If we stop mentioning Nolan Xavier Wells, then this will be their legal play every time that there’s another Nolan. Our silence or speech sets the stage for what’s acceptable.
Unpopular opinion: I’m so tired of AI ads, AI menus, AI catalogues, AI posters, AI banners. 😭
Can we bring back REAL photos and REAL creativity, please? It’s such a turn off!
What an absolute waste of a decade. Imagine where we’d be if we had spent this time building a more equitable society. Instead everything is more expensive, you can smell the hate in the air, and people with Masters Degrees are struggling while the worst people on earth are making themselves richer. And I can’t think of one person in my life who supported this or didn’t who is actually doing better as a result of it. A decade of pure misery for no good reason.
In honor of Indigenous Peoples' Day, the word of the day is “tradition.” Together with our friend Zahn McClarnon we honor Indigenous people around the world and the many ways they share their culture and traditions every day. #IndigenousPeoplesDay
NEVER FORGET WHAT THEY DID TO FANNIE LOU HAMER.
In 1963, Fannie Lou Hamer was arrested in Winona, Mississippi, after helping Black Americans register to vote. While in custody, she was brutally beaten by police and other prisoners under their direction. The injuries left her with lasting physical damage.
Her crime? Demanding a right that America claimed its citizens already had.
Hamer was a sharecropper who understood that the right to vote was about far more than casting a ballot. It was about having a voice in a country that had spent generations trying to keep Black people powerless.
They threatened her. They attacked her. They tried to make an example of her.
But she refused to be silent.
She went on to challenge the political system that excluded Black Americans, speaking before the nation at the 1964 Democratic National Convention and exposing the violence and discrimination Black voters faced in Mississippi.
Fannie Lou Hamer's story is a reminder that many of the rights people take for granted today were secured by people who paid an extraordinary price to demand them.
They wanted her to be afraid. Instead, she made America listen. History must never forget her name.
To keep these stories alive, we have uncovered and documented crimes against Black people that have remained unanswered.
