The irony of the 1970 RICO law signed by an impeached president to be used in Georgia on another impeached president. 😂

Plastic's Health Impacts Are Becoming Impossible To Ignore | Opinion ⁦⁦@EcolectivosGT⁩ newsweek.com/plastics-healt…

With many of the women at the top behaving the worst. That is what I find so disappointing.

The export of plastic, old clothes and 🗑️ to the global south is CARBON COLONIALISM— rich nations get credit for reducing their carbon, when in truth they “dumped” it in 🌎 that can’t manage the load of waste @EcolectivosGT @PlasticBank #PlasticFreeJuly atmos.earth/where-global-n…

¿Sabías que? El reciclaje ayuda a conservar la energía y por lo tanto, son emitidos menos gases de efecto invernadero ♻️☢️ #Reciclaje #ECOLECTIVOS #EcolectivosGT #ContraLaContaminaciónPorPlásticos #Guatemala

@TalbertSwan Truth. Definitely not selected for his sharp mind, his silver tongue, or his ethical conduct.

This two bit, self loathing, sycophantic, white supremacy apologizing, uncle ruckus, benefited from race-based preferences throughout his entire career, yet sided with conservatives to overturn affirmative action. Clarence Thomas was admitted to Holy Cross in 1968 in part because the school was actively looking for Black students. He was admitted to Harvard Law School in 1971 right after it adopted a “race conscious“ admissions policy, but chose to go to Yale at the exact moment it created its first explicit affirmative action program with a goal of 10% minority enrollment. Thomas was one of 12 Black students in the class of 175. His application was evaluated separately and he received special consideration because he was Black. When Thomas left Yale he was hired by John Danforth, the Attorney General of Missouri. Danforth admitted it was because he was seeking to have a diverse office and that Clarence Thomas was hired because he was Black. Thomas left Danforth’s office to work for Monsanto at a time when the company was looking to hire Black lawyers. He went back to work for Danforth when he was a US senator and was looking to diversify his staff. He then went to work for Reagan’s Department of Education and was offered the job in part because he was Black. He then became chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, a position that six Black women turned down before he accepted it. His entire career was a result of affirmative action. This man epitomizes hypocrisy and has always been an enemy to Black progress in this nation. #SCOTUS #AffirmativeAction

@bethsawin That slowing down is not allowed.

Got a book today from a former student of mine. The 1972 view of plastic = miracle stuff. The 2023 view of plastic = the 🌍 is suffocating. #plastic ⁦@EndPlasticsNow⁩ ⁦@BeyondPlastAct⁩ ⁦@EcolectivosGT⁩

So thrilled to work with 30 nurse researchers who are incorporating environmental health and climate change into their research and education. What a rich experience!

Please sign this petition. The council voted 11-4 in favor of cop city funding despite hours/days/months of organized opposition. This reminds me that Atlanta was one of the founding cities of the KKK and in the end these racist policies will persist—we must resist.
