    White men really do say "fuck it, I'll run for President" in the same way women say "fuck it, I'll get bangs."

    This honors the 6 million Jews murdered & millions of others victimized—including members of the LGBTQ community—by the Nazi regime. We remember Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel, whose legacy of fighting to end bigotry & hate around the world endures.

    There's always been an extreme right - literal Klansmen - at some remove from the mainstream right, but most of what gets called "alt-right" as a middle space in between is flowing from mainstream groups & publications. People aren't moving from militias in the woods to punditry.

    It was so special to see you today, . I told her that she is showing people what a racial and economic justice agenda looks like; shaping public discourse. She said, "well, we do it together." Indeed. I'll be thinking of her words tomorrow.

    Just a reminder that the Holocaust only ended 74 years ago. There are still fewer Jews alive today than there were in 1939.

    1 in 4 US women under the age of 45 have had an abortion. Abortion is healthcare. Healthcare is a right. That doesn’t change just because you happen to be pregnant.

    Reminder: - Slavery ➡️ Jim Crow + Redlining ➡️ War on Drugs ➡️ Mass Incarceration - Black Americans & PoC are far more likely to be convicted + sentenced longer than White Americans for similar crimes. - Our system routinely criminalizes poverty + exonerates wealth

    To avoid looking completely + utterly out of touch w/ the reality our prison system: Instead of asking, “Should the Boston Bomber have the right to vote?” Try, “Should a nonviolent person stopped w/ a dime bag LOSE the right to vote?” Bc that question reflects WAY more people.

    Telling people “I don’t want kids”: -“You’ll change your mind one day” -“When you meet the right person...” -“You don’t understand, you’re not a parent” Telling people “My bloodline ends with me” -Dramatic -Your bloodline feels sacred and mystical -Vaguely threatening
