2/… it (slavery) has been a part of the fabric of our nation since the beginning. The Founders were not Gods. They were wealthy, white landowners who wanted to ensure the continuation of their own prosperity and perceived nobility. Slavery was how they did it. #BLM #AlwaysRemember

#HistoryMatters This is #publichistory done correctly. As a historian, I am pleased to see this. The Enslaved’s story is one that we cannot afford to forget nor accept the erasure of that stain in our history. Many think slavery was only a part of society during the Civil War era, but…

Just an observation here, but I couldn't help but notice that, even though we've all seen that orange shitstain sundowning for a long-ass time, the speed of his decline really picked up after Camille Zapata began her campaign of absolute deadass bangers.

Revoking an entire nationality’s visas is collective punishment and never acceptable — especially in this moment when millions of Palestinians lack equal rights, basic healthcare, and so much more at home, forcing them out of the US is unfathomably cruel. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/w...

Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:

The entire fascist plot relies on us being terrified and sad. This is why they’re constantly trying to scare everyone with theatrics. They want you to see him as unstoppable and not as a 79-year-old with severe health problems who will die soon.

Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."

If people wanted you to write well about them, they should have behaved accordingly. That was something one of my creative writing professors said that really helped me to get past some of my shame. The single only piece I have published was a personal essay about some of my trauma. It’s helped.

The face of Smallpox. This poor child died a couple days after this photo was taken. Vaccine Science rendered Smallpox extinct in the “wild”, but it still exists in Biohazard Labs. What if it gets accidentally or purposely released? Today’s kids are NOT immune! Young adults are NOT immune!
