Angela Rye doesn’t work or fight for Black people. She works with and for the Democratic Party. The way Jill Stein addressed her was accurate and appropriate. I support her pushback 100%. Rye is a tool. As a tool of the Party she deserves neither deference nor respect.

Notice the framing here is that Harris has to earn the Latino vote and there is no condemnation for not falling in line. But when #ADOS says our vote must be earned we are demonized. Never the same energy.

I cannot for the life of me understand why someone who vehemently opposes Reparations is chosen to be a part of a task force whose task is to come up with Reparations proposals. This has got to be a joke.

Interesting how funding reparations work for Black people can't be specific but the Indigenous funds can get as specific and exclusionary as they like.

Reparations make increasingly less sense as America grows more diverse, think tank report argues

An increasingly diverse country poses a problem for proponents of reparations for slavery as many ancestors of Americans arrived after abolition, one expert argues.

Claudine Gay’s story never should’ve been confused with the #ADOS story. This never should’ve bubbled to the level of a “Black” vs White controversy. How are ADOS—as a group—burdened with Gay’s failure when we were never blessed with her success?

The reason @charliekirk11 is unraveling is because of how truly American Juneteenth is: It’s a holiday anchored in freedom & liberation. It highlights just how quintessentially American #ADOS are. For people committed to marginalizing us, this is a problem.
