Happy National Moth Week, a week dedicated to celebrating the beauty, life cycles and habitat of moths. Here's the native clearwing wasp moth. Despite the name and the convincing wasp-like appearance, this little guy won't sting you! #MothWeek#NationalMothWeek
I just voted. As I cast my ballot, I think of Guam, my former home, where about 150,000 Americans are denied this vote. Why? In 1901 the Supreme Court said Guam's “alien race” couldn’t comprehend “Anglo-Saxon principles.” It’s been 119 years, and this racism is still the law.
What do you think the headlines this morning would be if Biden had claimed last night that he had 3 or 4 Nobel Prizes?
The media as a whole is effectively pro-Trump not because the media likes Trump or wants Trump to win but because we have normalized his abnormal behavior.
100 years ago, the 19th Amendment gave women the right to vote. But we missed part of the story, as the efforts of Black suffragists don't appear in most history books. A @LibraryofVA panel on Thursday discussed why that is, as @raimondi_julia reports.
