@cava 🥴 For some reason, whenever I ask for dressing on the side, I get two cups filled only halfway. What’s that about? It’s happened at more than one location, across at least two states.

Powerful! 👏🏾 Listen to Fearless Fund CEO Arian Simone discuss a conservative activist group's recent unprovoked attacks against the Fund, which invests in women of color and works to ensure that they have equal access to resources in the business world. #FearlessFreedom

Black people are not taking the spots of Asian American college applicants. White legacy students are taking the spots of Asian American college applicants

There’s a noticeable lack of right wing funding and Ed Blum organizing to fight this injustice for some reason

@Xperience_Snr @dococt_ Right! Using quotation marks is crazy, too! I was listening for “pray it away.” Smh

So, if you’re looking for ways to help right now, here are some organizations doing important work: https://t.co/kFSoVoeXkT

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Affirmative action was never a complete answer in the drive towards a more just society. But for generations of students who had been systematically excluded from most of America’s key institutions—it gave us the chance to show we more than deserved a seat at the table.

In the wake of the Supreme Court’s recent decision, it’s time to redouble our efforts.

Humbled to be elected incoming House Democratic Leader.

Ready to get to work.

If you feel like you’re losing everything, remember that trees 🌳 lose their leaves every year and still stand tall and wait for better days to come.

If Kyrie Irving needs to apologize for sharing a documentary, how many television/newspaper/media executives, producers, etc. need to apologize for the false, racist, stereotypical, depictions of Black people across all media outlets that have led to violence and marginalization?

[Bishop Talbert Swan @TalbertSwan]

Hypocrisy is condemning @KyrieIrving for sharing the link to a documentary but having no smoke for @JeffBezos or @PrimeVideo for streaming the documentary.

PhD supervisors have two moods:

[Kamil Q. Brown @kamilqbrown]

Researchers’ epistemological choices are deliberate and absolutely fair game for critique. I’m learning the importance of seeing the moral and ethical intentionality in researchers’ decision-making as a demand of a critical-social-science researcher orientation.

Nury Martinez blaming the "situation" for getting the best of her and not the anti-Blackness and racism in her heart is rich. That's what we're talking about when we discuss denial and gaslighting about the r-word in Latino communities.

[Yvette Carnell 🇺🇸 @BreakingBrown]

This was about Latino politicians trying to dilute Black political power.

Nury Martinez’s bias against darker indigenous people was not the main issue, disgusting as it is.

For ADOS, this is about lineage more than skin color. This is Latino vs Black, not light vs dark

[Mark Stevenson @m_stevenson78]

I hope y’all are paying attention to this spin job coming out of LA. Anti-black racism couldn’t get Nury Martinez to resign but anti-semitic comments were the nail in the coffin? Where is this recording? WTF!!! This further proves my point that anti-black racism is tolerated.

[En(during COVID) @DEC0L0NIZE]

“Dear Latinos,
Being racist to other Latinos, Indigenous and Black folks will not bring you any closer to the whiteness that you crave so much.
And if this message bothers you, then it was probably meant for you.”

[uché blackstock, md @uche_blackstock]

Nury Martinez: Compared Black child to a “changuito" (monkey) & joked about beating him. Called Oaxacan immigrants “little short dark people.”

Also, Nury Martinez:"To all the little Latina girls across the city - I hope I've inspired you to dream beyond that which you can see."

[Bishop Talbert Swan @TalbertSwan]

It is not antisemitic to point out that Nury Martinez had refused to resign after calling a Black child a monkey and spewing other disparaging, anti-Black vitriol, yet, stepped down immediately after it was reported that she made anti Jewish statements. https://t.co/nkoUiOc6Ev
