  1. Pinned Tweet

    This broke my heart. A woman was speaking Assyrian on the phone in BART & was berated by a female white trump supporter. Watch if you can:

  2. this is what my twjtter mentions look like right now:

  3. This is a good thread & you should all read it.

  4. 5. They, like many victims of domestic abuse/sexual assault, also don't report to police because they fear retaliation. Keep this in mind.

  5. 4. People of color no longer feel safe reporting crimes to law enforcement, and they have (many) good reasons to feel this way.

  6. 3. But people need to also understand that the relationship between police & people of color are tainted.

  7. 2.We also need to understand why this is happening. I would also argue that the threat of white supremacy/nationalism is far more dangerous.

  8. 1. If people are making false claims abou Trump supporters attacking them, then that's abhorrent & dangerous. There is no excuse for that.

  9. Muslims: I love USA. I fear of hate crimes. White dude: I hate Islam. Ban Muslims. White moderates: wow white working class are hurting.

  10. People checking their mentions today after posting a tweet about Trump and the elections:

  11. We always reported and feature their voices. We didn't do so nearly enough for minority groups. We still don't.

  12. Stop with this "the press didn't listen to the white working class." All we ever did, since rise of Tea Party in 2010, was listen to them.

  13. This is why a lot of people of color (and women) don't report crimes to the police. They also fear retaliation.

  14. An Asian-American was attacked by Trump supporters. Called the cops. Cops arrested her instead.

  15. Whenever you're feeling blue just remember that Obama made Biden a friendship bracelet

  16. America's children right now be like:

  17. Apparently they're taking it out on Bush. Or think great depression was better than his administration.

  18. Not a good look, Ann.

  19. Thank you, Kerri. You're such a good person and light of positivity. We need more like you 💖
