OPINION: "In a time when many historic Black districts face erasure or disinvestment, Burglund offers a different path: revitalization led from within. Through gardens, galleries, churches, schools, and long-standing businesses, the district continues to rise," Kevin Enos Brown writes.

Since the group began protesting in early March, it has tripled in size. And protesters say they have no plans to stop showing up.

If you ask guys who never played in the NBA, who are the best shooters of all time, they give you a list of men, including Steph Curry. But if you ask Steph Curry himself, he includes Azzi Fudd. She's projected to be the #1 WNBA draft pick in 2026, just in time to see WNBA salaries jump to $500K+.

Journalist Maria Hinojosa spoke with labor rights icon Dolores Huerta after she revealed that Cesar Chavez raped her decades ago. “To hear her in this kind of state of being broken was very, very difficult. She's not that kind of person. She's not weak," said Hinojosa.

I want fully staffed public pools, and libraries that are cathedrals to public goods and a society where walling yourself off with money is viewed as sociopathic.

The attack on a teaching hospital in Al Deain, the capital of East Darfur state, has rendered the facility non-functiona

C'mon propublica, not you too. I just… don't fucken do this, man… Not the people who literally broke the story about how "AI" systems disproportionately harm the already marginalized, reinscribing prejudice into supposedly objective process w/ life & death results. All that shit's still there, y'all

Police violently grab Black woman by her neck—flip her over backwards headfirst onto pavement. She was standing with her hands behind her back—not resisting being handcuffed. All while at least 4 police officers surround the woman—pointing guns directly at her. Columbus, Ohio.

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, younger generations aren’t ruining industries, they simply can’t afford to participate in them. Billionaires have their own planes and their own vacation homes. The travel industry relies on regular people having free time and money to spend vacationing.

the last time *just gas* got this out of control, i had to do napkin math to see at what price i had to drop out of college because i couldn’t afford the commute. if it had gotten a dime higher, that was it. no degree for emily. these people have never met a normal person.

The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case that could determine the future of a beach with cultural and ecological importance to the Indigenous CHamoru people of Guam, where the U.S. Air Force wants to continue the open detonation of obsolete munitions.

Ramadan ends tonight & I’m getting the usual questions, so lemme clear things up. If anyone says “Eid Mubarak,” to you, here are perfectly good replies: •Eid Kareem! •Khair Mubarak! •Eid Mubarak to you! •I will buy you tacos for Eid!❤️ (OK last one may be apocryphal but I stand by it😅) EID MUBARAK!

Eid Mubarak to all. End the Wars Free Palestine.

Eid Mubarak, New York.

It’s amazing how quickly Black women have been targeted by these laws and doubly so how little this factors into the analysis around the sexual and gender politics of this movement.

Huh! Apparently it's Sister Rosetta's birthday today!

That line drives me absolutely BONKERS. It’s up there with the canard that “racism isn’t profitable!” Money is a consolation prize for not having total power. It is actually very rational to pursue that power at the expense of profit.

EID MUBARAK TO MY MUSLIM BADDIES!!!!!!

We don’t have universal healthcare for the same reason that white southerners poured cement into their community swimming pools rather than let their black neighbors swim in them. Racism is ruining ALL of our lives.

Law enforcement officers in Washington state can no longer cover their faces to conceal their identities. The law, signed Thursday by Gov. Bob Ferguson, seeks to unmask federal immigration agents. washingtonstatestandard.com/2026/03/19/f...

Reyna is one of my heroes and mentors. 🥺😭 She lays out so clearly the path toward justice. ✊🏾 Our movements deserve healing, space to grieve, and a new resolve to advance the principles that are the foundation for workers rights and gender justice. 🫶🏾

“By the end of the week, 100 cities could set all-time temperature records for the month of March, with temperatures climbing as high as 30F (17C) above average for the time of year.”

🧵My heart has been so sore with the revelations about Chavez, especially re: Dolores Huerta—60 yrs silent bc "I believed that exposing the truth would hurt the farmworker movement I have spent my entire life fighting for." How many women have sacrificed themselves & been sacrificed for The Mission?

One of our new initiatives at The Rumpus is a Spanish language section, El Alboroto, where we publish original Spanish prose and poetry. If you write in Spanish or know people who do, please send them here to read our guidelines and submit their work. therumpus.submittable.com/submit/35215...

I will leave you for the evening with this thought: Nazis bad

Oh the "legacy protectors" attacking Dolores Huerta are proving exactly why she stayed silent for 60 years. If your first instinct is to smear Dolores Huerta to save a statue’s reputation, you're just a predator protector.

Outrageous. Stripping Liam Conejo Ramos and his family of asylum is beyond cruel and indefensible. This decision must be overturned. Shame.

Those tricky Jews!

Across the political spectrum, regardless of ideology, there's no kind of Jew who's the right kind of Jew to not be targeted & killed by antisemites (And! Those Christian Nationalist Zionists that some Jews have used & been used by, each side for their own ends? Think we're going to hell.)

Also yup, with the understanding that fracturing Trump's base and hastening his downfall in this very specific way would likely also be blamed (by people who have a propensity for violence) on The Jews™.

Yup.

But wait! Bibi twisted your arm too?

Is Trump a smol bean? Is that what you're saying?
