White supremacy is a helluva drug. How else would the man who once referred to a duly elected governor as “the woman in Michigan” call her “lockup queen” on the very day the FBI foiled a White militia attempt to kidnap her. And these are all White people, so imagine...!
Rhetorical Question: Would a Black man survive a police encounter like this? If your answer is “no” (and - yes - the answer is “no”), then you should understand everything about #BlackLivesMatter instagram.com/tv/CEg7ba4H1UF…
A video called "Forgotten Men and Women" aired during last night's #RepublicanConvention. The video began with four people describing who they think are "forgotten," and then shifted to a partisan message. This thread explores what makes their descriptions a partisan thing. (1/6)
"Real people that work hard every day and they just want to earn a good living and enjoy life." Are there synthetic lazy people out there who would rather be broke and hate life? (5/6)

If your response to seeing a Black man shot over and over in the back is to say “he should’ve followed instructions,” you are the problem. "Not complying" with an officer is NOT punishable by death under any circumstances, let alone an extra-judicial execution. #BlackLivesMatter
When politicians & pundits say "Working Class Men" & "Suburban Women," it offends people who are not White because they know that the politician & pundits really mean "White People." Pass The Word: There are people who are not White in the working class & living in suburbs.
#IfYouAreWhite and you're struggling with: "But why aren't black people just as upset about [insert the number of people killed in Chicago last weekend / Black on Black crime / the shooting of that child in... / etc.]?"
CONSIDER: 2. If your example is a specific incident: Was anyone arrested? If so, how long did it take? If anyone protested, what would they protesting?

#IfYouAreWhite avoid saying enslaved Africans were first “transported” to North America in 1619. The movement of humans forced into servitude or exploitation is known as trafficking, not transportation. #wordsmatter
The @NYTimes’s 1619 Project wants you to believe our country was founded for human bondage. What a dark vision of America’s birth. What a disturbed reading of history. What a slander on our great people.
Wherein stormtroopers wearing escalation gear march into a peaceful, unarmed & predominately White-attended vigil for #ElijahMcClain, with many children present. White supremacy’s greatest fear is White folks sticking up for Black folks. Do you? Will you? thecut.com/2020/06/protester…
