What "press"? The broken and vindictive Times? The newly Murdochian Post? Hedge-fund newspaper husks? Rudderless CNN or NPR? Murdoch's fascist media? No. She can choose many ways to communicate her stands with others outside the old press and with the public directly. The old press can and should be bypassed.

Lewis Hamilton's Met Gala look by Burberry pays tribute to John Ystumllyn, an 18th-century black gardener in Wales....the outfit nods to Ystumllyn's legacy and the historic struggles and resilience of Black individuals. #MetGala"

Amazing find from the @RMGreenwich Caird Library archives. Fascinating 1928 correspondence between Marcus Garvey and Vice-Adm ret. Wm. Henderson on a host of thought-provoking subjects.
Kudos to Katherine Oxley for unearthing this.
