Tyron McAlpin, the deaf Black man with cerebral palsy who was falsely accused of assault by Phoenix police, says he tried to point to his ears to tell officers he couldn’t hear them before he was punched 10+ times and tased 4x. This brutality remains unconscionable!

Some real talk for your Thursday

[Tarik Rashaan Davis @tarikrdavis]

It’s the racism. It’s the misogyny and misogynoir. It’s the transphobia, homophobia, and the xenophobia.

It’s the illogical, emotional and deep ID of America.

That’s why we’re here.

@RebeccaCokley @GailSimone Sure, I’ll muddy the water. In the warm bosom of the Palmetto State y’all is singular - for an individual or a singular group. For plural, we would say “all y’all.” You could just start making everybody from Pittsburgh and have them say “yins”

@Variety @AngeliqueRoche Damn damn damn, James!

“Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for women to be underdiagnosed with ADHD or other neurodivergent presentations. For Latina/x, that gap is even wider as there are significant barriers to access to treatment in general…” https://t.co/toF21It4k0

Here's saxophonist Benny Golson, who left us yesterday at age 95, pointing to his image in the famous 'Great Day in Harlem' photo.

With Golson's passing, Sonny Rollins is the last living musician in that iconic photo of jazz greats taken in 1958.

@AngeliqueRoche @NBCNews It’s hard sometimes to remember the days pre-Internet and the amount of work that folks like Phil Donahue put in to bring ideas and even fringe thought into the main stream.

INCEPTION was released 14 years ago today. A masterclass in how to blend digital and practical effects and one of the definitive films of Christopher Nolan, the making of story might have you believing it’s all a dream…
