    Voters need to trust the election process, regardless of who is operating the system. Mistakes were made in Iowa, and voters' confidence has been shaken. But people should not lose faith in our democracy. We must keep voting, while we demand accountability and improvement.

    The only good thing that might come out of this is a national consensus to stop letting a small and unrepresentative state like Iowa completely hijack the primary process every four years.

    Weren't arbitrary tests literally a key feature of Jim Crow voter suppression?

    the reconstruction south, one of this country’s great experiments in democratic governance, was powered by countless poor, illiterate men and women. you don’t need a formal education to be a good democratic citizen.

    many of the 76 men who wrote the south carolina constitution of 1868 had just been emancipated from slavery a few years earlier. some were barely literate. the constitution they wrote guaranteed public education, abolished race discrimination, and gave rights to women.

    If you think the delays are bad, wait until you hear about what happens in black or brown precincts across the country. We're used to waiting.

    Think about this: — Iowa is 90.7% white — Iowa is now the only state with a lifetime voting ban for people with a felony conviction — Black people make up 4% of Iowa's population but 26% of its prison population How is this representative of our electorate?

    I can’t stop thinking about the fact that Trump bought a Super Bowl ad to cast himself as the champion of black women prisoners. It’s mind boggling

    Yes, , the media made Trump engage in attempted extortion and obstruction, and then then you had to vote to acquit because journalists wouldn't stop reporting on stuff. You hear that a lot in places like Turkey and Russia, too. It's a global problem, really.

    The worst part of tonight's nonsense is the Iowa caucus non-event stepped on one of the biggest news stories in a while, which is that we found out tonight that TRUMP HAD A SECRET MEETING WITH THE CROWN PRINCE OF SAUDI ARABIA AT HIS (TRUMP'S) HOUSE A WEEK BEFORE THE 2016 ELECTION

    How is it that they make the campaign season 300 years long but demand the vote be counted so quickly that it requires an app? Count the voters and add up the results on paper, you ding-dongs! The media can wait. Accuracy is more important than speed!

    Today is the 150th anniversary of the ratification of the 15th Amendment to the Constitution. Since our founding in 1940 a core focus of ⁦⁩’s work has been devoted to challenging voter suppression schemes created to limit or deny the African American vote.

    Writer: I desperately want to finish my book. More than anything. More than I want coffee, or sleep, or love and affection Person: shouldn’t you be working on it then? Writer, pausing while reorganizing their refrigerator: how dare you

    Once sat in on a job talk where the candidate talked abt Ota Benga & Human Zoos in early 20cth . She argued that our modern equivalent is reality shows like Hoarders/600-lb-life etc. That's all I can think of every time I see the new Biggest Loser ads.

    In Opinion Last year, a U.S. Bank employee gave a stranded customer $20 so that he could get home on Christmas Eve, writes. "When U.S. Bank found out that it had such a generous employee, what did it do? It fired her."

    If you aren’t ready for criticism from a community you make art about, maybe you’re not ready to make art about that community.

    Somehow, no one objected en masse to white writers or directors on , or said they didn't deserve the awards they've won. No one is like, "NEAL BRENNAN SHOULDN'T HAVE WRITTEN WITH CHAPPELLE 'CAUSE HE'S A PECKERWOOD!"

    No one is censoring this woman. The book was published and it selling like gangbusters. 🙄 If you read the critiques, you'd know that the pushback was about its flattening stereotypes and general inaccuracies Kathleen.
