We made an audio documentary about hip-hop! Hear the story of how hip-hop came to be from the legends themselves, including Rakim, YoYo, The Lady of Rage and others. Honored that my friend Sean Carter allowed me and @ReenaJF to help him tell his story.

The radioactive fertilizer waste found in stacks in central Florida? Florida wants to see if it can use it in roads—@RonDeSantis signed a bill yesterday to allow a study, even though @EPA deems use unsafe & currently prohibits it. My story @MiamiHerald:

The fertilizer industry, namely the Fortune 500 company The Mosaic Co. that dominates Florida phosphate mining, has long advocated exploring potential uses for the waste.

NEW: in a major surprise, Supreme Court rules 5-4 that Alabama's congressional map dilutes Black voting strength. This could reverberate to LA, SC and/or GA, forcing creation of 2-4 new Black majority districts and netting Dems 2-4 seats. Key passages: https://t.co/oTMOBFEDMK

Ginwoo Onodera may only be 13 and weigh 84 pounds, but don't let his age or size fool you. The Japanese rider threw down the hardest run of the men’s SKB Street comp on his way to gold during his rookie appearance. He's now the second youngest men’s gold medalist in XG history.

In a warming world with an accelerated fire-flood cycle, the race is on for scientists to predict flood and debris flow dangers — and the intense rainfall that triggers them — before they happen. Latest in @sfchronicle with a village of fantastic journos! https://t.co/Mmw8XaDGfe

This morning, @CoStateAuditor released a report on @ColoradoDOT's procurement practices (see below) (it's not great). Two years ago, @chrisosher and reported many of the same findings, after months of prying records and data out of the agency. https://t.co/LfLBAG7WPW
