Jingling bike bells, protesters in New York on Saturday chanted, “Whose streets? Our streets” and “Say his name: George Floyd.” Many had handmade signs — including “We Demand Change” and “Defund the Police” — taped to their backpacks, racks and handlebars. nyti.ms/2BXNXQA

The @nytimes is now using capital Black in reference to the race of people. It is sticking with lowercase white for now. The decision taps into a broader discussion of race, identity and power as I wrote about recently. nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/bl…

A pattern distinct, and opposite from the worst-hit countries in Europe: Italy, Spain, France, UK and Belgium that have all descended @OurWorldInData
Said Ketchman retweeted
NEW: Are people of African descent black or Black? It might seem like a trivial difference, but questions of capitalization are steeped in difficult issues of race, identity & power. We're even having the debate @nytimes & I explored the nuances. /1 nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/bl…

That is a record high for the United States.

On Juneteenth, a reminder of how precarious black freedom is: Not only did enslaved Texans get news of their freedom 2 years late, but when they wanted to celebrate, they couldn’t find a public space that allowed black ppl to gather. Here’s a brief history I wrote last year. 👇🏾

In more than 2,000 cities and towns across the country.
On any given day, the protesters spill out onto the streets.
They march. They kneel. They sing.
They cry. They pray. They light candles.
George Floyd’s death has sparked protests across all 50 states.
This is how the movement spread. nyti.ms/2UGX3rd
