John Lewis and C.T. Vivian loved this country so much that they risked their lives so that it might live up to its promise. They gave all of themselves to the cause of freedom and justice, and inspired generations to follow their example. Now it’s up to us to continue the work.

@BarackObama ("Barack Obama") replied to a tweet by BarackObama:

As Republican legislatures across the country deliberately try to make it harder to cast a ballot, we need to keep fighting to make sure every citizen has a voice and a vote. The future of our country is at stake.

New: Hundreds of Frito-Lay factory workers are striking in Kansas bc they're forced to work 12 hr days, 7 days/week.

I spoke to Mark McCarter, a Frito-Lay employee for 37 yrs, about why he's striking, watching his colleagues die & how this job ruins lives

As a female journalist trying to interview women at a right-wing protest over trans rights at a Los Angeles spa, I was just chased, pushed, and thrown to the ground.

Just got thrown to the ground by right-wing anti-pedophile protesters as a crowd coverged on me and chased me. They threw water at me and screamed about Jesus and said to grab my phone. Police would not let me through the police line but after I got thrown on the ground they did.

So why haven’t platforms like Facebook and Twitter taken broader action against this small number of accounts whose intent is clearly to use their platforms to spread COVID/vaccine misinformation?

Here’s a hypothesis: they generate a lot of engagement.

"Telling a family member, over the phone, that they’re going to die from this virus and there’s nothing else we can do, I had a lot of people say I don’t believe you.

Notably the approach of information policing these platforms have taken does not seem to be working very well

In terms of actionable outcomes I’d like to see here, I think Facebook and Twitter need to do a better job of identifying groups and individual threat actors responsible for spreading dangerous misinformation https://www.npr.org/2021/05/13/996570855/disinformation-dozen-test-facebooks-twitters-ability-to-curb-vaccine-hoaxes

Every time a TERF responds to trans people talking about transphobia w/ “get help” what they mean is “get conversion therapy.” So what they’re *really* saying is “your identity is a disease & you shouldn’t exist”

There should be consequences for journalistic malpractice like this. Not only inverting the x-axis, but making it seem like this data is crime rates when it’s really public opinion. “Journalists” like Chris Cuomo are *directly* responsible for mass caging Black & Brown people.

By inverting the x-axis, CNN's Chris Cuomo manages to take a drop in crime and make it look like it is spiking.

This is a crime against journalism and absolutely blatant fearmongering.

Okay, my challenge of the day.

I want you to brag about yourself for one tweet. No humblebragging, no apologizing, no including your faults at all.

For some, this is a breeze, some have never done it even once.

Please use hashtag #MyBrag and say something great about you.
