As more than 1,400 Kellogg workers begin their strike for better working conditions and benefits, we have to do our best to support them. So until Kellogg workers get a fair contract, I will not be buying these products. Will you join me?

The reason we value free speech is because we recognize the power words have. So it’s fascinating seeing folks misunderstand both that our free speech laws prevent government (not private entities) from suppressing speech and that speech can be used to incite very real violence.

Some people ask: Why would you impeach and convict a president who has only a few days left in office? The answer: Precedent. It must be made clear that no president, now or in the future, can lead an insurrection against the U.S. government.

The people who got us here don’t get to decide how or when to heal and move on. Just stop talking.

I survived a murderous newsroom shooting in 2018, losing five of my Capital Gazette family. their families destroyed. My head was nearly shot off, multiple slugs missing by a fraction of an inch. This stuff makes me sick. We're your neighbors, family and friends doing our best.

Let’s keep doing what's working: 216 studies collectively confirm that masks and distancing bring down transmission rates and the risk of infection. So follow Dr. Ezike’s three W’s: wear your mask, watch your distance, and wash your hands.

This #Juneteenth, we celebrate the Coloured Hockey League. Founded in Nova Scotia in 1895, the league was formed by the sons and grandsons of escaped slaves, whose innovations helped create hockey as we know it today.

So I was talking with my mom about #DefundThePolice. And she asked me a question: how could what happened to Rayshard Brooks happen, at this moment, in this uprising? How could police keep...doing this? So this is what I said.

Stop saying you’re colorblind or you “don’t see color.” If the only way you can acknowledge someone’s humanity is to pretend their culture and history doesn’t exist, you need to examine yourself. Plus, I love being black. This shit’s dope AF when the cops aren’t around.

Does anyone know of any engineering and/or product managers who are willing to mentor black and brown folks? Feel free to comment! There is plenty of black and brown talent looking for mentors in technical roles too. It's the perfect time to help out! 👇

Donald Trump really just had the police fire tear gas and rubber bullets at peaceful protestors in Washington D.C. to clear the streets for a photo op at a church he doesn't attend with a book he's never read that teaches lessons he doesn't preach. Unbelievable.

Thousands peacefully kneeling in DC remembering George Floyd chanting, “Stop Killing Black People.” Why isn’t this video viral? Why is the media only interested in talking about isolated acts of vandalism & theft? We’re here & We ain’t leaving.

Right now we need your help in demanding @chicagosmayor lower the bridges and open the subway entrances downtown so people can get home. We are very concerned that the curfew will be used as license to let CPD run wild while people will literally be trapped.
