“Not My King”: Protester Confronts British Monarch over Wealth Inequality https://t.co/bipasymKmD via @democracynow

People failing to understand that the reason why so many are actively NOT sad that the Queen is dead is bc she and the monarchy she ruled over are the reason why many of their loved ones didn’t live to 96, lovingly surrounded by family as they died. Make sense?

Atrocities start with words and dehumanization.
Atrocities unleashed upon millions in the ME, fueled by dictators labeled as reformists in the west.
The racist subtext: Afghans, Iraqi & Syrian lives don’t matter, for they are deemed inferior—“uncivilized.”https://t.co/hC1JAkIHym

Often not told today is the heroic story of 5 black men who were members of the Abakua secret society, who in an attempt to rescue the students were caught and executed as well.

Today there is a small plaque to remember them in the place where the execution happened

Pedestals that once held the likenesses of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson still sit empty. So where do we go from here?

My full statement on the actions I have taken in regard to Rep. Mike Nearman.

I believe he should resign immediately. He has already breached the public trust and endangered our ability to safely conduct the people’s business. #orpol #orleg

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Let's be clear. If Trump is too dangerous to send out a tweet or a Facebook post, he's too dangerous to be commander-in-chief. Donald Trump must be removed from office immediately and held accountable for his horrific acts of sedition, violence and chaos.
