I JUST KEEP TALKING by Nell Irvin Painter is out in the world! If you love art, history, essays, deeply important writing...this book is for you. Henry Louis Gates, Jr. calls her “one of the towering Black intellects of the last half century” and...

As we protest the slaughter of Muslims in #Gaza, we must also protest China’s slaughter of Muslim #Uyghurs. Unless we do, the right wing will attack our moral stance as anti-Semitic, which we all know it is not. A disappearance in Xinjiang ft.com/content/ca0364… via @ft

Yesterday I was at the ⁦Glenstone Museum⁩ and was moved to encounter ⁦Simone Leigh’s 2022 sculpture “Satellite.” I first saw her work at ⁦Marcus Garvey Park⁩ years ago and have followed her genius ever since. #blackartist #blackwomen

There was and will be only one Marian Robinson. In our sadness, we are lifted up by the extraordinary gift of her life. And we will spend the rest of ours trying to live up to her example. barackobama.medium.com/statement-on-t…

If ⁦Jeff Bezos⁩ doesn’t right the ship, the ⁦The Washington Post⁩ where I was an investigative reporter for many years will cease to exist as a meaningful publication speaking truth to power. via @NYTimes nytimes.com/2024/06/07/wor…

This story is a travesty. It never would have appeared under the leadership of ⁦Donald Graham⁩. I can’t understand how @jeffbezos is permitting this embarrassing tailspin at ⁦⁦The Washington Post⁩ to develop. washingtonpost.com/style/media/20…

This investigative story in ⁦The Washington Post⁩ is a triumph of reporting and analysis. Huge congrats to ⁦Jessica Contrera⁩, Jenn Abelson, ⁦John D. Harden⁩, ⁦Hayden Godfrey, ⁦FOIA Nate📄⁩. washingtonpost.com/investigations…

When is ⁦Jeff Bezos⁩ going to realize he has made a mistake? We all make them. The great men and women are those who have no fear of correcting them. washingtonpost.com/investigations…

'Grandmother of Juneteenth' Opal Lee walked from Fort Worth to Washington DC in her late 80s to draw attention to the need to make #Juneteenth a national holiday. It took her over a year. She succeeded! I loved listening to her voice on the NPR segment. npr.org/2024/06/19/nx-…

Black family owners of Alabama’s civil rights stops and one black man’s quest to preserve them. Thank you ⁦Robert Samuels for this deep dive. While ⁦Jeff Bezos⁩ vacays on his $500 million yacht, power journalism like this is in danger. washingtonpost.com/nation/interac…

Dear @flotus, I respect you & your husband @potus. Don’t delude yourselves. Accept that the race is too close. Realize that given the threat to this country Trump represents, @potus will be remembered as the greatest statesman of our entire history if he steps aside. Now.

Ezra Klein on Why the Democrats Are Too Afraid of Replacing Biden newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/e…

This isn’t your typical political rant about the stakes of an election. American democracy is on life support. A radical coalition of the decent is the only way it will be saved.

I fear for our nation. SCOTUS Updates has just made the presidency into a monarchy. We all know that #Trump is now free to create an #AmericanDictatorship.

#Biden, a man of integrity, grit and honor. For once in these degraded times, a leader puts country above self.

Less than 24 hours & already Dem folk worrying, “No way this country votes for black woman president,” & some black writers complaining Kamala Harris is “an imperialist cop.” I say: Politics is the art of the possible, not the art of the pure.

Today my husband Richard Price and I visited Museo Sitio de Memoria ESMA in Buenos Aires. We will never forget what we learned about what can happen when a right wing government detains, tortures and kills its own citizens in secrecy.

El guionista y novelista norteamericano Richard Price y su esposa, la periodista y escritora Lorraine Adams, visitaron el Museo Sitio. Ambos se mostraron muy conmovidos por los contenidos exhibidos en la muestra permanente y por el relato del guía.
