Jewish people are not responsible for the continuation of 2000 years of antisemitic hatred. Antisemites are responsible.

The August jobs report couldn’t be much better. Job growth is solid but slowing. Unemployment rose, but for that right reason - more labor supply as participation jumped. Wage growth continues to moderate and hours worked rose. The report has soft landing written all over it.

The @NobelPeaceOslo open the conference with a stark reminder: “The number of democracies is in decline. Only 30% of people live in democracies. Human rights and those who defend them are increasingly at risk. That’s why this #nobelpeaceconference is about #humanrightsheroes

Remember when we PASSED A NEW EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT IN NEVADA last year⁉️⁉️ They are ALREADY using it to expand abortion access ‼️ This is why 👏we 👏need👏 a federal #ERANow

ACLU@ACLU

Nevada's new Equal Rights Amendment guarantees equality under the law. A ban on covering abortion through Medicaid unconstitutionally deprives women and people who can become pregnant of the ability to shape their own futures as equal members of society.

Vice President Kamala Harris Archived
56 years ago today, Thurgood Marshall was confirmed to the Supreme Court. As the first Black justice to serve on the highest court in our land, he safeguarded civil rights, equality, and opportunity for all. He remains a hero of mine and an inspiration to so many more.

This photograph captures Harriet Tubman at her residence in Auburn, New York, in 1911, just two years prior to her passing. I only recently learned of her struggles with seizures, a result of a piece of metal lodged in her head. As a teenager, Tubman endured a traumatic incident when a slaveowner struck her head with a 2-pound lead weight, originally intended for another fleeing slave. Tubman recalled this attack as "breaking my skull," leading to agonizing headaches and seizures that intermittently rendered her unconscious. Remarkably, despite these challenges, she remained dedicated to her work on the Underground Railroad and her service during the Civil War. Her reputation was so renowned that escaped slaves knew to wait patiently for her to regain consciousness if she ever collapsed, which she always did. Additionally, Tubman carried a pistol, which she would wield when runaway slaves hesitated or considered giving up. With the pistol pointed, she presented them with a stark choice: continue their escape with her or face immediate death. Remarkably, she never lost anyone on the Underground Railroad. After the Civil War, Tubman's efforts allowed her to contribute significantly to her community, aiding veterans and freed slaves. In the 1890s, she underwent brain surgery to remove the metal fragment from her skull. Surprisingly, she opted to forgo anesthesia, instead choosing to bite a bullet, emulating the Union soldiers she had seen endure amputations. In her own words, she described the procedure as the doctor "sawed open my skull, and raised it up, and now it feels more comfortable." Years after her own escape from slavery, Tubman returned to rescue her enslaved husband, only to discover he had remarried and had no intention of leaving his new wife. Despite her initial frustration, Tubman chose not to create a scene and continued to lead numerous other enslaved individuals to freedom. Her remarkable life came to an end in 1913, surrounded by friends and family. Her last words to those in the room were, "I go to prepare a place for you."

Wow. I just asked my Uber driver how he’s doing. He said, “Amazing” because, after 20+ years of trying to pay off student loans, he finally saw his loans forgiven & feels “much more hopeful.” Folks, THIS is the impact that President Biden’s policies is having & it’s incredible.

I've been called names because I see the truth about Trump, but this comes from people who see a 78yo, overweight, makeup wearing, petty, vain man as some sort of holy mixture of George Washington, Abe Lincoln, Rambo & Jesus... and they say I'm deluded & brainwashed #FreshWords

@KiranBrains @SA2020 I could not be more disappointed in our city. This needs to be remembered when certain council members think they’re ready to run for mayor
