@USSupremeCourt want to thank you for allowing the state of TX to take away women’s constitutional rights. If my female anatomy was a gun, you’d defend me loudly rather than saying nothing. You proved to be an arm of GOP. #RIPSCOTUS
@JoyAnnReid Agree! Having Black History erased from schoolbooks is the reason wppl don’t understand where Black folks are coming from. On Amazon if u search Ida B Wells & all those massacres are right there for reading. Just horrible how often it happened!
Hey everyone, thank you for your support. I’ve been released from jail. I am not the first Georgian to be arrested for fighting voter suppression. I’d love to say I’m the last, but we know that isn’t true. #SB202
Final thought of the evening:
As is true with so much other *crime*, if we took violent threats against women seriously, and punished the people when they did it, we'd stop so many of the violent threats against everybody and everything else.
Yes, again I ask everyone to please listen to our Black neighbors, what this does to them and how they feel. They know this side of America all too well! #BlackVotesMatter#BLM
@AdamSerwer@letmebefell All politics makes more sense when seen through the lens of the Black American experience. I say this as someone who has made the journey from seeing history without that lens and then with that lens.
A mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol in a treasonous insurrection.
This was a violent attack on our democracy.
Fueled by sycophantic members of the House and Senate.
They must also be held accountable.
Hey, if you wanna say GamerGate led to this without acknowledging that GG was a symptom of the larger systemic bigotry that has always existed, an extension of DV, and the failure of online platform holders to act right, I really don’t appreciate being used like that!!
This isn't even the ONLY noose on the scene. Make no mistake - this is what Trumpism is about. And as we know from the history of lynching: it is a message that white lawlessness can occur with impunity.
I’m asking everyone to please listen to how this act of domestic terrorism is affecting our cherished Black neighbors. I see you Miss Rachel Ann Williams, you matter #BlackLivesMatter#BlackTwitter#BLM
WOW - our Congressman @RepRubenGallego @RubenGallego is speaking TRUTH right now -- "The names of Cruz and Hawley should go down in history next to people like Benedict Arnold and Donald Trump, they are just traitors to this country, traitors to the Constitution.." YES - Gracias!
“Josh Hawley should resign in ignominy...Ted Cruz as well. But honestly, Mitch McConnell too...You know what? Please be quiet Lindsey Graham. You built this with the rest of them.” - @JoyAnnReid
