Systems of white supremacy means as a Black American, when you’re minding your business, you look suspicious.

Pure Genius!!
A huge congratulations is in order! Malik Jordan has officially entered the history books of the American legal system. Having completed his entire high school curriculum by age twelve and a university degree in political science by fifteen, Malik spent eighteen months studying advanced jurisprudence independently at his kitchen table. Yesterday morning, the state supreme court confirmed he achieved a top-tier score on his very first attempt, making him the youngest licensed attorney in the nation. He begins a federal clerkship next month. How inspiring is this young man’s journey?

Netanyahu declaró ahora que no va a aceptar la cláusula que los obliga a retirarse del Líbano y ya le dijo a Donald Trump que las FDI no se van a ir. El terrorista israelí no está dispuesto a relegar su proyecto supremacista-expansionista y vuelve a poner en riesgo a toda la región. Su objetivo es la guerra y la destrucción de Medio Oriente. Estados Unidos si realmente quiere la paz tiene que liberarse de este criminal de una vez por todas y llevarlo a los Tribunales Internacionales para ser juzgado, no puede seguir financiándolo mas. No va a prosperar ningún acuerdo pacífico que incluya a un genocida de este calibre. Netanyahu es el mayor enemigo de la humanidad.

A heartbroken elderly Albanian man says Jared Kushner has taken everything he spent a lifetime building, including his land, his home, and the future he hoped to leave behind for his children. He says he returned home one day only to find his property sealed off behind barbed wire, with men in black uniforms standing guard and refusing to let him step inside the house he once called his own. In a single moment, he says, the life he had worked for was gone. “It was the end of the world. The end of the world.” “I felt imprisoned.” “They took my freedom.” “They took my livelihood.” “They took my land.”

The horror is that this happens every single day and largely goes unreported. Men of color are falsely accused of crimes and a racist justice system locks them in cages for crimes they DID NOT COMMIT.
Three Black men were exonerated after spending nearly 30 years in prison for the 1997 killing of a Philadelphia woman, despite no physical evidence tying them to the crime. Prosecutors said the case relied on unreliable eyewitness testimony and flawed forensic findings. This is why we keep demanding truth, accountability, and justice in a system that too often steals the futures of our people. Wrongful convictions destroy families, rob generations, and can never truly be repaid.

Hegseth removed Chappie James's portrait from the Air Force Art Gallery and left the wall empty. James flew 179 combat missions across two wars. First Black four-star general in US military history. Curry passed that portrait every day for a decade. When it came down, he retired. The wall is still empty.
Sec. Hegseth’s actions continue to be despicable – and they certainly aren’t representative of the Army I served in. We’ve repeatedly seen how this White House has disparaged and mistreated both active-duty service members and the veterans who raised their hand to serve this country. I’m glad that people are continuing to stand up and speak out. theatlantic.com/magazine/202…
