It's a privilege to learn about
racism instead of experiencing
it your whole life.

Dear fundamentalist Christian Trump supporters: If Obama had held the Bible backwards and upside down, you would immediately have called him the Antichrist.

@acnewsitics @MetroManTO Also on this day 99 years ago. Tulsa. This protest by whites destroyed an entire black community killing up to 300.

Didn’t change a thing. Whole incident was written out of textbooks as an embarrassing episode for Tulsa’s white. It was something much worse for those 300.

Fun Fact: On this day in 1927, Trump's father Fred Trump was arrested at a KKK rally.

Authoritarians are fond of using any kind of social unrest as an excuse for a coup or an elimination of opposition. See Stalin’s purges etc etc etc.

[Barbra Streisand @BarbraStreisand]

While Trump was speaking today, peaceful protestors were being teargassed and cleared out of the way so he could walk over to the church for his photo op, holding a Bible which he has NEVER read.
And what's his solution to the all the pain people are feeling?

When black men peacefully take a knee they’re angrily called “sons of bitches” by the US president and are hated for being ‘disrespectful & unpatriotic.’ Is it really any wonder there’s violence in the streets now... ? #GeorgeFloydProtests

This Is The Exact Reason Why !!! This Isn’t Protecting & Serving.... #GeorgeFloydProtests

Twitter,

Help me identify these two NYPD police officers flashing WHITE POWER signs tonight and please let @NewYorkStateAG know who they are.

Their faces are visible. Someone out there knows these two racists.

These are @NYPDShea's officers. What is he going to do about it???

June 10th, 1857. Thoreau finds a snake’s skin in the yard. He thinks about how many creatures get to shed their skins. “Can’t I?”
