Carolyn Bryant, the woman who got Emmet Till lynched, has died.
Anyone who thinks Emmett Till being lynched in 1955 is ancient history should remember that 18 current members of Congress are older than him and the white woman Carolyn Bryant who got him lynched just *today* died—and that without any accountability whatsoever.
In short, this systemic racism and racial terror against Black people is not ancient history. It's not even history.
It's contemporary reality.
“Today, the big-foot Politico column about accepting a Trump nomination quotes a ‘shrewd’ GOP strategist content to ‘go into the basement, ride out the tornado,’ which raises the question, when exactly did you leave the basement, gimp?” https://thetriad.thebulwark.com/p/brokeback-party

"It is incredibly telling that the Tennessee GOP would invite members of the Danube Institute, as it speaks to their intentions to turn Tennessee into a laboratory for autocracy."
The Danube Institute is Trying to Bring Orbánism to Tennessee - Global Project Against Hate and Extremism
"The Danube Institute’s invitation to speak to the Tennessee state Senate is an explicit attempt to bring Orbánism to the United States."

The evidence presented against the Discord leaker portrays him as something much more alarming than a concerned anti-war leaker. So if MTG was wrong about him, is it possible that the Jan. 6 rioters were bad actors, too?? https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/04/27/jack-teixeira-disclosures-green-tucker-carlson/
👀 Governor Jay Inslee (D-WA) imho is the best and most effective Governor from the West Coast - it's not close. Another powerhouse move. He is getting it done. #uspol

The woman whose accusation led to a child being beaten to death died without ever facing justice because America is a failed state without the rule of law.
Yet another filthy savage gets away with it. Because America. These “people” are not fit to participate in civilization and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.

My mother works in a nursing home in The Netherlands.
Her co-worker got #covid, which resulted in blood clots, a leg amputation and diabetes. Another co-worker stopped working due to #LongCovid after an ICU stay. Many more have to call in sick very often, my mother too.
Residents are starting to get strokes more often than before.
Most of the nursing personnel didn't get vaccinated because they believed it would make them infertile.
Nobody masks. Everyone there believes #covid19 is mild.
I’m not ‘average’ in terms of health; I’m 68, have had Multiple Sclerosis over 40 years, have Hashimoto’s disease, kidney problems, and a rare bleeding disorder. I was always in a group at higher risk from COVID.
Please, when you’re out in public, if you’re feeling the least bit ‘off’, wear a mask. For people like me, for people like my son who is my caregiver & is somehow blaming himself for getting exposed at work. . .
Masks aren’t a 100% solution but they do make a huge difference for so many of us.
Please, wear a mask.
