Imagine being a white man as lazy as David Brooks and stumbling into guaranteed, unimpeachable lifelong tenure at the NYT and also having PBS and NPR and lush book publishing guar-fucking-teed for your lazy, racist drivel and saying... “You know what? It’s not enough!!!!”
So @StaceyPlaskett just showed that #EugeneGoodman literally saved Mitt Romney's life. The man is a national hero that we should never forget #ImpeachmentTrial thegrio.com/2021/01/15/cap…

I heard today from the Oval Office today that “no wars were started” during the administration. Wasn’t the insurrection a “war on democracy?” #CapitolRiot #Trump Presidency #insurrection
Tommie Smith and John Carlos had their Olympic Gold Medal stripped for silently making a stand against racial injustice. #CapitolRiots #MexicoCity1968 #SummerOlympics @TheRevAl #Olympicswimmer #Inauguration2021 @Morning_Joe @iocmedia
If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous flag or gave up on our country.
This is @CapitolPolice Officer Brian Sicknick. He lost his life last night as a result as a result of being "injured while physically engaging with protesters." He collapsed later in the office. His murder is another sad chapter in what took place here Wed @ABC7News

@michaelharriot Brilliant! But this is a problem & y they always win on messaging A simple lie sticks longer than the complicated truth While it takes a thread to explain CRT..They get to label it as teaching Kids to hate America It’s like defunding 👮♀️ They get to say get rid of 👮♀️ & it stick
2. If racism and white supremacy weren't "ordinary" then why do so many white people disagree with CRT while MOST Black people think it's important?
"These books are filled with lies. They pretend to be colorblind but they don't include a true perspective of history." Now you can disagree but ask yourself: 1. If it did not benefit white people, would the most powerful white men in the country fight so hard to preserve it?
This is a VERY VERY simplified explanation, but ask yourself this: DO YOU THINK SOMEONE IS TEACHING THIS CONCEPT IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL? Hell no. What may be true is that there are people who learned CRT and looked at the way history is taught and said:
Until Brown v. Board said "separate cannot be equal," white supremacy was so ordinary that we are STILL trying to undo its ordinariness.
Take Plessy v. Ferguson for instance. For years, the US acted as if it was possible for public accommodations to be "separate but equal" because, the south believed in the idea of race, thought that separating races was "ordinary" and that policy benefitted white people.
Well, if white supremacy exists, and it is normal, and it benefits white people, then pretending as it doesn't exist, failing to eradicate it, or acting as if it ISN'T normal not only allows white supremacy to flourish, it FURTHER NORMALIZES it.
You could say: "Oh yeah, there were only white men in the room when they agreed to include that in the Constitution." And one of the things that critical race theory says is that the idea of race-neutral "colorblindness" actually invigorates white supremacy. How?
Now, CRT was MOSTLY used to examine the law. For instance, to understand why enslaved Black people were counted as 3/5ths of a person in the constitution, you could point to the fact that there were more slaves in the South. You could look at congressional representation, or...
How are Mexicans "Hispanic" but Pueblo Indians considered "Native American" just because they are separated by a river? I don't know either
5. The interpretation and socialization of races evolve. Irish and italians were once not considered to be "white people." To keep a white majority, Hispanic people may soon be considered "white." Also, what is Hispanic, anyway? How are Dominicans "Hispanic" but Haitians "Black"?
