I'm literally in tears. It is not a pleasure to watch; but it is an honour.

If I can share this...

A good thread on the awful art of non-apologies & why they fail. My FIL has "apologized many times" to me (his words). No, not once, actually. An vague apology centering the transgressor's feelings/needs, offering scores of excuses, & making no commitment/plan to STOP THE BEHAVIOUR is no apology.

Happy Black History Month 🖤✨ Libraries and books are from perfect. The Dewey Decimal System is imperfect. But we will never forget the work of Dorothy B. Porter. She decolonized the Dewey Decimal System. She helped us belong in libraries, in books. We celebrate and thank you, Dorothy B. Porter 💜📚

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.” The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.
