i think jesse jackson was one of the most important american political figures of the post-war era and i think that his 1984 and 1988 campaigns for the democratic nomination still have a great deal to teach about forging a path to a more egalitarian world. RIP.

Watch the video. This looks like a fucking execution by armed thugs - this is not what our country stands for. Local law enforcement needs to immediately investigate and hold those responsible accountable. There must be massive nationwide resistance to this lawlessness.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket. He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War. Notice the suppressors 1/2

I want us to stay focused on the grief of this terrible moment, but when Black people tell you not to touch something, that is not a challenge. Some things are ours for a reason. We can remember Renee Good as the person she was and the circumstances of her murder without co-opting Black suffering.

βSay her nameβ is not about allyship. Itβs a term crafted for people who are the focus of violence that deliberately erases us. Itβs not for her, and it wouldnβt be for her, even if she were Heather Heyer, who didnβt get it when she died for civil rights. Can you understand that?
