Hi Tiara — it's Roger Lau. Our team at the DNC let me know that you're one of our most engaged grassroots supporters, and we can't thank you enough for staying up to date on our work.
We're in the final stretch now, and we wish we didn't have to ask more of you but today, we have to ask you to take the next step and chip in $7 to the DNC. But first,

Girl. Fucking Eminiem's ass? It's all over, whatever the Black community was putting up with him as far as letting his mediocre ass get praises as a genius just for being white, all goodwill he had with us? It's all over. He chose white supremacy & that's who he rolls will. So bye forever.

“Political differences do not have to end relationships.” 🤦🏽‍♀️ This is why Black folks say we don’t have many true allies. Whiteness > Black allyship. This is also why so many white folks don’t care abt what’s going on, or feel a sense of urgency about defeating it. To most, it’s just “politics.” 😒

None of those are very big, but we can all do SOMETHING. Together, small things add up and we can achieve positive change. Try looking for local Black organizations to ask how you can help, things like that. (I avoid indivisible and surj, but that’s a personal choice.) 3/3

Here are some small things this particular ww does to try to make a difference: Most of the politicians I donate to are black, and Black politician are the only ones to whom I give monthly contributions. Our local BLM chapter helps one community member per month with housing costs— 1/

You know I grew up rural and I hear that a lot of people still say it. They are afraid of supposedly alienating people. What they refuse to understand is that the racist powers that be that count on that silence and complicity. A person's silence and fear empower the racism.

Good morning Dear wp, I know sometimes it’s hard to know what to say. I get it. BUT, instead of saying “I am ashamed of my ppl/school/etc,” say this instead: “This is enraging. Do you want backup? What can I do?” Bc expression shame/outrage doesn’t do anything for the harmed ppl.

University of Texas at Austin will eliminate 4 majors—African & African diaspora studies; Mexican American & Latina/o studies; women’s and gender studies; and race, indigeneity and migration. Faculty in Social and Culture Analysis Department received no explanation as to why they are being cut.

Also, comparing this to Wu-Tang Clan is disingenuous. Wu wasn't out here costuming Asian culture; they integrated elements of Eastern philosophy & kung-fu INTO Black culture whilst also acknowledging its origins. They are the definition of cultural APPRECIATION. blacksky.community/profile/did:...

See, here's the thing (and what I'm about to say also applies to K-Pop/Korean music, in general): If they had just sang w/o the overexaggerated gestures and sloppy "urban" wardrobes, this would've been more in line w/ "cultural/genre appreciation." Instead, it's appropriation & cultural costuming.

I read a couple hundred death penalty cases for a case once and I think you’d all be shocked at how often this happens. The death penalty is one of the cruelest things in our system, an obvious violation of the 8th amendment cruel and unusual punishment clause, but we just love to kill.

We (a lot of Black elder millennials) were told to do or not do something before “they” came and took us. Mamanem: If you don’t go tie them shoes before they come take you away! Why would they take us? Because we look like we don’t have home training and are neglected. But that fear? +

A key component of the Cambridge Analytica outrage was your friends subjecting you to data theft without your consent or knowledge. Facebook is running the same playbook on your text messages. Even if you’re not on Meta properties, they’re ingesting your interactions.

Aten installed Muse on both his iPhone and a Mac mini that he uses to test out various Al agents and tech. It took Meta a single day to begin "helpfully" pitching article ideas based on texts he'd sent to a podcast co-host.
When he asked Muse how it got the information, it said that it read banners from incoming texts. But that's not true, either.
After doing a little digging, Aten says Muse synced 187,000 lines from his Messages database, despite Full Disk Access being Off.

Unless Aten is the most popular person on the face of the planet, I sincerely doubt he'd gotten 187,000 lines of text in roughly 24 hours. What happened is that, without permission, Muse went into the app and downloaded the information.
He had not given Muse permission to access Messages, and full disk access was not enabled. It just went ahead and uploaded those texts anyway.
Muse can take "unexpected actions" indeed.

If you like me are a survivor of rape who is maybe losing her mind a bit this week, I recommend a few movies about surviving men/holding them accountable: “Sorry, Baby” “Is God Is” and “Supergirl” Supergirl was, in a way, about fraternity rape culture I discuss them here:

You should go see Supergirl

It's pop art that is unapologetically political.
