I recently contributed to a cause that really touched my heart. A Black veteran and father is facing an unimaginable situation. The Trump administration has detained him. If you can, please consider donating or sharing his story. Every little bit helps. https://t.co/PEM7ZRc8Wg

Just days ago, 10-year-old Jordan Hill was dead. Struck by a truck while riding his ATV in Liberty, MS. The driver—Cody Rollinson—didn't stop, didn't call 911, and never checked on him; he just came back to grab his broken mirror from the accident while this baby lay bleeding out on the street. He had weed in the car, a suspended license, Confederate flags flying outside his house... and still, he walks free. Charged with simply leaving the scene of an accident and possession of marijuana. Seriously? This wasn't an accident. It was an execution soaked in apathy. We demand: Cody's arrest & prosecution Transparency from Amite County Accountability from Mississippi officials A public reckoning with this injustice Call to let your voices be heard.

Museums, get ready. Museum Trustees and Administrators, get your minds right. No knee bowing to these racists: Time to connect your in house legal teams with lawyers across the country. Get ready to sue the hell out of these clowns. Harm? Racial discrimination in preserving historical memory. Force these clowns into the courts and break their legal backs. Enough.
I read a 💔 story today about the creator of Strawberry Shortcake/the Care Bears,
Muriel Juneberry Fahrion, who gets 0 royalties from the endless products made from her IP, all bc in the 70s she was work for hire 🥺
She lives on Social Security and her independent online store.
They don’t want you wearing masks for COVID protection or at protests, but they have masked agents with no identification snatching you up on the streets — who will most likely press “resisting” charges (re Mahmoud Khalil vid) if you don’t go with them — and you just have to go😐
@WriterMichael_ roughly 60-85% of all businesses fail, so imagine telling all poor people that simply investing your finite resources needed for survival into *some* business that will statistically fail within 5 years… on top of that, they’ll have nothing to fall back on.
@WriterMichael_ Not only is it rare, but it doesn't scale. It's next to impossible for everyone in a country to become a millionaire at the same time. Your becoming a millionaire depends on most people not becoming millionaires. So it's terrible as general advice, or as a solution to poverty.
