This exhaustively reported investigative narrative, by @AnatRubin1, about a repulsive swamp of injustice in Louisiana is one of the most remarkable and infuriating pieces of journalism I’ve ever read. Read it.
For more than a decade, the all-white judges of a Louisiana appellate court ignored thousands of petitions filed by prisoners, most of them Black, who claimed they had been wrongly convicted. Efforts to expose the injustice went unheard. (THREAD) https://t.co/W8bQJj5eLQ

White supremacist speaker @CSexton25 violently shoved me today while I held my “Protect Kids, Not Guns!” sign. I’m infuriated by his actions but more infuriated by the INACTION of @tnhousegop to pass a SINGLE bill to prevent gun violence. This is how democracy dies. We must rise!
Our photographer Devin Crawford had a bird's eye view of the "shove" that happened on the House floor as House Speaker @CSexton25 was trying to leave the chamber. The aforementioned incident was between Sexton and Rep. @Justinjpearson. #TNLeg #tnleg23

According to NORD: 591 kids who have not been paid who were to be paid after Labor Day. The city said it’s because of bad information on file given to them.

Bryan Cranston breaks down MAGA and racism in 60 seconds. My African American wife served this country for 21 years, and she said “I feel seen” hearing that video clip. ❤️

I don’t often retweet serious stuff, but this makes me a little crazy. “It’s history”? It hurts living in a city that is so accepting of so many people. I’m shocked….Isn’t it 2022? wtf! (as a local artist, that is NOT a handmade piece, it’s mass produced garbage)
I walked into a New Orleans gift shop to find a section featuring Hitler figurines. Later I called them to talk about antisemitism and racism. It did not go well.

my heart is so heavy
Five white students spelled out the n-word on their shirts at a GA high school football game. These students should face MAJOR consequences for their actions! Our children should be able to enjoy a football game without the presence of racism! When will this disturbing hate end?!
