@atrupar This is the leader that the country picked for a second time. We need to take a deep breath and examine ourselves as to what it is in us that makes this type of leadership attractive? @lmauricecpr

WOW -- Trump crashes out and cuts his interview with Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged "You're either crooked or you're stupid. Let's call it quits. Because I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her." "I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads.

Early voting for Georgia's June 16 runoff election begins this week. Eligible voters can cast their ballots during the advance voting period before Election Day. Check your county's voting locations and hours, review your ballot, and make a plan if you intend to participate in the election process. Early voting for most counties runs June 8–12, with some counties offering additional dates and locations. #Georgia #gapol #Election

Keep negative people away from you, as if you take on what they say, you will destroy the potential in your future.

The world is full of a few rich people holding onto 90% of the wealth. My question is how much is enough, and what will you take with you?

12:30, 6/6: Clark was a bit more vocal this morning while egg-sitting. Here's an interesting clip. Do you think he hears or feels something? Only time will tell. It is Day 35 of incubation. #HellgateOsprey

There's a significant difference in how Black and white individuals experience policing in this country. The legacy of the segregation era continues to impact the lives of Black people, leading to ongoing over-policing. Tragically, it is often young lives that are lost due to entrenched mindsets and profiles that result in disproportionate responses. @AttorneyGriggs @BET @lmauricecpr @KyrieIrving @TPstudios @dpartland

The idea of 'reverse racism' is sometimes invoked by white individuals seeking to preserve existing power structures. This concept is often used as a tactic to sidestep discussions about systemic racism and the inherent advantages that white people may possess. @lmauricecpr @KyrieIrving @TPstudios @LionelRichie

Under the Trump administration, efforts to address deep-rooted inequities for Black students are being cast as discriminatory against white students apnews.com/article/trump-…

@PTNickB @AttorneyGriggs @lmauricecpr @KyrieIrving @TPstudios You left out a very important part that you definitely need to research before commenting about black people. Black people were already here in the Americas for over 300,000 years. Everyone didn't come here by boat. Look up real history and NOT WHITEWASHED history!

Black Truck Driver to Sue After NC Cop Assaults him at Courthouse NORTHAMPTON COUNTY, NC - Attorneys for Don D. Long II, the 39 year-old Black man who suffered permanent eye damage and vision impairment after being needlessly assaulted by a deputy with the Northampton County Sheriff’s Office, released video of the assault where Deputy Gregory Colson sprayed pepper spray directly to his eyes at close range after Long simply inquired whether he could enter a courtroom at the Northampton County Courthouse. In addition to releasing the videos, Long’s attorneys have filed notice with Sheriff Jack Smith, Northampton County Manager Julian Phillips and other county officials that they intend to file a lawsuit over the unlawful use of force.

The connections between Rick Chow's fatal shooting of Cyrus Carmack-Belton and the tragic murder of 14-year-old Emmett Till reveal an ongoing systemic issue surrounding the policing of Black individuals by civilians. In both instances, a Black teenager was targeted based on an accusation that spiraled out of control. Emmett Till lost his life in 1955 after Carolyn Bryant made a false allegation about unwanted advances. In a similar vein, Cyrus Carmack-Belton was pursued and shot because store owners mistakenly believed he had stolen four bottles of water, which surveillance footage later showed he had returned to the cooler. Historical civil rights cases, like the all-white jury acquittals of Till's murderers, Roy Bryant and J.W. Milam, reveal a devastating trend in America. Non-Black individuals who take the lives of Black Americans often escape accountability within the justice system. The Richland County jury's not guilty verdict for Rick Chow echoes this distressing history, prompting advocates to feel that the lives of Black youth continue to be undervalued and insufficiently protected by the courts. I have produced many videos discussing the roots and impacts of racism and how it obstructs our progress. @AttorneyGriggs @lmauricecpr @BET @icecube @TPstudios @KyrieIrving @sherylunderwood @LionelRichie @meganeellison

Shooting a child in the back after chasing them for over one hundred yards isn’t self-defense. Rick Chow is a racist with a history of violence who wanted to kill a Black person.
