of upper-middle-class "reasonable" white people looked down on me for years for sounding the alarm. They thought I was a hyperbalist. I suspect now they probably don't. But I'm not talking to them anymore.

        Our people have been screaming this into the void for so long we’re just about hoarse. Back home we say: “Some folk don’t believe fatback is greasy.” Much to our continued horror & heartbreak many still won’t listen 😱😭💔#TreeOfLifeSynagogue #KentuckyKroger2pic.twitter.com/9p7EEq2TeW

        Native Americans -- all 5 million or so that are left -- even more so, one suspects.

        This is why I have the history of racial injustice calendar by @eji_org in my office. Like all their work, it’s powerful, direct, and invaluable.
