HER OWN WINDOW repotted and free in her own space, she sees the sun break through the pane, feels its warmth lengthen her spine beyond his cold shadow . . . her whole world expands: arms out, cheeks pink, sweet, sweet smile her first bloom #nonet #9linepoem (free) #poetry

Lets share this image of the murdered parents with their infant and toddler, rather than the pathetic one with Melania and the thumbs-up smirky asshole. I’m tired of seeing that awful picture.

Lady confronted me at the gym, calling me an asshole & saying “All lives matter 🤦🏼‍♂️..(& that I’ll) be lucky to walk out of here wearing that shirt.” I told her I wear it for people like her, & that she can “take (her) racism somewhere else.” Led to a stellar workout. #BLM

This family IS AMERICA!!! I love them! This is what I want America to look like: love, family, courage, different cultures. I have a strong suspicion that many, many people dont think of America in the same way that I do. 💔

Block/ignore #maga . They don’t care and won’t understand. They are essentially the same people who are in this photo. They won’t see that we are a country founded on white supremacy and fraught with a racism that has pervaded from generation to generation, only to be abated.. 1/2

Just to clarify for those making the observation that the infants don’t look alike. The article states that these two children in the picture are the older siblings of the infant from the hospital photo op. They had three kids in total.

The absolute best acts of kindness are conducted quietly without expectations or self-promotion; whereby no praise or reciprocation is required or desired. It is the joy of altruism. If you can find that space, occupy it. You’ll never be disappointed there.

A gas company employee had to walk around my yard today while I was at work. He called me first to let me know he was a Black man, in case my neighbors misconstrued his intentions. 2021. This is his reality. Our country sucks in many ways. 😢😡

@RashidaTlaib @JoyAnnReid The prone hold is incredibly high risk. It has been outlawed for use in adolescent residential facilities in almost every state. The potential for asphyxiation is high. Weight should never, ever be placed on their back in this position. Why do cops not know this?

@mmpadellan I don’t think there’s much of a chance 2/3s of The Senate would convict, but I’d impeach regardless. Then we need to pulverize him and the cowardly GOP at the polls. And in the end he needs to be imprisoned and penniless.
