Be true to what you said on paper. MLK Day isn’t just about remembering him— it’s about remembering what he demanded. MLK called out America’s hypocrisy—plain and direct. “Somewhere I read…” Freedom of speech. Freedom of assembly. Freedom of the press. The right to protest. #OnyxReceipts

This isn’t random. It’s coordinated. When you strip data, erase history, and defund progress, you’re rolling back civil rights at a scale we haven’t seen since Reconstruction. Read the full Axios story here: www.axios.com/2025/11/29/funding-cu…

Together these moves amount to an unprecedented rollback of civil rights progress—the largest since Reconstruction. The cuts + deletions are drawing MORE attention to Black history, says the National Urban League president. To be clear: The record shows the Tr*mps have alwasy been racists. ALWAYS.
