I don’t know where the dance world would be without Judith Jamison. Alvin Ailey made “Cry” specially for her & all Black Women. Her legacy & what she brought to the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater as a dancer & director changed culture as we know it.

To anyone who intends to come take away the freedom, opportunity, and dignity of Illinoisans, I would remind you that a happy warrior is still a warrior.

You come for my people – you come through me.

Donald Trump was elected by Americans to defend the interests of Americans.

The question we, as Europeans, must ask ourselves is, are we ready to defend the interests of Europeans?

Despite everything, I'm so grateful that the Harris campaign introduced America to Tim Walz and his entire family. I genuinely hope that his model of masculinity serves as a positive example for young men in desperate need of one.

Thank you Vice President @KamalaHarris for putting your faith in me, and selecting me as your running mate. Campaigning at your side was the honor and privilege of my life.

Yday, this is what I told my folks:

We have a professional & moral obligation to cover this administration, with energy, rigor & imagination. We are here to record what they do, when, and what the consequences are. That’s our job & our calling.

Wow! ♥️

We won't mince words. The reelection of Donald Trump is a disaster for the Boundary Waters. This is not hyperbole. This is not a case of Trump-Derangement Syndrome. This is based on Trump’s campaign promises and attacks he has already made on the Boundary Waters.🧵

While many are talking about losing hope or moving to other countries, Native people have survived under U.S. government leaders that wanted us dead since the very beginning. This is still Native land, and will always be Native land. We never had the luxury to stop fighting.

Mr Biden,
I need you to stand up, straighten your back and make some things shake before your departure

Jon Stewart’s 2-minute history lesson here is worth everyone’s time before we start confidently breaking out our theories of what happened

A few years back in Yosemite there was a problem with bears getting into trash cans and ppl said ‘why not make the cans more complex?’ And a ranger said ‘bc there is significant overlap between the smartest bear and dumbest human’ and this election feels like that quote to me

If you are looking for something to take your mind off politics — this interview I did with Quincy Jones years ago really is a great listen.

In order to vote in his first election, my father paid a poll tax. My dad. Not my great great grandfather, my father. He is very much still alive. He voted today. No poll tax required. I am so proud to his daughter.
