#WhitenessAtWork, my latest edited collection, is now available! (Order on Amazon: https://t.co/NNFEC9ol9j.) I am so proud of our contributors, who laid bare how whiteness in the workplace has affected them. 🧵

Maybe it’s both.

[Michael Moreno @morenoreads]

Same.

I owe so much to so many people today. But above all, I can’t find enough ways to say how lucky I am that the most amazing woman in the world has chosen to spend her life with me. I love you, Genevieve, and I could never, ever have done this without you ❤️❤️❤️

“The endgame for all of us is vanquishing this whole notion of diversity,” Connerly said at a 2012 event for a white nationalist publishing house that also featured Peter Brimelow, a prominent white nationalist.

BREAKING: The architects of the war on affirmative action, poised to succeed in the Supreme Court, have close ties to leading white nationalists.

Ward Connerly, who led the 1st state ban on affirmative action in 1996 California, spoke at a white nationalist publishing house 10 years ago. Last month, he spoke w/ Edward Blum, who's behind the lawsuits against Harvard & UNC, in front of the Supreme Court. (2)

[Jean Guerrero @jeanguerre]

As @mmfa previously reported, Edward Blum –– Ward Connerly's successor in the legal assault –– started his litigation as an internal project at DonorsTrust, which has also given millions to white nationalist groups. (3) https://t.co/8IsEjRgoRx

[Jean Guerrero @jeanguerre]

The idea that they want a colorblind is demonstrably false. Financial records and video recordings reveal their motives. In Connerly's words: "the end game for all of us is vanquishing this whole notion of diversity." (4) https://t.co/BRXd8DvSlw

[Jean Guerrero @jeanguerre]

Yet, their propaganda is so persuasive that 73% of Americans, including most POC, believe race/ethnicity should not be a factor in admissions. As a Black man, Connerly has played an important role in mainstreaming the false notion that affirmative action harms POC. (5)

[Jean Guerrero @jeanguerre]

During oral arguments at the Supreme Court, Blum's lawyers claimed to value diversity. But the architects' long history of ties to racist groups shows what the movement’s goals really are: to preserve white power & to cynically enlist us all in that project. (6, end thread)

Latino artists have long contributed to the soundtrack of our lives.

The @librarycongress needs recommendations for songs/albums (+10 years old) by your favorite Latino artists or groups to preserve in the National Recording Registry. Leave a comment on who should be included👇🏼

A man called a non-emergency police line to report a 9-year-old Black girl who was spraying spotted lantern flies in New Jersey. https://t.co/CsZXnxYhqZ

[James Jansson @jamesjansson]

@CNN This guy is not only a racist, he made a false police report.

He knowingly referred to a child he KNEW as a "tiny woman". It was his intention to get her in trouble, or worse make the poor girl a victim of escalated police violence.

He deserves a criminal conviction.

@cardboardspouse @Artists_Ali Exactly, abuse doesn't erase privilege

[Patience @pjharpy]

@Artists_Ali Her family were literally world famous actors before movies *even existed* because they were THAT good and THAT well-connected. Abuse doesn't negate nepotism.

[D.A. Bullock @BullyCreative]

Minnesota cops said they cannot accept a potential ban on white supremacist affiliation in POST certified officer ranks, cuz it will hurt recruitment. Please let that sink into your every consideration of each and every city/police budget conversation.

A former Twitter employee wrote an essay about safety but didn't take responsibility for the targeted harassment directed at women of color that occurred under his watch. Prior to Elon, accounts were created to target VP Harris and Meghan Markle, and Twitter was like, "meh."
