Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

“Paris has embarked on a grand transformation, planting 155k trees, adding hundreds of kms of bike lanes, pedestrianising 300 school streets and banning cars from the banks of the Seine. Parking has been turned into green space…Fewer parents fear their child being run over when they walk to school.”

On the scene here in Biddeford where ICE shot and killed someone this morning. Still so many unknowns. Let me be clear: Federal immigration enforcement should NOT be using deadly force against anyone in our communities. Period. We need a full, independent investigation, and we need answers.

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

This is correct. And coupled with the attacks on people of color in the workplace, colleges, and the military, we are likely to see a profound resegregation across American society.
