Saw Project Hail Mary last night and the only thing I’ll say is that there’s one scene where Ryan Gosling’s character runs two samples in a fully unbalanced centrifuge. Someone needs to be fired for that

NYC Mayoral race in a nutshell:

Five years ago today, George Floyd was murdered in broad daylight in an unpardonable, inhumane, dehumanizing act by police officer, Derek Chauvin, who nonchalantly pressed his knee into George’s neck for over nine minutes. NINE MINUTES.

I am praying for George’s family, especially for his daughter, Gianna, who is now 11. Gianna’s “Daddy” matters to her.

George’s life didn’t matter to Derek Chauvin. It still doesn’t matter to many today who make excuses for Derek’s brutality and even suggest pardoning the unpardonable.

But George’s life mattered and still matters to millions, who responded to viewing that knee on his neck for nine minutes with protest and efforts for policy change in legislative halls and corporate suites.

There were some positive results until there was what my father, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., called “white backlash.” In his book, ‘Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community?,’ Daddy wrote:

“The step backward has a new name today. It is called the “white backlash.” But the white backlash is nothing new. It is the surfacing of old prejudices, hostilities and ambivalences that have always been there. It was caused neither by the cry of Black Power nor by the unfortunate recent wave of riots in our cities. The white backlash of today is rooted in the same problem that has characterized America ever since the black man landed in chains on the shores of this nation. The white backlash is an expression of the same vacillations, the same search for rationalizations, the same lack of commitment that have always characterized white America on the question of race.”

So, 5 years later, we continue to grapple with racism in this nation and globally. But we will persist in organizing, creating community, and remembering George and so many others who were deemed unworthy to even breathe in America…to even live free or live at all in a nation that convicted indigenous and Black people of being casualties of imperialism and colonialism hundreds of years ago.

Let’s not give up on us, family.

We were taught about Anne Frank so it would never happen again, and every day I open this app and see the last words of countless new Anne Franks in real time...

It is deeply disappointing that H.R. 23 passed the House of Representatives, which would permit U.S. sanctions on staff of the ICC, an independent judicial institution dedicated to combating impunity for the gravest crimes known to humanity. The ICC is part of a global system of international justice of which the U.S. was a chief architect at Nuremberg and beyond. If the Senate follows suit, it will do grave harm to the interests of all victims globally and to the U.S. government’s ability to champion human rights and the cause of justice. https://t.co/wuxDgHnD9M
