The whitewashing of slavery continues.

It is pronounced "SLAVERY"
Not "TRADE SCHOOL."

How many lashes of the whip did slaves have to endure while learning those trades?

How many families destroyed when slave masters raped the wives of those blacksmiths?

How many freed Black men were able to actually USE their acquired skills without being beaten or murdered by White men outraged that they had risen above their station?

How many CENTURIES of free labor benefitted the White men who then created a system designed to ensure these blacksmiths, tailors, and shippers could not get loans, or property in certain areas?

GTFOH with the bullshit white-washing.

It’s VERY weird that Jim Jordan & MAGA Co. are requesting info on unaccompanied minors and taking unauthorized photos. What’s with these guys and violating privacy?

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

Dear Marjorie Taylor Greene,

Imagine if Democrats somehow got ahold of a photo of Ivanka Trump having sex, and held it in front of the world to see. You know very well, you would be outraged.

If Hunter Biden violated the Mann Act, you can refer it to the DOJ. We don't need you to show the country photos of Hunter Biden having sexual intercourse with women in order to prove your point.

We get it. Hunter Biden was messed up. He was doing stuff that was illegal, and he could have been charged for more than he was charged with. The same goes for a lot of people in this country, all while there are thousands of people in prison for marijuana crimes.

We don't need to see your perverted photos of a private citizen having sex in order to understand what your point is. This is trash, and you know it. You simply don't care.

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

Democracy is facing unprecedented threats from MAGA Republicans.

That's why Senate and House Democrats are reintroducing the Freedom to Vote Act.

We will show Americans that Democrats are fighting for them and fighting for democracy.

#MarjorieTaylorGreene is sick and the #GOP has turned The House into jokers playhouse

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

🚨 OMG. Marjorie Taylor Greene just held up photos of Hunter Biden engaged in sex acts
at today’s congressional hearing and we have the video.

Greene issued a warning that “parental discretion is advised” before holding up multiple photos showing sex acts.

She held up the montage with one photo of a nearly naked woman and another that, while redacted, appeared to engaged in a sex act.

Her comments came as she questioned two IRS special agents who led an investigation into Mr. Biden’s tax crimes.

This is absolutely outrageous behavior. She should be reprimanded and removed from the chambers immediately.

She should also be prosecuted for revenge porn.

This hearing could potentially watched by children. Where’s the right-wing outrage?

I hope Marjorie is given a rude awakening and charged over January 6 by the time Jack Smith finishes his investigation.

She should be expelled.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Justice Alito accepted tens of thousands of dollars in lavish vacation gifts from a billionaire who lobbied to cancel the student loan forgiveness.

After the gifts, Alito voted to overturn. This SCOTUS’ corruption undercuts its own legitimacy by putting its rulings up for sale.

[Cenk Uygur @cenkuygur]

The Supreme Court says people can deny creative services based on their religious beliefs. So, does that mean that people can now refuse to serve Bar Mitzvahs and Eid celebrations, etc.? Certainly, conservative Christians could have religious objections to serving other religions. So, this is literally a religious test for receiving service from a public business. God help us all.

Republican hypocrisy on student debt relief is stunning.

My daughter: “Papa, can we watch The Cosby Show where your big sister made you a shirt and you didn’t like it?” It’s the 1st time in many many years I’ve seen the entire episode. I genuinely laughed my ass off!

Congrats on screwing over other people of color, ma'am! (Particularly those whose efforts in civil rights paved the way for your family to come to America!)

@JusticeThomas67 #ClarenceThomas, you may need this clip to refresh your view on equality

[CSPAN @cspan]

CLIP: From President Johnson's 1965 @HowardU commencement speech: "You do not take a person who, for years, has been hobbled by chains and liberate him, bring him up to the starting line of a race and then say, 'you are free to compete with all the others.'"

[Bishop Talbert Swan @TalbertSwan]

This two bit, self loathing, sycophantic, white supremacy apologizing, uncle ruckus, benefited from race-based preferences throughout his entire career, yet sided with conservatives to overturn affirmative action.

Clarence Thomas was admitted to Holy Cross in 1968 in part because the school was actively looking for Black students.

He was admitted to Harvard Law School in 1971 right after it adopted a “race conscious“ admissions policy, but chose to go to Yale at the exact moment it created its first explicit affirmative action program with a goal of 10% minority enrollment.

Thomas was one of 12 Black students in the class of 175. His application was evaluated separately and he received special consideration because he was Black.

When Thomas left Yale he was hired by John Danforth, the Attorney General of Missouri. Danforth admitted it was because he was seeking to have a diverse office and that Clarence Thomas was hired because he was Black.

Thomas left Danforth’s office to work for Monsanto at a time when the company was looking to hire Black lawyers. He went back to work for Danforth when he was a US senator and was looking to diversify his staff.

He then went to work for Reagan’s Department of Education and was offered the job in part because he was Black.

He then became chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, a position that six Black women turned down before he accepted it.

His entire career was a result of affirmative action.

This man epitomizes hypocrisy and has always been an enemy to Black progress in this nation.

#SCOTUS
#AffirmativeAction

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

For decades, the Supreme Court recognized a college’s freedom to decide how to build a diverse student body and provide opportunity.

Today, the Court walked away from precedent, effectively ending affirmative action in higher education.

I strongly disagree with this decision.

[Leonard Shaw @LenShaw08]

#ClarenceThomas himself does not understand his thought capability

[Michael Eric Dyson @MichaelEDyson]

This is the face of a man who climbed the ladder of affirmative action to his present perch of power only to help destroy the very ladder on which he ascended. This is not only the mark of deep ingratitude & disavowal of history, but a withering betrayal of justice & democracy.
