So tired of this notion that people have insurance or anything else they need to live because they worked hard for it, implying of course, those who don’t have it haven’t worked hard. Try listening to Ep 4 of #1619Podcast about my Uncle Ed and stop being so damn selfish.
Again — my life’s work is to get those who say they believe in equality to actually ACT LIKE IT.
Donny Deutsch wouldn’t last a week doing the types of work my aunts and uncles have done, and yet my uncle died because he didn’t have insurance. Please get a grip on actual reality.

My dear friend @kitastew has been working on this for months. She consistently unearths stories that no one else in media sees. She is a gem, and this opening line: In New York, hope sometimes comes at the price of the sun. Wow. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
@kitastew Please click through. It is visually arresting, the people are treated with the dignity they deserve and the writing is both authoritative and compassionate.
@kitastew The end where she follows Amado to Mexico and we get to see what we so often forget: That people are so much more than their struggling immigrant experience here makes us think. 😭❤️

My driver from the airport today, of course not knowing who I am or what I am in town for, in giving a verbal tour of Springfield, casually tells me, "Of course, there are parts of town you don't want to be caught in at night."
I grew up "those parts of town," I choose to live in one of those neighborhoods that white and middle class folks were warned against, and I write about the kids who live there. So, this was my welcome to Springfield. I hope you all are ready to get this work tonight.
(Was also an interesting indicator of class assumptions that some folks put on "professional" black people.)

Nigel Farage is speaking at the Brexit Party launch now. Huge question is will they stand across the UK, or only in a handful of constituencies? That will shape the election in very different ways.
NF: "Labour are offering a choice of Remain or Remain. For 5 million Labour voters who voted Leave, this represents nothing less than a betrayal."
NF: "There are so many Labour Leave seats represented by Remain MPs. These are our top targets."

"Hello yes oh there are 35 people on this call which was scheduled on short notice and we're all waiting for <person> who is still not here."
"I'm afraid we all have to wait for <person> who may or may not call in eventually."

*several pings of people leaving*
*person calls in and is very hard to understand because person is, once more, in a car*

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

docs.google.com/document/d/1_J…

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...
