My Black History Moment: My uncle, Oscar Grant Johnson, Jr. — the “Jackie Robinson of tennis.”

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

This. Right here. #DefundDHS #ICEout

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

A friend of mine had a theory: Russia, China and the United States have already secretly planned to carve up the world. Russia gets Ukraine. China gets Taiwan. The United States gets Greenland. NATO gets dissolved. Europe gets nothing. New World Order. Thought?

The Inuit People have several words for ICE. I only have one: Evil #ICEOUT

There’s no order in oppression. There is no law in chaos. What we are witnessing is the very monster we once feared outside our window. Now we are looking in the mirror.

He could’ve easily been talking about his own life and work. I grieve for his family.

Be the GOOD that ICE is not. #Minneapolis

I no longer want to live in the Upside Down.

Truly Presidential. #MLK

when life shuts a door, open it. it’s a door… that’s how they work.

@inkradio.bsky.social This has been my dream album for years. Made in anticipation.

The family of #ReneeNicoleGood should sue the government for slander and defamation.

The Minnesota Timberwolves should all wear jerseys with Good and the number 37 for the rest of the season. #37Good

Musk didn’t invent Tesla. Musk didn’t invent SpaceX. Musk didn’t invent StarLink. Musk didn’t invent X. But Musk is the wealthiest person ever. Stop calling this guy a genius. And start calling him an egomaniac.

That’s why we used to make mixed tapes for the people we liked in high school.

We call things ‘complex’ when the truth would require us to change. History isn’t made by loud moments. It’s made by the days people decide not to look away.

Me too!

blue itself teaches us blue — Quoted in Frank Herbert’s “The Jesus Incident”

The Olivia Nuzzi story and the Bari Weiss at CBS story are the same story, which is that the upper echelons of legacy media are absolutely rife with people who worship power and don't feel burdened by any sense of responsibility to their profession or the public.

One of my first haiku.

#Lockdown at my school today just after the last bell. Off-campus shooting, but very close so we locked down. Sat alone in the my room in the dark thinking about how far we’ve fallen. And how much something like this has become the norm.

A “Presidential” social media post. Wish is was official.

We all deserve the same healthcare we provide to Congress…

Gave my Government student a survey task based on the article, “Must the president be a moral leader?” by Michael Blake. I gave them the article to read and asked them to use their phones to engage in the survey activity on #Mentimeter. I am actually shocked by how engaged they actually are.

This is also true at the high school level. It’s a crisis that seems to be escalating.

An essential read. As an educator, it’s hard to know things like this and also try to teach about it authentically and with an eye towards critical analysis.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Thank you.

Empires don’t fall when they run out of money. They fall when they run out of mercy.

We now live in the kind of nation that we used to teach kids in school to be fearful of. I am having a hard time teaching kids today otherwise. And some of them are asking questions I can’t answer objectively. The struggle is real. #TeachingGovernment #Civics #Education #EduSky

Maybe #Cuomo can run for President of his HOA at his new gated residential community in Florida.
