He put this as succinctly — and irrefutably — as one can put it. Shouldn’t be courageous to say it when becoming the first Black anything in an organization, and yet it is courageous. Colorblindness is nothing but willful blindness.

I don’t think we talk enough about the long term political implications of the Black exodus out of NYC.
When a large swath of deep blue voters continually leave Northeast for blue dots in red states, their political influence is diluted.
I talk about that w/ @freedomrideblog.

Welp—Remember how @CDCgov claimed there was no “outbreak” at their CDC conference 3 weeks ago? ➡️Now we learn 181 cases of #COVID19 arose of 1800+ CDC staffers/guests…. So basically 1 in 10 folks at a single CDC conference caught COVID. Yet @CDCDirector Walensky dismantles reporting and they gaslight us it was nothing. #CovidIsNotOver

On February 3, a horrifying railroad accident took place. A Norfolk Southern freight train derailed in East Palestine, Ohio. You might've seen images of the flames, but you probably haven't heard that unions were trying to prevent this exact accident. 🧵

To everyone complaining abt College Board's AP AfAm Studies catering to Florida, here to tell you, this is not a 1st for them. They've done this time and again, w/APUSH in 2014-15, with AP World a couple of yrs later. #CollegeBoard is abt making bank, not cutting-edge education.

Really sad, devastating news. A water pipe burst on Friday and ruined a LOT of books at Third World Press, the country's oldest Black-owned publishing company.
They've launched a flood fund to get back on their feet. Please consider donating.

Keenan Anderson—a 31-year-old high school teacher & father—stopped LA police for help after an accident. They instead cuffed him, pinned him, & tased him repeatedly as he begged them to stop.
Keenan died of cardiac arrest from excessive tasing.
His crime—asking police for help.

The LAPD murdered Keenan Anderson. A beloved high school English teacher and father who FLAGGED THEM DOWN FOR HELP after a car accident. He was a threat to no one. He needed help and it cost him his life. The LAPD must be held accountable for this at all costs. #KeenanAnderson
