A comeback no one saw coming. After stepping away from the American Ballet Theatre and undergoing a major hip surgery, Misty Copeland left many wondering when she would dance again. Tonight she stunned audiences with a surprise return to the stage during the Sinners performance at the Oscars. #Oscars #MistyCopeland #Sinners

She literally explained why you feel tired all day and how to fix it:

MEMPHIS: “There are about 50 schools that need to close” As state Republicans take over Shelby County schools, @SenBrentTaylor says they plan to shutter many While underfunding them, sending millions of taxpayer💰to vouchers/privately run charter schools (H/T @NoApologies901)

Oh my God FINALLY an excuse to post one of the most INSANE Mikhail Baryshnikov performances from Don Quixote… Baryshnikov never relied on a body double OR a butt double either, Sir Chalamet… ballet is not 4 the weak!! ☕️🩰

It’s Women’s History Month. Rather than post factoids I’m just gonna post a picture and a name and y’all can google why they’re important. Knowledge for you without a lot of free labor from me. Win win. Today’s prompt is Maria Tallchief (because some of us like ballet)

Happy Birthday to Janet Collins, she was among the pioneers of black ballet dancing, one of the few classically trained Black dancers of her generation. When she performed in Aida, Carmen, she would be the first Black ballerina to perform at the Metropolitan Opera. 🩰

Often overlooked in America’s history of World War II are the 27 Tuskegee Airmen who disappeared in combat. Geoff Bennett sat down with Cheryl W. Thompson, whose father was also an airman. She chronicles the lives of the missing men and the racism they endured while serving their country in her book, “Forgotten Souls: The Search for the Lost Tuskegee Airmen.” to.pbs.org/3Ohp739

Voter suppression is not just a political issue. It is a moral issue. When access to the ballot is restricted, voices are silenced and communities are pushed to the margins. My father, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., understood that the right to vote is foundational to justice, dignity, and equal protection under the law. If we are serious about creating the Beloved Community, we must confront efforts that dilute, obstruct, or deny that right. Democracy requires participation, protection, and vigilance from all of us.

.@GeoffRBennett: There is plenty of data to show that industries in your state, such as farming and manufacturing, have faced major headwinds as a result of President Trump's economic and trade policies. Yet, voters there are still largely supportive of him. What explains the disconnect? @AndyBeshearKY: "They're waking up. They are waking up because we are succeeding in spite of Donald Trump and not because of him."

To our LGBTQ+ community: We love you for being you. We're here for you, we see you, and we support you.

🔥 @VoteBo: “I just get so sick of over and over the hate… I chose to run for office to help people. I didn’t come here to say who can I poke in the eye today.” Mitchell lights up Bully @GinoBulso for the Pride flag ban, one of his many hateful anti-🏳️‍🌈 bills. H/T @TNDemocrats

“I’m absolutely stunned.” After the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on suspicion of misconduct in public office, I spoke to Emily @maitlis, whose 2019 interview with the then-prince sent shockwaves internationally. He has previously denied all wrongdoing regarding Epstein.

Yassssssss. That’s her 🤣🤣🤣
