Fellow white women: I've spent the last decade organizing you and I know firsthand the impact you can have when you use your economic and political power for good. This MUST be the election when a majority of us help elect the first woman, a Black woman, President. That means...
I’m already annoyed by this conversation because for years, WNBA players have fought for more money. And when they were outspoken, so many of y’all told them to shut up or reminded them how they had no value The NBA has had 50+ years of investment, media coverage, etc. After 27 years, the WNBA will not be the current NBA. So stop comparing them.
Further context: This salary is for four months of basketball (40 games). Players also receive a free apartment + car. That doesn’t make the salaries acceptable, but now you know why so many women’s players play overseas to boost/supplement their income.
Weaponizing this information against WNBA players is another form of misogyny. These women have been dreaming of playing professionally in front of American audiences their whole lives.
Instead of clowning and reminding them of what they’re not — buy the merchandise, go to the games, and watch the games on television.
Very easy to criticize when most of y’all couldn’t get paid to compete at anything.
Today is the day, North Carolina!

No Borders. No Carbon. Its going to take us a long time to work out how to get there, but if those aren't our baseline goals, then we are merely making the situation worse. Start thinking, helping, learning, educating.
As a brutal atheist, I admire the electro mechanics that has led to thought. And I feel there’s a place, scientifically, to revamp the notion of a soul. Every configuration of neurons is unique and we undeniably know a person when we see one
Congratulations to our newly-elected Chair @abreezeclayton, one of the youngest chairs in NC history! 🎉 Democrats are ready and excited to get to work under your leadership. Onward!
❤️ If you’re like me and doing something helps (I mostly just feel helpless and broken right now), here’s something that helps: Contributing to the arts and music programs at Lakewood Elem that Jackson loved so much: https://t.co/spKmkv4Rty
We made over 151,000 calls to senior citizens in Texas tonight. One of our vols talked to a man stranded at home w/out power in Killeen, hadn’t eaten in 2 days, got him a ride to a warming center and a hot meal. Help us reach more people, join us tomorrow: https://t.co/WOLn2HCrm1
I was diagnosed at stage 3 colon cancer at the same age as @chadwickboseman. This isn't just a tragedy, it's a trend. Colon cancer is a top 3 cancer, it's more deadly than breast or prostate cancer, and it's skyrocketing in young people
I don’t know why some folks are so shocked that NC, SC & MS are winnable. If Dems organize, run & fight for a progressive agenda, esp. among poor & low wealth ppl, they can win across the South.
Well, while he's refusing to quarantine, let's just go ahead and vote him out.

You are being set up to blame each other for the spread of COVID-19 to distract you from the deliberate failures of governments and corporations who've contributed far more to the pandemic.
