I will ALWAYS remind ppl that US birthright citizenship was created for Black Americans to secure their citizenship after slavery. It's a perfect example of how laws uplifting Black America have a universal benefit in the long run.
It’s also terrible for sleep, and higher temperatures are associated with higher levels of crime. Oh, and higher concentrations of CO2 in the ambient air literally impair cognitive functioning. Climate change is making us “dumber.”
Something feels wrong about this. The fire was Thursday. Boyle Heights has had all kinds of air quality alerts. They’re still fighting the fire Saturday and smoke is heavy from DTLA to Studio city ten miles away. No alerts for the new neighborhoods impacted?
Funny that they are just pretending LA is not currently filled with toxic smoke from a warehouse fire involving unknown chemicals and hoping nobody notices.
