Critical questions about the ethics of the archive (not just the silence of perpetrators/their descendants, but also the safety of those African Americans who would speak and/or preserve). https://t.co/JyFV3DIOCs

@rhizome @newmuseum 💯💯💯 Thanks!

An excellent review of recent literature on the complex interweaving of group and individual identities and how they're negotiated in the search for justice and equity. https://t.co/q65NDgIH8C

A much more detailed take on a point I keep trying to make: what is so terrible about #Kavanaugh's behavior is not its monstrosity, but its pervasive normalcy. I.e., (violent) "misogyny is at the very least as American as beer and baseball." https://t.co/Y4RZvDniYg

What Brian Kemp is doing is shocking and appalling even by Republican standards. How can he be allowed to control voter registration for his own election? https://t.co/cAutAYELIi

Oh how I wish we could deprive the Republicans of their Senate majority. We need a voting miracle these #midterms... https://t.co/myLDoNcSn0

It was racism, y'all. "Both in the Republican primaries and in the general election, white voters’ attitudes about African Americans, Muslims and immigration were more closely associated with how they voted than were any strictly economic concerns." https://t.co/aSBL4JTYZI

[Megan Driscoll @megandriscoll]

This has got to be the most typical Republican position I've ever seen - being for the "necessary pain" of a policy as long as he doesn't feel it. But they're all about inflicting pain on others. https://t.co/vjDZTLWy6o

1/ Ahead of today’s #KavanaughHearings, some, including @realdonaldtrump, asked why Dr. Christine Blasey Ford didn’t report her experience sooner.

There are a lot of reasons victims of sexual abuse don’t immediately speak up. And a lot of reporting on the subject, too.

[FiveThirtyEight @FiveThirtyEight]

The GOP’s “witnesses don’t remember/corroborate” argument is very much undermined by their unwillingness to call Mark Judge to testify. https://t.co/HtWggA5xaS

Thinking of & thanking Anita Hill

[Megan Driscoll @megandriscoll]

Dr. Blasey Ford, your nation is honored and humbled. Thank you. #KavanaughHearings #BelieveSurvivors

[Megan Driscoll @megandriscoll]

Unpopular opinion: I appreciate the @nytimes and think they do important journalistic work and are generally good about self correction. But @nytopinion is a dumpster fire.

[DVS @DVSblast]

"we at newspaper have recently been made aware that sexual assault is serious. this occurred between 11am and noon today"

[Pdrvelez @PDRVelez]

The constant humilliation of women.

The constant humilliation of POC.

These USA white men thrive on it. They enjoy it.

[Megan Driscoll @megandriscoll]

Did Hatch just cut off Dr. Blasey Ford in the middle of her recounting what happened to his own ringer?????????? #KavanaughHearings #BelieveSurvivors
