BTS delivers a powerful performance of “ALIENS” at MetLife Stadium, with the crowd singing every word so loudly.
— The song is gaining a lot of attention following BTS' decision not to submit their music for Grammy consideration this year after the Recording Academy introduced the new “Best Asian Pop Music Performance” category.
— It confronts xenophobia, challenges prejudice in the Western music industry, and embraces their identity as cultural outsiders on the global stage.
Are you kidding?? "Using racial slurs"?? They raped women, they've raped children!!! Hell they've MURDERED innocent unarmed Americans on national television for fucks sake!!!
BTS members on their decision not to submit their work for this year's Grammy Awards:
"We have decided not to submit for the grammys this year. We hope that music can be heard and appreciated for what it is, rather than being defined by region or language. Thank you to Army and to everyone who has always supported us."
🚨🇲🇽 | Un grupo de mexicanos VALIENTES decidió plantarle cara a SPACEX, la empresa de Elon Musk, por hacer EXPLOTAR sus propulsores en el Golfo de México y dejar miles de fragmentos que terminan en las playas de Tamaulipas.
Excelente. México NO ES EL BASURERO de nadie.
Today we laid Lorenzo Salgado to rest at Immaculate Heart of Mary in Magnolia Park.
Our community’s grief is profound, but so is our resolve. May he Rest in Peace.
Her name is Megan Rapinoe. The US women's team were the best football team on earth. Four World Cups. Four Olympic gold medals. The men failed to qualify for the 2018 World Cup entirely. The women were still paid significantly less. Lower salaries. Lower bonuses. Lower prize money. Same federation.
Different rules.
In 2019 Megan and her teammates sued the United States Soccer Federation for gender discrimination. The federation fought back. Argued the pay gap was justified. Argued the men generated more revenue. The women kept fighting.
In 2022 US Soccer agreed to pay both teams equally - permanently. Every female player who had been underpaid received back pay. The most successful team in American football history had to sue their own federation to be treated the same as the men who couldnt even make the tournament. They won. Every penny.
ICE has shot and killed yet another man, this time a 26-year-old Colombian in Maine who was not the target of their investigation.
This comes after they killed a Mexican man, who was also not the target of their operation, in Houston last week.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was murdered by ICE on July 7. Another life lost to the fascist border regime.
Close the concentration camps and put the executioners on trial.

I want to spread awareness to this:
Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was 52 as was fatally shot by ICE agents yesterday during a traffic stop in Houston. He was a father, husband and business owner. I pray for his family.
“ICE OUT OF EVERYWHERE!”
Houston is in the streets tonight at the site of yesterday’s ICE murder of father and long-time resident Lorenzo Salgado Araujo to demand justice for his stolen life and an end to ICE terror in our communities once and for all.
