“The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being.”

Louis CK is a good reminder that when people with power ask for respect it’s called “civility” and is sacred, but when people without power ask for respect it’s called “political correctness” and is the butt of jokes.

I think probably the most important lesson I learned this year is that sometimes people pretend you’re a bad person so they don’t feel guilty about the way they treated you.

The right-wing conspiracy theory that @Ocasio2018 is secretly wealthy reveals their deep discomfort with class mobility. With all the lectures about bootstraps, conservatives don’t believe a poor person can ever be their equal. She MUST be a rich girl in disguise.

True love is radical because it requires us to see ourselves in all people. Otherwise, it isn’t love. Love is revolutionary because it has us treat ALL people as we would ourselves - not because we are charitable, but because we are one. That is love’s radical conclusion.pic.twitter.com/IB5q0ko8VQ

Sometimes racism isn’t an action. It’s a look or a tone that makes it clear that you are not welcome. People of Color know what this feels like. White people often think you are making it up because they want “hard visual or audio evidence.” It’s like getting insulted twice.

The one lesson I've learned this year is this: you can not expect to speak up about race/racism etc and expect to get away with it: you WILL face relentless institutional harrassment. The second lesson is this, the one I'd still advocate: don't let it stop you.

Border agents have thrown out 3586 jugs of water left for migrants in the desert. They did this knowing that 7000 migrants have died attempting to cross. THIS is why the death of Jackeline Caal, the 7yo migrant who died of thirst in US custody, should be referred to as murder.pic.twitter.com/pzSZPruJdU

If you shut up, it affects your health. If you speak up, you’re seen as a troublemaker or worse. You can’t win.

@rsputcha writes powerful words about white womanhood & the colonization of yoga: "...it performs a sense of virtue-signaling which recenters Whiteness, all while providing a deflecting shield against scrutiny under the logic of “private spirituality."https://twitter.com/enews/status/1070166314256396288 …

Massachusetts was just named the most liberal state. Researchers almost picked California, but then they stopped for gas in Bakersfield.

Y’all throw “Trap” on all your brunches and yoga classes but don’t have any real respect or understanding for the people who really come from the hoods that you’ve curated your whole upwardly-mobile Black aesthetic around.
