This whole event (Obama Library dedication) was lovely. The vibe was so uplifting.

A good reminder if you are white and get holiday pay tomorrow:
Mara Abolish I.C.E.@mauratwit.bsky.social · 2y agoWhite friends, especially white friends receiving holiday pay today… You have benefited from the unpaid labor of Black folks your whole life. Consider doing your own personal #Reparations today. It can take many forms. Look for Black Americans on #MutualAid. Patronize Black-owned businesses.

I'm never scrolling past a gift link 🎁. Thank you to friends who are generous sharers. Happy to return the favor if you ever want to read an Atlantic article.
Full community defense required a full complement of tactics.
Davis Senseman@thatbaba.bsky.social · 2mo agoI hope people realize that even if the ‘evidence’ the DOJ produces against our neighbors ends up surfacing actions they personally may not agree with, those actions all helped contribute to why those federal goons are no longer terrorizing our city the way they did this winter. All of it mattered.
Iraq playing their hearts out against one man team Haaland (Norway). #2026worldcup
One commentator for France v Senegal is just insufferable. We get it. France is slacking. Mbappe is sloppy. Now shut it. 🙄😒
I'm rooting for France because the last world Cup final was the best soccer game I have ever seen in my life and I'd love a repeat.

In a society that actually cares about people, someone who's even believed to be stealing diapers would be met with assistance, resources, and money to make sure they would never again feel like they must steal for their basic needs. In the U.S., we respond by sending government sanctioned killers.
Ashton Pittman@ashtonpittman.bsky.social · 2mo agoKohen Wiley, a 1-year-old child, is dead after a Mississippi police officer shot into a car and killed him. Family members say his mother was holding him in the passenger seat. The officers were responding to a shoplifting call over a box of diapers at the Senatobia Walmart.

Joyce Beatty is why the name came off the Kennedy Center. Her focus and tenacity... It should escape no one that she's also a Black woman.
This is the strangest war the US has ever fought. It began for no reason and seems to be ending in confusion & defeat. Trump’s trying to simply get back to the pre-war status quo and will pay Iran to get there. No agreement reached on the nuclear program will be better that the one Trump destroyed.
