This is a masterclass in using a moral compass as a guide. Reading an excerpt from the book helped me realize that he's not claiming expertise about this conflict. He talks about the narratives that are told about the Palestinians. And it's just one topic within the book.
Ta-Nehisi Coates’ new book, “The Message,” is a trio of interconnected essays that examine how the stories people tell — or avoid telling — can shape and even distort reality: “I am most concerned always with those that don’t have a voice.” cbsn.ws/4gJxe2g

As Dr. Planey noted, "This increase in child poverty was a policy choice."
Poverty and child poverty in 2022 rose by largest amount on record in data back to 1967, reflecting the expiration of pandemic relief measures that policymakers allowed to expire. cbpp.org/research/poverty-an…

I remember Djoker's antics well when he was a young player. Many players disliked him. Now, he is older and an ambassador. Great. But give Shelton time to find his way as well. The Djoker's hypocrisy annoys me.
Even if he’s not getting that rematch vs Shelton in the end (that match ended mid-press conference), I enjoyed getting to talk to Novak Djokovic about how he reacted to his player critics early in his career. Djokovic was quick to name Federer as the clearest of them. #AusOpen

If Ben Shelton had won in straight sets, I would be asleep now. 🥱 I hope Shelton wins. #AusOpen

Djoker's fans are obsessed with putting Ben Shelton "in his place." It seems that we cannot have a discussion about Shelton without that one tired gif. And the hypocrisy of the Djoker claiming some type of moral superiority... 🙄
Ben Shelton was asked about Novak Djokovic saying ‘he did not behave correctly with respect on the court’: “I don't really have anything else to say on the whole US Open situation. I feel like I've been asked about it constantly in the last four or five months. I feel like I've said my peace on the matter. I would rather just let it settle & move forward. We're in Australia now, & we're at the Australian Open & not at the US Open anymore.”

Ugh 😤
15 GOP governors refuse to let impoverished families use a new federal summer program that grants $120 per child to buy food at grocery stores and farmers markets. Why? Reynolds, Iowa: “Childhood obesity has become an epidemic.” Pillen, Nebraska: “I don’t believe in welfare.”
