Thankful for this pod that introduced me to @jreedmo.bsky.social I am typically not speechless. But Julie leaves me speechless as she talks about the story of her people, which is also her story. I do not often buy a book before I hear the author speak on @herberthistory.bsky.social’s pod, but

Something about this movie makes my soul ache. #HATM #TrainDreams

My friend @kythera.bsky.social has been applying for jobs as a technical writer for over a year. She's queer, disabled, and neurodivergent - all of which, in America, may be working against her. Please help keep her afloat so she doesn't lose her home or her cats: shorturl.at/OpOL6

Yes, a worship service is sacred. So is the image of God in your immigrant neighbor. So is the image of God being dragged from his home in his underwear on a snowy day. So was the image of God that bled out for 8 minutes while being refused medical care.

Over the past decade, US immigration agents have shot and killed more than two dozen people. Not a single agent appears to have faced criminal charges. Our reporter spent four years investigating ICE shootings that occurred from 2015 to 2021. Some patterns emerged.

These 10 companies stand to rake in $1 billion by 2027 by helping ICE track down and round up immigrants. Cashing in on cruelty.

It has never been more important in most of our lifetimes than now to make art that deeply offends and concerns fascists.

No hate, the gofundme for Renee Good has already reached $50k today. Black women rarely ever receive that level of visibility and aid. THAT'S why we have "Say Her Name" for us, in the FIRST PLACE. WE get ignored WE get erased WE are the ones who are overlooked when resources get allocated

This is my favorite Reckoning pod of the last 6 months: open.spotify.com/episode/5Gt9... As much as I loved the #NottingHill pod & discussion, this one takes the cake. #Reckoning continues to make one think, laugh hard, ponder, and walk around the world in general delight.

New research found that Instacart is charging shoppers different prices — despite ordering the same items from the same store at the same time. The price differences could amount to an extra $1,200 a year for the average household of four. Corporate greed is out of control.
