#ResistanceRoots Henrietta Lacks died on this day in 1951 in Baltimore, Md. She only became well-known for what she contributed after her death. However, she deserves to be remembered as a beautiful young mother who was much more than her immortalized human cell line used in medical research. /1

Henrietta Lacks, ca. late 1940s. Lacks is the unwitting mother of modern medical research whose exploitation forced the world to reinvent medical ethics. As the source of the HeLa cell line, she unknowingly gave humanity its first “immortal” human cells, enabling medical advances that have touched millions of lives worldwide. The dark side of these medical breakthroughs is the stark reality of paternalistic, Jim Crow-era medicine, where a poor Black woman’s body could be harvested without her knowledge or informed consent. For decades, Henrietta was reduced to an anonymous laboratory code. Today, her descendants, artists and global communities have fought to ensure she is remembered as a person. Her final resting place is marked with a granite headstone honoring her not just as a medical miracle, but as a mother who loved to cook, wear bright red lipstick, and take care of her family.

When he offers/bribes something of value (no matter how modest) weeks before an election—that he didn’t care or dare to provide during the two years since the last election—he’s telling his followers right to their face that he thinks they’re dumb af. That’s all.

A short lesson on diesel exports: Each day, the US produces about 1.3 million more barrels of diesel than it consumes and ranks among the world’s largest exporters of diesel. The high price of diesel in the USA is NOT due to a shortage. The price is high because it is set by world markets. 1/3

Overheard Trump's voice (as I clicked to make it go away) saying that where he goes to campaign they win and where he doesn't they don't, and I realized that's part of why he's campaigning in safe red districts. He wants credit for the wins and no blame for losses. It's about his ego, not the party.

Just a reminder that the few remaining experts at the CDC's food-borne illness division identified Taylor Farms as the source of the cyclospora outbreak very early on, but because the owner of Taylor Farms is a big Trump donor, he was able to prevent a recall for weeks as thousands fell ill.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.
