What’s actually disturbing is the feature of the Roberts Court to accept lavish gifts from billionaires, hide that fact, & then rule in their favor. It would be an insult to democracy to respect this conduct. Legitimacy is not a birthright - it is earned. They are destroying it

Still processing the loss of Alan Arkin, one of the most gifted & versatile actors of all time. He was also a great director which I learned while appearing alongside his wife Barbara Dana & son Anthony in ROOM SERVICE off-B'way. He is simply irreplaceable. #ripAlanArkin

In states with restrictive laws, the number of hate crimes on K-12 campuses has more than quadrupled since the onset of a divisive culture war that has often centered on the rights of LGBTQ+ youth. wapo.st/3PiFlXt

At the same time, calls to LGBTQ+ youth crisis hotlines have exploded, with some advocates drawing a connection between the spike in bullying and hate crimes, and the political climate. wapo.st/3PiFlXt

Students in North Carolina have waited on a remedy to the violation of their constitutional right to education since the 90s. In 2022, the NC Supreme Court finally ordered one. Now, the state is asking for a do-over, threatening the rule of law itself. the74million.org/article/with-g…

Today Axios has extension coverage from multiple communities on segregation in schools on the 70th anniversary of #BrownvBoard. Going through multiple reports and government data, we conclude that, today, schools are growing more separate and more unequal. Here's a thread

On Juneteenth, we commemorate the anniversary of the delayed news of freedom reaching the enslaved people of Galveston, Texas. Let’s keep building on the work of the generations who came before us and making sure that the arc of the moral universe continues to bend towards

We gotta stop telling “both sides” to tone down the political rhetoric Trump wasn’t attacked by a transgender member of MS-13 who snuck in w/the Mexican caravan to be radicalized by Black Lives Matter while majoring in CRT at Antifa University It was just another random,

YOOO this is crazy! We just went #OutOfThisWorld with NASA and sent the FIRST hip hop song into space through the Deep Space Network. My song “The Rain” has officially been transmitted all the way to Venus, the planet that symbolizes strength, beauty and empowerment. The sky is

New Mexicans spoke, and we listened. Legislation to rebuild our behavioral healthcare system and deter crime is moving quickly through the Roundhouse. We hope to see broad support on these non-partisan issues. kob.com/new-mexico/san…

This crime bill improves accountability—but it's just a start. The legislature must pass the remaining #publicsafety bills now. Every delay puts communities at risk. New Mexicans deserve real protection, not excuses. I won't rest until our state is safe. #NewMexico

A cartoon about my father from the 1960s. At the time he was assassinated, a poll reflected that he was one of the most hated men in the United States. Today, his message has been distorted by many who would have hated him then, but evoke him now to deter justice and truth.
