To the half of America ignoring stories like this:
You won’t be able to look away forever.
Not when a masked man shows up at your own door.
That’s when you’ll wish you’d done something before the Bill of Rights was torched.
ICE detain U.S. citizen woman driving to work—dressed in full medical scrubs.
"I’m a U.S. citizen, please help me!" she cries. "Why are you doing this to me?"
Woman was dragged out of car, tackled to ground & handcuffed.
Agents finally checked driver's license to prove her citizenship—and did eventually release her.
DHS issued a statement claiming that she had initially refused to roll down her car window "all the way."
The incident occurred near Rowell’s Waterfront Park in Key Largo, Florida. #DemsUnited

My father once told me the secret to a happy marriage.
“Stay out of the kitchen. Let her handle the holidays.”
I was 19. He was in his recliner.
My mother was cooking for 14 people.
She’d been up since 5 AM.
He’d been up since the football pregame.
I didn’t think anything of it.
That’s just how it was.
Fast forward 20 years.
I’m in the recliner.
My wife is in the kitchen.
She’s been up since 5 AM.
I’ve been up since the pregame.
My daughter walks by and I see her watching.
Not the TV.
Her mother.
Then me.
Then her mother again.
That’s when it hit me:
She’s taking notes.
My father taught me that holidays were for men to rest and women to work.
He didn’t say it.
He showed it.
Every Thanksgiving.
Every Christmas.
Every Easter.
The recliner passed from him to me like an inheritance I never asked for.
This morning I woke up at 4 AM.
Not for content.
For the turkey.
My wife found me in the kitchen at 6.
She didn’t say anything.
She just stood there.
Then she cried.
Your kids are taking notes.
Not on what you say.
On where you sit.
The recliner is an inheritance.
Be the generation that stands up.
On Sunday at 5pm we will be holding space to honor the life of Tirhas and demand action. We will remember her for the beautiful soul that she was.

Did you know the Norwegian navy puts barcodes on the side of their boats so when they get back to port they can Scandinavian.

The Oct. 15th general strike call at best will amount to nothing & will make it harder to organize people in the future.
At worst, a lot of people are gonna get fired with no community support system, & it will make it almost impossible to organize people for at least a decade.
I have to pay $89 dollars to get my birth certificate shipped. WHICH I CANT DO BECAUSE MY BANK IS LOVKED
Epic Antique needs to own up to their wrong. They are perpetuating white supremacy, this was ignorant and careless. They need to do research and figure out who this was stolen from and pay reparations.
Black women are a gift. No matter my gender identity I will always be a BLACK WOMAN.
Lets do whatever the hell we want. Be whoever the hell we want. Dress however the hell we want. Black women are the back bone of everything.
Does anyone know where to buy rollerskate toe stops?
I don't want to have to order online if I don't have to and mine broke while skating last night rip
Y’all know how if you pay for the bus with cash they give you alittle ticket?
If you don’t need that ticket and it still has time on it give it to a stranger. Or a houseless neighbor! The bus has air conditioning!!
