"Were he trying to raise the cost of diesel, Trump would be hard pressed to improve upon the combination of trade wars, tariffs, and a Strait of Hormuz-choking Mideast war. At this point, he may as well propose doubling the 24.4 cents per gallon federal diesel tax."

The first time an adult told me to "go back to Africa" I was seven. I was extremely confused because I had lived in the suburban neighborhood she just moved to my whole life. It expanded into one of the only times I ever saw my terminally polite mother read anyone the riot act.

A knock-on effect of this is that the MCU somewhat erased the memory of how much the "PIRATES" movies would otherwise be considered the foundational 21st Century blockbusters, because so much of the "Marvel-Disney success recipe" jumps off from there (RDJ as Stark doesn't exist w/out Jack Sparrow)

Nat Turner was a terrorist. At least, that's what they'd expect the Black community to call him if it were today. He was born October 2, 1800....or 236 years ago today. And somehow they expected a man born enslaved to never want to rebel. To escape. To take revenge.
Four books with Nat Turner as the subject. Left to right, top to bottom.

1. Ten Black Writers Respond to William Styron's "Confessions."

2. The Confessions of Nat Turner by William Styron
