Remember when Google dropped this Black History Month commercial in 2020?

That’s what honoring Black history looks like, telling the truth loudly, not sanitizing it when it makes people uncomfortable.

Happy Black History Month.

It is wild to me how any semblance of professionalism is out the door. And institutions don’t care about being bottom of the barrel at all any more

It's that magical time of year when private jets descend on a Swiss mountain village to discuss climate change and poverty! Anyway, here's my annual reminder. I'll stop posting this when they stop avoiding the real issue: their own massive tax avoidance 💰

Happy 111th birthday to Mother Viola Fletcher, the oldest living survivor of the Tulsa massacre in 1921.

We will not stop fighting for reparations for the Tulsa massacre and other acts of physical and systemic violence perpetrated against Black Americans.

“Too few Black institutions reach 100 years, so it is a momentous occasion indeed for the #SchomburgCenter to celebrate this remarkable achievement,” said actor LeVar Burton said in a statement to @BlackEnterprise. #Schomburg100 #Harlem

"The case law is now abundantly clear that when the FCC is powerless to protect consumers online, the states can step in to protect their residents," Love to see states step UP for their people. This is how you do it! #equity https://t.co/pn2MA5bozp

Kurt Vonnegut said “We’ll go down in history as the first society that wouldn't save itself because it wasn't cost effective” and damn if that isn't exactly how this is all playing out

Not at all surprised to see AI out here gaslighting folks.

[Avram Piltch @geekinchief]

Google AI says that if you copy someone else's AI-generated art that that is plagiarism.

Today we say goodbye to this great blue bird

This logo was designed in 2012 by a team of three. @toddwaterbury, @angyche and myself,

The logo was designed to be simple, balanced, and legible at very small sizes, almost like a lowercase "e", a 🧵
