Hoping for critics of color to ‘emerge’ is like hoping for choreographers of color, or female choreographers, to ‘emerge.’ They are there. It’s up to editors and publishers (like artistic directors & venue gatekeepers) to make space for them on the stage. Or not. /1

Appalling – YouTube & social media are an existential threat to humanity if they are amplifying climate conspiracies and denial over truth to **two billion people** Climate is a collective action problem that depends on global agreement. YouTube is destroying that agreement.

BREAKING NEWS: The US #SupremeCourt has taken the animals’ side! 🙌 They’re allowing bans on cruel caged confinement of farm animals to stand in California & Massachusetts. In their decision, they also held up the ban on inhumane #FoieGras! 🎉 #Victory blog.humanesociety.org/2019/…

@kettering No - sugarcoating problems, especially ones obviously disrupting people's lives, isn't an effective or honest way to communicate.
