    I say all this to say representation matters and it would be deeply insulting for our thank you’s to black women not to include training of black women for political office, donating to black women candidates, and supporting them each and every step of the process.

    Part of what makes Trump so potent in harnessing his base is that he genuinely feels bitterly aggrieved all the time, for his whole life, despite his immense privilege and power. It’s the molten core of Trumpism.

    Racism kills. We must eradicate this evil. “African Americans who reported more experiences with racial discrimination are likely to age faster, adding to evidence that racism is not only a “social and moral dilemma” but also a “public health issue.””

    When folks ask, "why are you running for Congress?" This video is my response. Folks in NC aren't making a living wage, gun violence is ripping communities apart, the rent is too high & our planet is on fire. But, this man had time enough to make this video.

    One of the most popular misconceptions about black history is that over time, America has gradually become less racist and more tolerant. That is not true. Since y'all want a BHM thread, here's a thread about the evolution of racism in America.

    The far right is succeeding in moving the nation toward fascism in large part b/c Dems mount little resistance to it & focus more energy on attacking the left wing of the party while inching the party even further to the right.

    Both Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders would be the most progressive Presidents of my lifetime, and I'll do everything I can to get either elected if they're the nominee (ditto anyone.) But only one of them has the good sense not to hire people with this little self discipline

    is... Black ppl being featured in political ads by white politicians b/c Black voter turnout is key to how elections play out while Black ppl have least amount of access to $$$ for candidates/campaigns/organization & least amount of access to the ballot

    If I understand this correctly, the president awarded the medal of freedom to a talk radio host with a revoltingly long record of bigotry during the State of the Union — and the civility police are coming for Nancy Pelosi for tearing up paper? Is that right?

    God, Thank you for being a promise keeper. You reassure me with your consistent truth & exceed my expectations through your power within me. May I see your faithfulness all around me, even when I can’t feel that your working. I trust in you. I know you always come through.

    I ain’t never see someone take a screw driver and carefully nail by nail, screw by screw, dismantle a house before building a new one. I’m not interested in living to see us dismantle oppressive structures and systems because I believe we are capable of demolishing them.

    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.

    We all need to have this kind of focus and urgency on the disenfranchisement of voters that happens in every state—all throughout the year. Perhaps then folks won’t seem so frantic or appear to be this shocked. If we take it this seriously all the time, more solutions may emerge.
