So that Two Distant Strangers short? That just won an Oscar? They stole that...from an Asian woman.

A fascinating, subtler point here: AI-colorization is probably coloring historical images using a Western and/or modernist lens. Think of the vibrancy of Islamic architecture in the former Ottoman Empire and what this makes dull.

One of the wonderful volunteers who digitized Prokudin-Gorsky's photos!

We all watched George Floyd get murdered, and now for the next several weeks, the entire news cycle will be dominated by Derek Chauvin’s defense lawyers arguing that George Floyd does not deserve justice.
That's trauma.
It's ok to not be alright. Take space for yourself.

At this time, we will be using our platform to amplify voices from the Black and African American community at Microsoft.
And we’re starting with Megan Carpenter: msft.it/6003TcJ0V.
ALT "I personally don’t want the flashy signs or symbols of allyship, I’m not looking for the buttons and t-shirts and hashtags. I want an ally who pays attention to what is happening outside their own community or perspective. I want an ally who knows that these things are happening to people like me, without me needing to tell them that they are happening to people like me." - Megan Carpenter

They deleted this tweet. This is deeply, deeply fucked up. No excuses and no other way to describe it.
@NYCTSubway put the benches back, restore 24 hour service, and stop throwing cops at all of your problems, you inhumane ghouls.

Amber, your show continues to facilitate meaningful and honest and cathartic discussions in my mixed race marraige. My hubby and I want to thank you so much for what being brave enough to do what you're doing and doing it with so much style! ❤

Why did I learn more about this period of American history in this six minute video than in 12 years of public education and a four year degree?!

This is unacceptable.
We now need to know more about @RobinhoodApp’s decision to block retail investors from purchasing stock while hedge funds are freely able to trade the stock as they see fit.
As a member of the Financial Services Cmte, I’d support a hearing if necessary.
More than half of all Robinhood users own at least some GameStop stock.
They are now unable to freely trade it; the app is only allowing users to close out their positions. vice.com/en/article/m7ak7y/r…

Woke up this morning thinking about how after Abraham Lincoln emancipated the slaves, he paid slaveowners reparations. Not the enslaved. That was his way of helping to ✌🏾unify ✌🏾the country and pacify angry white folks.
Anyway, what’chall having for breakfast?

Fact check: None of the racial justice protests this summer turned into insurrection against the Congress.

I'm still in a dark place coping with the fact that I was shot with rubber bullets and tear gassed 7 months ago for peacefully protesting in the middle of the afternoon and these traitors were let in by, took selfies with, and casually strolled out past police.

Both of these Americas are us. How we respond to the events of yesterday will determine which America we will be. (7/8)
Ayuna Vogel (she/they) retweeted
Both of these Americas are us. Black and Brown people have long understood this. They’ve been exposed to the white tyranny that was on full display at yesterday’s riot since the founding of our nation. It’s the double standard that undergirds white supremacy in our nation. (6/8)
Ayuna Vogel (she/they) retweeted
It was allowed to happen. The mostly white insurrectionists roamed freely and without consequence through the heart of our democracy. The only explanation is that this was allowed to happen because they were white—not Black, Brown or Indigenous people. (2/8)
Ayuna Vogel (she/they) retweeted
Yesterday was not a protest—it was a riot to uphold white supremacy.
