The biggest impediment to racial justice is this country is the denial of systemic and structural racism by a large portion of whites. Before Ferguson, it was somehow acceptable to say, “I don’t believe systemic or structural racism exists, yet I am not a racist.” 1/

🔵 “But I need y’all to stay in this fight. The war is not over. 2028 is around the corner. So Ashley Moody, you better get it right. Cuz we’re coming for you.” Democrat Angie Nixon warns Republican Sen. Ashley Moody during her election night speech that the fight for Florida’s Senate seat is far from over. Tonight’s special election was to fill the remainder of Marco Rubio’s term, meaning the seat will be up for election again in 2028.

#Urgente. Qué pasó: @olabini, salía de un supermercado en el norte de Quito cuándo fue interceptado por un carro de donde salieron 4 personas y le dijeron que eran de migración, lo retuvieron y lo trasladaron a las oficinas de migración frente al mall el jardín. JAMÁS LE PRESENTARON NINGUNA ORDEN DE AUTORIDAD COMPETENTE. Al llegar a migración me dijeron que le habían revocado la visa pero no me han enseñado hasta el momento ningún documentos que avale su retención. Cabe señalar que el juicio en su contra prescribió y todas las medidas cautelares le fueron levantadas. Presentaremos un Habeas corpus de forma inmediata @EcuavisaInforma @JacquelineRodas @teleamazonasec @AnderssonBoscan

NEW § Abi Noda and Tim Cochran explain that it's valuable to capture both attitudinal and behavioral qualitative metrics. These allow us to measure the otherwise unmeasurable, providing missing visibility and necessary context for quantitative data. martinfowler.com/articles/me…
