I’ll keep saying this, many kids believe that racism is just the price of doing business. You know how many of these kids come from high schools named after confederate generals & coaches who tell them that they’re “one of the good ones”? It’s been their way of life for 18 years
Lawrence Ross: LakeShow, GGMU, Go Bears! '06!@alpha1906

We need a 'Don't Play Where You Have No Say' campaign to negatively recruit Black athletes away from states where Black political power has been erased. And there are gonna be a whole buncha racists who think that money is the guiding force. Well, we'll inform them. Money e'where

Y’all ever noticed that the wheels of government move mighty quick when it comes time to marginalize folks? You want funding for public services? Wait a couple years. Need to ban abortion, gerrymander districts, or dehumanize trans people? It’ll get done by tomorrow.

It sounds good but it would be a cold day in hell before black players at SEC schools actually use their power to fight against racism with the millions in NIL up for grabs. Historically, look at how elite black athletes left HBCUs in droves in the 70s for those PWIs.
HBCU Alum@hbcualum

Now is the time for Black collegiate athletes to truly understand their power and boycott these SEC schools in racist Southern states that disenfranchise their people. Its time to wake up! These folks want Jim Crow 2.0!

Spiritually New Afrikan: The Negro Subversive
This is how I avoid doomerism. It took a multi-century struggle against slavery then Jim Crow for us to even get to this point. We have odds facing us most of our ancestors would envy. None of this came without a fight, so fighting shouldn’t scare us.
Ken J. Makin@differencemakin

I’ll be brief. The ancestors persevered against steeper odds. We should consult with them more often (reading, remembering). Voting is a surface-level component. They saw the vote as a means to much more immediate freedoms. And they never said “we cooked” unless food was ready.

Remember... the South did not want to end segregation. Or, slavery. They did not want to give black people their constitutional right to vote. They were FORCED to. They're going to go back to the 1940s. They WILL segregate schools again. They've been trying to go back to this.

Bayou Manchac, downriver of Baton Rouge, on the border of Iberville Parish. In April 1718, New Orleans, at the time under construction at today's French Quarter site, almost got relocated here-- name and all. But the engineer carrying the recommendation from Paris died en route.

This is so funny man. Vance is the presidential candidate of AI accelerationism in 2028. But he knows that this is another issue that will be a liability for him, so now we’re going to get a cycle of stories that his team puts out there to build this narrative that he’s actually not the tech right’s lab grown pet. It’s the same media strategy he tried to use for the war in Iran.
Brian Schwartz@schwartzbWSJ

SCOOP: VP JD Vance held a secret call with CEOs of giant AI companies including Elon Musk, Dario Amodei and Sam Altman. Vance expressed concern with the potential of AI systems and impact they could have on local banks + other smaller businesses. It’s an instance of the administration scrambling to decide what to do with AI. Story w/ @AmrithRamkumar + @natalieandrews wsj.com/tech/ai/trump-…

The Voting Rights Act was built on an assumption by its authors (primarily Abe Fortas and Nicholas Katzenbach) that the South would only act in racist ways if allowed to and so had to be stopped from doing so at all times forever, and holy shit was that assumption dead on. -OS
