The best description of the situation is also the link to do something about it, which is to sign a petition:

An excellent statement by @sethmoulton on "our moral and operational failure" in Afghanistan. And a moving final two paragraphs addressed to our Afghanistan veterans and families.

The #KKK is a white supremacist terror org that has caused over 100 years of pain and suffering.
It's unconscionable not to teach students about the hate & violence fomented by the KKK because it's a fact and we can’t let history repeat itself. huffpost.com/entry/texas-sen…

Everybody has to join with Jewish people everywhere to stop anyone who is committing antisemitic acts now!
21 May 2021
From coast to coast in the US, we are witnessing a dangerous and drastic surge in anti-Jewish hate right now.
Thank you @CNN and @KateBolduan for allowing me on to discuss these disturbing times.
This type of blatant and in some cases, violent #antisemitism should alarm everyone.

The Oscar-nominated short film #TwoDistantStrangers is about one man's never-ending confrontations with the same deadly series of events.
@Jerickaduncan sat down with the film's creators @Travon and @martinroe about how it captures a critical moment in this nation's history.

Two Distant Strangers: a provocative look at being black in America. I hope it gets nominated for an Oscar for Best Live Short.

So proud of this movie! Thank you @NetflixFilm for pushing this out!
A community of predominantly Black artists were brought together by directors Arnon Manor and Timothy Ware-Hill to deploy their unique animation styles in interpreting Ware-Hill’s poetic response to the murder of Ahmaud Arbery. The result is Cops & Robbers
