Nolan Wells' mother is half Asian and this Asian comrade is telling Asians to support Nolan because some White "friends" have done the same thing to an Asian lady.

In 1946 WWII veteran Maceo Snipes was shot in his back by the KKK the day after he became the first Black person to cast a vote in Taylor County, Georgia.
After he was shot, Mr. Snipes walked three miles to the hospital with his mother. For six hours doctors left him waiting and bleeding. By the time he was seen, he needed a blood transfusion. The doctors said the hospital had no “black blood.” Snipes died two days later.
This is why I will vote in every election. The day I stop voting is the day I stop breathing. #DemsUnited #BlackHistoryWithLana
Today I learned the first black independent Label was founded in Houston and their first artist was Big Mama Thornton with the hit Elvis stole “You ain’t nothing but a hound dog”
Can we talk about the way Jill Scott flipped, “The Way” on her Tiny Desk. This arrangement made an already perfect song even more perfect. And those BGVs go crazy. Give this queen her 10s.
Flags at half mast speak loudly about who a nation chooses to honor.
When Charlie Kirk, a racist agitator who trafficked in division and grievance, died, Trump moved swiftly to lower the American flag, a symbolic gesture of national mourning.
But when Reverend Jesse Jackson, a global civil rights icon, freedom fighter, and lifelong advocate for justice, dignity, and unity passed away, there was no such urgency. No national gesture. No unifying call to honor a man whose life’s work helped expand democracy and human rights for millions.
Instead, the president took to social media to center himself rather than the legacy of a giant who marched with Dr. King, negotiated for the oppressed, and spent decades bringing people together across race, class, and nation.
Let that contrast sink in.
A figure known for stoking division is memorialized with the full weight of presidential symbolism, while a civil rights statesman whose mission was reconciliation, equality, and global justice is met with indifference.
That is not just an oversight.
That is a statement of values.
History will remember who was honored, how they were honored, and who was quietly minimized.
And it raises a sobering question:
What does it say about the soul of a nation when a divider is mourned with national symbols, but a unifier is not?

This is Office David Rose, who was killed during a mass shooting at the CDC by an anti-vax extremist. Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who oversees the CDC, did not attend Rose’s funeral but found the time to speak at Charlie Kirk’s memorial.
RETWEET to honor Officer Rose! ❤️
