This is the BEST explanation I have seen so far.

#TimelessTuesday Quiet snow falls in our town

“Long before ‘CRT’ became the favored rhetorical weapon used to silence objective critiques […] Derrick Bell was telling a quieter, sharper story: progress arrives, recedes, and leaves a bill someone else must pay.” Read the full story at www.kolumnmagazine.com/2026/01/26/d...

@rosascevedo1.bsky.social very proud of you!

You can't just skip around, commenting without historical context or acknowledging the struggles in the world around you.

Comics retailing legend Greg Ketter standing up to ICE in Minneapolis. Yes, that's tear gas. He's 70 years old.

Wise words from WEB DuBois to gird us today: "It would be shame and cowardice to surrender this glorious land and its opportunities for civilization and humanity to the thugs and lynchers, the mobs and profiteers, the monopolists & gamblers who today choke its soul and steal its resources."

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

Bernice King: "The claim by Trump that the 1964 Civil Rights Act harmed white Americans is just wrong and dangerous. It rewrites history in a way that fuels fear and resentment. My father and so many others in the movement did not risk their lives to divide this nation. We are not going backwards."

MLK was only 39 when he was killed. Growing up, I thought that was old. But I’m 43 now and I’m stunned by the burden he shouldered at such a young age. I’m also a lot more aware of how hard it is, at any age, to carry the hopes and dreams of an oppressed people on your shoulders, as so many do.

When the racist meme becomes national policy

Megyn is justifying murder at the hands of the state, and you’re saying she’s the more productive person to talk to? Come on 🙄

I bet he’ll still write an Atlantic article blaming the “woke left” for what happened.

some identify publicly with the left because they hate oppression, others because they hate being oppressed. things will make more sense when you keep in mind that these are not the same - or even similar

Some got mad and blocked me because I said Jake Paul wasn’t a real professional boxer 🤣

Maybe the guy who thinks he can better serve “Western Civilization” by leaving his Harvard post and moving to a state that bans teaching about black people is an unreliable narrator on alleged anti-white discrimination in higher ed. Also, Compact is a fascist outlet.

"The service stairs of Teréz körút 9, in the 6th district of Budapest. This historical apartment house, built in 1887, was designed by Sebestyén Messner and Rezső Arndt for Emil Lyka." 🙏🏼🌍🕊️ 📷 Building Tell Tales©️

For years now, moderates have decried the division of identity politics of Democrats, ignoring of course that the Republican Party was defined by identity politics itself — the identity of whiteness. Now that it’s explicit the inability to call it out and to cover it aptly is starkly disappointing.

The “war” for control in the GOP is between people who want to replace the elephant with the swastika and those who want a confederate flag.

“Economic Anxiety”.

When the slightest bit of research shows he was consistently racist and a daddy issues Confederate fanboy. People try to paint BIRTH OF A NATION as a masterpiece with some unfortunate racism. The whole movie is racist, the “masterpiece “ thing was backfilled to excuse it.

Conservatives: The constitution is colorblind, discrimination does not justify reverse discrimination Also conservatives: white men deserve reparations for not having 100 percent of the jobs they apply for

That Compact essay is very easily picked a part with actual data/evidence, but what has become clear is there is very little will to do so as its dubious claims confirm a deeply held grievance amongst an apparently large % of our white colleagues that they are the victims of rampant discrimination.

in conservatism, an ideology built around personal responsibility, it's always someone else's fault. bsky.app/profile/donm...

Well worth the read. Thanks for sharing!

An entire cohort absolutely ruined by the realization they would never be better writers than TNC and resolved never to let it happen again

I wrote this with so much love. Through his biography, his own words & the music of those who remember him, I invite us once again to think critically about what decolonisation means through the life of a man who lived and died for it. Long live Amílcar Cabral. folukeafrica.com/amilcar-cabr...

Frantz Fanon died on December 6, 1961, at the age of 36.

Facts! This is why it’s foolish to even debate what the text clearly states. The framers behind Reconstruction era policy-making were trying to rectify the Dred Scott ruling.

It might be easy to find things like this merely petty or superficial, but that would be a mistake. Demeaning, erasing or eliminating celebrations or acknowledgments of Black America is straight from Redemption playbook, and is intended to reinforce the racial hierarchy and signal its reinstatement.

Phillis Wheatley, first published African-American female poet, died #OTD in 1784. Born in W. Africa, sold into slavery at 7 & one of the best-known poets in 18th-century America. Her achievements were a catalyst for the fledgling antislavery movement. poetryfoundation.org/poets/philli...#OTD#poetry

What does it say about this country that that the kind of open, rank bigotry Trump administration officials regularly express towards black immigrants apparently has no social cost because of the number of Americans who quietly agree or don't care.

Have a great afternoon and a pleasant evening good night
