    Year-end update: My writing as A.V. Geiger will remain on hiatus indefinitely while I dedicate my efforts to COVID-19 response. Please feel welcome to follow my data editorial work for the ‘s COVID Racial Data Tracker 📊📈📝 Here’s our final thread of 2020 💔

    1 in 800 Black Americans have died from COVID-19 in 2020
    While the prospect of a COVID-19 vaccine brings hope to many people, it is important to remember the effects of COVID-19, especially in terms of lost lives this past year.

    Here’s some data I worked on for the in today’s White House press briefing

    A stark look at just how disproportionately black people and people of color die from COVID-19 in the U.S. in comparison to white Americans.

    Good to see this being widely acknowledged! Now what are we going to do about it?

    No one can tell me that if it had been a group of Black Lives Matter protestors yesterday that they wouldn’t have been treated very differently than the mob that stormed the Capitol. We all know that’s true — and it’s unacceptable.

    I’ve had federal officers in DC have guns pulled on me for being on a date sitting next to the Washington Monument. Just to ask my date if she was there on her “own free will.” Today - full display of those two sets of rules.

    I’m still in shock that not every person on screen isn’t face down for even being near this event as police and national guard arrive.

    Lest we forget White domestic terrorists have been storming state capitols, plotting to assassinate politicians, super-spreading COVID-19, murdering antiracist protesters and everyday people, and defending murderers. Today their violent insurrection reached the U.S. Capitol.

    What is happening at the Capitol is nothing like Benghazi. It is nothing like Iraq. It is nothing like “a third world country.” I am hearing so many of these comparisons on cable news. This is politics in America — the richest, most powerful country on Earth. Americans own it.

    1 hour before MAGA stormed the Capitol: Trump: "We're going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue... and we're going to the Capitol... we're going to try and give our Republicans ... the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country." He specifically incited it.
