Why isn't this headline news? Per the UN, the Israeli military raided a building, grabbed civilians, dragged them outside, lined up fathers & sons, executed them, forced their families to watch, herded women & children into a room, & threw in a grenade. These are war crimes.

This is wild to think we’ve given police and schools this authority. We truly are in a dystopia right now… not soon, right here and now.

A police officer searched a classroom at a Massachusetts middle school for the novel “Gender Queer,” after receiving an anonymous complaint The ACLU says they cannot recall any instances of police going to a school to search for a book berkshireeagle.com/news/sout…

The police officer who searched for a book in a Great Barrington classroom also used a body camera....

The ACLU is looking further into why and how police thought it was their place to go looking for a book in a classroom.

This is such an accurate and good skit especially the part where he doesn’t say anything to correct them.

Congressional staffers say an onslaught of calls and emails asking for members to support a cease-fire has caught Dems completely off-guard. "I’ve never seen such a disconnect between where voters and constituents are and where Congress is" huffpost.com/entry/calls-for…

Democratic Staffers Told To Let Constant Calls For Cease-Fire ‘Go To Voicemail’

Congressional staff say the mood inside the Capitol is tense, stifling and bewildering as members brush off their constituents’ outrage.

We need to talk about how after years of Black people challenging police brutality in America… We end up with Black mayors across the country who unabashedly protect that system. That isn’t a coincidence. In this essay, I will—

“You can’t behold evil and then return and not speak on it.” Ta-Nehisi Coates speaks about how an experience in Palestine illuminated the connections between the African American and Palestinian liberation struggles, and the moral responsibility to speak out.

When it comes to resistance, the West has a clear double standard: It applauds Ukrainians, but condemns Palestinians.

Everyone should dispute their student loans with the three major credit reporting agencies 1) This will protect yourself and make sure everything is actually correct 2) This will bleed the servciers of $$. The servicers have to pay to process each dispute

OPINION: The #montgomerybrawl was more than an isolated incident. Whether consciously or unconsciously, those White men & women tried to enforce a centuries-long racial hierarchy through violence, but Black folks said hell no. History informs the present theblackwallsttimes.com/2023…

Why the Montgomery Riverboat brawl is a crucial moment in history

The Montgomery brawl reflects a crystal clear example of how the history and structure of systemic racism continues to impact this country.

Florida's Black history standards are even worse than reported

OPINION: While critics have singled out the part of Florida’s Black History standards referencing the “benefits of slavery," theGrio found numerous examples of Caucasian Race Theory embedded throug...

🚨 Today is #BlackWomensEqualPayDay, a reminder that Black women continue to face a wage gap of 67 cents compared to non-Hispanic white men for full-time, year-round work. It's time to close this gap and demand equal pay for equal work! #BlackWomenCantWait
