[Don’t Boo…Revolt! @BreeNewsome]

USA is not a stable democracy.

USA has its own internal threat from an extremist political faction that wants to install a theocratic regime & engages in terrorism to achieve its goals.

They’re 1/2 the govt.

The nation-building project

*here👇🇺🇸*

is also failing.

Castro was an antiracist champion against policies that free violent cops, that criminalize migrants fleeing violence, that bar women from making their own reproductive decisions, among other things. I will miss his voice.
