    White women are every bit as guilty of upholding white supremacy as white dudes. This is a fact. Not a judgment.

    Facebook systematically silences Brown and Black women speaking out against racism, while allowing white supremacists to post hate, along w videos of themselves shooting guns, waving confederate flags. Facebook supports Nazis and silences marginalized voices.

    Most Americans have no clue that three American children were held hostage by border officials at O’Hare yesterday for more than 12 hours. Held hostage so CBP could trap their undocumented parents. Most folks have no clue because the media has barely covered it. Fascism.

    Being a Brown or Black person in this country is terrifying. So many friends don’t want to leave their homes, are scared to let their kids out of their sight, don’t trust their colleagues, their neighbors, their “friends.” This level of fear will kill you. And that’s the point.

    Imagine if white folks spent less time caring about their feelings and more time caring about Brown and Black lives.

    So tired of the failures of the Democratic party. We won the House, and they still won't impeach our racist, bigoted, corrupt President. Apart from the 95 members who voted for impeachment, the rest should be voted out.

    Imagine if you were attacked, your family imperiled like Ilhan Omar, by the most powerful people in the country. Her poise and grace is amazing but remember, she’s not allowed to show anger. She’s not allowed to be mad that the President is trying to get her killed.

    Donald Trump hasn’t told me to go back to my country. He hasn’t sent me countless pics of Indians defecating in the street nor has he called me a Muslim cunt. He hasn’t sent me violent images nor has he stalked my family, friends and colleagues. But lots of you have.

    Donald Trump didn’t invent racism. He has shown America how racist it’s always been. The depths, the lengths and everything in between.

    Just off the phone with Korey Wise. I told him to get his tux ready. He said: “You did that, Queen. You told the story. You did what you came to do. They had to see it. They listened.”
