You know someone who had an abortion. You love someone who had an abortion. Sit with that. Then ask yourself what these people, who you love, deserve.

For so many people, working in the eight billion-dollar Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Industry is the most radical thing they'll do. This is precisely the problem.

Immensely disappointing. Do better!

[Scott BonDurant @sbondu00]

Ugh.

Say it with me now: Asian American is a POLITICAL identity, not an inherently cultural one.

Asian American is a choice to find and fight for shared political goals across disparate experiences and ethnic identities.

If your "why is the birthrate decreasing" story doesn't talk about student debt, untenable childcare and healthcare costs, housing costs, patriarchy & the enduring unequal distribution of labor in the home it is not a good "why is the birthrate decreasing" story

The establishment wanted to use George Floyd case & the conviction of Chauvin as evidence that the system can work, offering Chauvin up as the sacrificial lamb to preserve the policing system. But public awareness & the national conversation has moved beyond them to demand more.

I deliberately tell my students not to be devil's advocates in discussions because it normalizes disingenuous argument and leads into gaslighting. There's no point in arguing from the perspective of evil. Nothing good comes from that.

Kim Potter’s resignation means nothing because this is an institutional problem, not a personnel issue

[Keisha Lance Bottoms @KeishaBottoms]

The passage of SB 202  is deeply disappointing. This divisive bill is unnecessary and is designed to suppress voter turnout in communities of color and other minority groups. It is shameless to change the rules of the game simply because you lost.
