Quick iconic comic cover edit to laud Ilhan Omar.

Captain America comic #1 with an edit to place a caricature of Ilhan Omar over Cap so she is punching Hitler instead of Cap. The comic masthead has also been changed to her name.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

When Sierra arrives at the airport, she expects to take her pet pig on the plane. Reading through the alphabetized “no-fly” list, Sierra realizes they won’t be flying that day. With some creative thinking, however, she might get a pig to fly after all! #DVpit #pb

Valerie collects clues about people’s faces, actions & words. Like puzzle pieces, they fit together, helping her make sense of the world. When the pieces get “jumbled”, Valerie is left to put them back together so she doesn’t feel quite so lost. #DVpit #PB #ND

In ROCK STAR, Diamond searches for rocks & fossils in her uncle’s creek. She can identify anything from gastropods to graptolites. But, when Diamond finds a piece that is museum quality, the suggestion of donating “her” treasure leads to some BIG feelings. #DVpit #PB #STEM

The sister-brother duo of Astronaut Girl and Starfish Baby are the best helpers a parent could ask for, at least in their minds. So when Mommy gets sick, they know just how to help and—for better or worse—won’t let anything get in their way of making her feel better. #BluePit #PB #POC #BluePit📖 #Q
