A thread on birthright citizenship I wrote in 2018, that unfortunately remains relevant. I always thought this was where it was all headed. Abolishing birthright citizenship for the non-white and non-rich. And why I teach on United States v. Wong Kim Ark every semester. Who was Wong Kim Ark? 1/

If you don't live in LA and have been struggling to understand how much land the fires have encompassed, use this @calmatters.org tool to overlay the fires atop where you live, to get a sense of scale: calmatters.org/environment/... Great work by @jeremiak.com and John Osborn D'Agostino.

This TikTok account is of Mexican firefighters helping battle these Los Angeles fires. I haven’t seen much coverage. A few posts are to the President-elect who has insulted their county and people, yet they still lend a hand. www.tiktok.com/@angelaguzma...

The LA Times photo desk, which is doing incredible work covering these brutal fires, has set up a Bluesky account that is among the newest ones we have verified. They are well worth following right now. @latimesphotos.bsky.social

In the nearly 40 years I've been a journalist, this is my bleakest assessment and outlook, but it also lays out what we need to do for 2025 to #HoldTheLine for our values and to enrich our democracies globally. Hope comes from action! www.rappler.com/plus-members...

"Ableism isn’t just about disability. It’s connected to other forms of structural oppression and has always been," James Salanga says. "If newsrooms want to cover that seriously, they must begin analyzing ableism seriously — across journalism’s culture, history, and frames."

👀 There have been questions about this story since it published. For the sake of transparency and trust, CNN needs to issue an update ASAP. Even if it is, “we hear your concerns and we’re investigating.”
