As an Indian American who is raising children of a different race than my own, I want to acknowledge the foresight of VP’s mother Dr. Shyamala Gopalan who raised her girls in the embrace & culture of the Black community, being clear about their identities. https://t.co/05wcbdHFlL

[Bill Kelly @billkellytexas]

Imagine if they put the same effort into an accurate outage map as they do putting their CEO on social media.

I’m at 144 hours without power. Since their new map was released, I’ve been shown as “energized” along with my neighbors who are also without power.

Nice hard hat.
