I don’t know a single person - male or female; man, woman or gender nonconforming - who hasn’t been harassed, assaulted, abused, exploited or raped. What a horrific world we live in, sustained by the rampant and normalized abuse of literally everyone.

Such a powerful visual

The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel –

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.

Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

Revisiting one of my favorite passages from an interview with Toni Morrison:

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

This is the first poem that appears in my new book, Above Ground. I’ve been thinking a lot about the simultaneity of the human experience. How joy sits alongside sorrow. How wonder sits alongside despair. How we carry all of it all at once.

@hallucinogen_ep A life of ease 😌

[Zoé @ztsamudzi]

The anti-trans position is fascistic; we should aspire to be antifascist.

Publish that repeatedly with explanations about what that means, how to understand it, and how to practice a social refusal that fights to protect our kin and prevent them from dying preventable deaths.

the people want a COLA

This is breaking my heart

Joshua was inside Club Q when the gunman entered. He ran and hid. Heard the gunman being “beat up.” Tells @BeedieonTV “This was our only safe space in The Springs. Where are we gonna go?”

No amount of DEI trainings can protect Black people in America.

Millions of young ppl flooded the streets in 2020 to end racism & police brutality: not much has changed. Biden pledges to give cops $32mil; no movt on student loans & debt; no mov't on decriminalizing weed; no mov't on climate; upholding the status quo..
