I give Bob Kraft a lot of credit for making this hire because Black coaches with Mayo’s experience typically don’t get these kinds of opportunities. I give Mayo credit for saying this because a lot of Black coaches in his position, wouldn’t. What he said is not controversial.

In 2001, after I cast the lone vote against the authorization for endless war, I received a call from Coretta Scott King. “Martin would be very proud of you,” she said. I have never backed down from our fight for the peaceful world Dr. King dreamed of—and I never will.

I just need to say this because it doesn’t seem like we’re getting it: There’s something deeply wrong with a multiracial society that is proudly & loudly opposing and shuttering offices working towards equity and diversity. Explicit anti-Blackness is being once again normalized.

I’ve not been a fan of DEI because I think the offices often serve as window dressing w no power, but the fact that it’s not considered fringe or racist or radical to use state power to shutter DEI offices & to openly oppose diversity and inclusion efforts should be frightening.

The fact that so much of the reporting on this is that it’s sort of curious or just those Republicans acting up again shows how successful the right has been in normalizing a radically regressive agenda that is upsetting what we pretended were societal norms.

Even if policy wise Americans were willing to do almost nothing to alleviate racial inequality, we societally at least pretended this was an important value/goal. That four years after George Floyd we’ve completely swung the other way is dangerous. We’ve gone from woke to asleep.

I am the only candidate in CA’s US Senate race demanding an unconditional ceasefire. My call now reflects a lifetime of anti-war advocacy. After 9/11, I cast the lone vote against the War in Afghanistan & led against the War in Iraq. We need a proven peace & security Senator.

For all the complaints and hand-wringing about a radical, left wing cabal running universities and colleges, the response of administrators to student protests reveals the true nature of the neoliberal university. Irony.

This country has more force for student protesters than they did for Jan. 6 or white supremacists marching through campuses with Tiki torches.

I really do not understand the calculus of constantly insulting young people, and presuming what they do or do not know. Also, college students during the CRM didn’t have to understand the entire history of racism to know segregation was immoral. Did BLM protestors have to know

On this day, the 70th anniversary of the landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling, I reflect on the fact that 75 percent of Black children learn in segregated, unequal schools today. And that a decade after I told our profession that our failure to cover segregation meant we
