In 1944, a group of white men lynched Reverend Isaac Simmons, a minister and farmer who owned 270 acres of land in Mississippi because they believed the land had oil deposits. Goal- to steal his land and profit from it.
Oh, they weren’t finished after killing the Reverend. The men then brutally beat his son and ran him out of the county.
This is one story of many where racially motivated killings of Black people in the Jim Crow South resulted in farms and land being violently stolen to profit and benefit white farmers.
This is what they’re hiding while telling Black folks to pick themselves up by the “bootstraps.”#FreshVoicesRise #BlackHistoryWithLana

@Jim_Jordan that's why we at the CLC have a very strict policy against increasing the penalty for a crime, doing that crime, lying about doing that crime in between bragging that you did that crime, refusing to stop doing the crime, and then whining about how it's not fair

While California may not know this, in the South a tailgate with friends & family is the only way to prepare for a big game. When Georgia hosts the 2025 #NationalChampionship , we'll make sure fans are able to tailgate! Even if it's at the state Capitol!!

@dutcher411@ericareport But she is a democracy and justice friend, and it would be literally the only way to keep the gavel out of the hands of a MAGA Republican.

@MattWallace888 Did you stop to think if that number was even plausible or REAL?
That would have been $270 MILLION on food services A quarter.
That would have 1/6 of last years operational expenses. Yeah that's a good joke but nothing more. It's as fictious as cryptocurrency.
@ChavisVirgina@FOX5Atlanta As a reverend, should he not want to think like Jesus. Jesus gave us the biggest gift and that’s choice. We have the choice to sin and the choice not too. Who are we take away someone’s choice? Like Christ, we must leave others to make their own choices.
Marjorie Taylor Greene got $180,000 in business loans forgiven from the PPP program but said it's "completely unfair" for us to forgive student loans for working- and middle-class Americans.
You can’t make this stuff up.
