Over ten years ago I created a mix that combines Douglass' What to the Slave is the Fourth of July with Marvin Gaye's performance of the Star Spangled Banner. Gets at the complicated nature of this day better than anything I've written.

We aren't sure we're going to have an election. The likelihood 2026 won't be tampered with is slim, in the absence of action. The candidate who expresses the most willingness to fight fascism will win black voters.
Here’s the full list from the Yale poll. Still not much there to write home about. And, as I’ve said before, if Harris doesn’t run she’ll have a LARGE say in who gets the support of Black voters in the SC primary…it’s going to be an interesting few years.

Yep. To the extent it helped his family it was a good look.
@LesterSpence Yeah, that’s what I meant by context. I have no ill will towards Monty, it was a tough spot, he should have never taken the job. I wish him well.

The conservatives created Project 2025 and then installed it in the Republican wrapper they'd already taken over. Why would you expect the Democratic Party to create the response?.
I find it so telling that Dems don’t have a Project 2025 of their own. What is the liberal thesis for why govt isn’t working? How would they fix things like education, homelessness, or crime? How would they go beyond the mantra of protecting institutions and actually improve.
