This week, I signed the Freedom to Read Act — ensuring age-appropriate books are accessible in our schools and public libraries. Our children deserve every opportunity to cultivate their curiosity without being subject to politically-motivated book bans.

The mass deportation of illegal immigrants is a racist purge of the Latino and Black communities. Notice no raids of the Russian community in Brighton Beach or the Irish community of Boston, where known undocumented immigrants regularly live. No European immigrant communities

A reoccurring question - what marks as the time period that “makes American great again?!” This memo demonstrates it’s the time before 1964. Soon it’ll be before 1954 Brown v. Board. I’m here to fight and argue for the humanity of everyone on this list!

Pre-1960s: Jim Crow laws were state and local laws that enforced racial segregation in the United States from the late 19th century until the 1960s. Current: Acknowledgment of race and racism is illegal via executive order. Does that mean segregated places can re-emerge?!

Ohio’s “Black Laws”—measures passed in the early 1800s to curtail Black immigration—codified white supremacy in the state. The laws barred Black people from testifying in court against white people, demanded that Black people produce proof of freedom “on demand,” and required new
