If you’re a parent living in Texas I need you to understand that two billionaires have effectively dropped hundreds of millions of dollars into the pockets of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor to defund and erode our public schools.

Our state is being bought and sold!

“I don’t do politics”

Baby, politics is gonna do you, regardless.

Your mayor, council person, state rep, all the way up to president, do not care if you do politics or not.

The laws impact you.

It’s important that you know what is going on.

One of my biggest mistakes in academia is assuming scholars who are racialized as White and study racial inequality understand the role of race in their interpersonal lives.

Just thinking again about the 2015 study that found that almost one-third of the U.S. population are informal caregivers who collectively provide about 1.2 billion hours of UNPAID WORK every week, the equivalent of about 30.5 million full-time care aides. UBI will reach them all.

At this point an undecided voter is just a Trump supporter too embarrassed to say it publicly.

I’m still not over Michelle Obama’s “affirmative action of generational wealth” line. That was pure brilliance and masterful shade.

Tim Walz is a richer man than Donald Trump ever dreamed of being.

Lemme just say this... Michelle Obama wearing braids during the DNC is a visual example of the evolution of hair in American politics.

Donald Trump is like an old boyfriend who you broke up with, but he just won't go away. Bro, we broke up with you for a reason. — Hakeem Jeffries

OMGGGG!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[Audrey Wauchope Lieberstein @audreyalison]

No one in that family is telling Gus Walz to be quiet or calm down. Not one of them has flinched at his tears and screaming. Do you know how rare this is?!!! These are not just good people, they are extraordinary parents and role models.

Ed leaders, if you insist on making your teachers attend your beginning of the year convocations, make sure your program matches the level of energy as last night’s DNC.

White people are not "tired of the division," because if they were, they'd abandon their racist ways and engage in restorative justice.

[M.S @MalaakSafa]

Honestly the best piece of advice I can give to younger girls trying to figure life out is to completely ignore men. I'm not being quirky or cute when I say that, I mean it seriously. Ignore men's judgments of you, ignore their insincere compliments, ignore their half-assed romance.
Focus on developing yourself. Practice your art, play sports, do theater, volunteer, spend time with your friends, but do not put substantial effort into pleasing men. They'll be there for you to pursue when the time comes and if you want to. But nothing will waste your youth more than fighting for male acceptance.
