Next year’s ceremony will be the same month as the 30th anniversary of the wrongful arrest and subsequent incarceration of five innocent black boys. It is unconscionable that Linda Fairstein be onstage representing our organization. It is unacceptable. #centralparkfive

Multimillionaire Jeffrey Epstein was accused of sexually assaulting dozens of teen girls. Their stories were dismissed by prosecutors, who cut Epstein a lenient deal. His victims have never had a voice, until now.

I don’t discount the possibility of foul play in some of these, but deaths of well-known Ferguson activists every few months underscores two realities: the protests were led by poor black and brown people. In America, poor black and brown people die young thecut.com/2018/11/anothe…

The U.S. is reportedly brokering a deal with Mexico to address the migrant caravan. The arrangement could make asylum next to impossible. My latest: theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

Ivanka Trump and Tim Cook visited an Idaho elementary school and allowed just two outlets to attend under strict conditions. The Idaho Statesman correctly framed its story about their visit around the restrictions.

There have been just under 2,000 United States Senators in American history.
Just 10 of them - 10! - have been black.
Only 52 - 52! - have been women.

And, so, a country that poisoned a critic in the UK with a nerve agent will meet with a country which dismembered a critic in Turkey. twitter.com/jimsciutto/sta…

Black folks aren't built that way. Our inherent decency is how this nation has been able to continue in spite of what was done to us and Native Americans and Jewish people and...and...and...
We don't fight & oppress & kill for fictional supremacy.
We just strive for equality. twitter.com/barefeethusky/…

In 1806, MP Humphrey Howarth arrived at a duel naked. He knew that bullets push dirty pieces of clothing into wounds, causing slow, nasty deaths. Howarth's opponent decided there was something distasteful about shooting a nude parliamentarian, and declared the matter resolved. pic.twitter.com/QsJhkh2fkS

GM just announced that they are closing four U.S. plants and cutting 14,000 hourly & salaried positions. GM shares jumped more than 4 percent from the news.
When you read about the stock market, remember that what’s good for shareholders isn’t always good for ordinary Americans.

This high school is the only one in its mostly POC neighborhood. The library has no budget for books, so we need to help out! twitter.com/smaystein/stat…

You are such an inspiration to my 15 YO musical theater geek daughter and her friends. You've cost me a fortune in cookies, chips and soda for viewing parties.

How much does Civil War and slavery still haunt Mississippi? In 1860, Mississippi was 5th wealthiest state. Since 1866, it’s been the poorest.

I wrote about how Ryan Coogler’s Creed forever altered the Rocky movies—a franchise that until now was largely about giving audiences the opportunity to see white men kick Muhammad Ali’s ass over and over again theatlantic.com/entertainment/…

I just got suspended from school for having a hickey on my neck. High schools think it's okay for students to salute to Hitler but apparently tiny marks on our body is what should be condemned. Public school systems, please focus more on disciplining students who practice hate.
