Rather than trying to read the minds of white, slave-owning men who have been dead for 2 centuries, maybe we should just do the right things for people who are alive today.

it's a sad day in America

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 1830, President Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act, forcing Indigenous people who had lived in the region for centuries to migrate west in brutal and dangerous conditions. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/jmxsbO2zup

It takes a monster to kill children. But to watch monsters kill children again and again and do nothing isn’t just insanity—it’s inhumanity.

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

Schools scared to death.
The truth is, one education under desks,
Stooped low from bullets;
That plunge when we ask
Where our children
Shall live
& how
& if

[Jen Psaki @jrpsaki]

This is not rare. Guns are the leading cause of death for kids in the US. The shooting in Buffalo was the worst this year for less than two weeks. This is not rare.

I prefer Presidents who know that there are not “very fine people on both sides” when it comes to white supremacy.

[Barb McQuade @BarbMcQuade]

As ⁦@michele_norris⁩ writes,
“White politicians, White business leaders, White clerics, White educators, White leaders and White influencers need to denounce the supremacist agenda at the core of GRT.” I proudly join all who denounce white supremacy https://t.co/MhCJCdLTLZ

Congress should be working fervently to develop a plan to address and eradicate white supremacist terrorism.

Instead, state legislators across the nation are working fervently to ban CRT.

We need a revolution of values and leaders with courage and compassion.

Shorter Alito:

“Because we have a long history of oppressing women, the Constitution should always be interpreted to allow for oppressing women.”

This weekend marks a holy trifecta for the Abrahmic faiths.

Happy Ramadan, Happy Easter, and Happy Passover.

May we all work together for a world based in peace and renewal. ❤️❤️❤️

The White House just released the first official portrait of Judge -- soon to be Justice -- Ketanji Brown Jackson.

The photo was taken by Lelanie Foster, a young black photographer from the Bronx.

[Steven Beschloss @StevenBeschloss]

Russia is not a nation waging war. It’s a terrorist state committing mass murder.

"If Jackson's ratings hold up through her likely confirmation, she would be the most popular nominee to be confirmed since John Roberts in 2005," writes Harry Enten | Analysis https://t.co/Cdj89g4BBl

109 strollers and baby seats have been placed in Lviv’s historic city center in memory of the 109 children who have been killed across Ukraine since Russia’s invasion began.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

But people who have succumbed to lies and fear mongering about teaching on racism, civil rights, etc are saying they’re concerned about “discomfort” for white children and parents.

Meanwhile…Black children.

We can destroy racism in ways that are constructive for humanity.

[The Kyiv Independent @KyivIndependent]

A baby was born in Kyiv subway, now being used as a bomb shelter, overnight on Feb. 25.

Amid ongoing air raids as part of Russia’s war against Ukraine, people all across the country have been taking shelter underground and in subway stations.

[LaTosha Brown @MsLaToshaBrown]

I can’t tell y’all how much hope this photo gives me.
