Shaun King made all his social media accounts private.

🤔🤔🤔
Black women have been on his head steadily, and it feels like this might be the time they get him out of the paint for good.
Like, we have seen him get called out before, but like @TonjaStidhum just said to me, this time feels different.
This is wild

So in this instance, kids, your favorite TV mom is loud and wrong. There was no miscarriage of justice, and Cosby is being released on a technicality. I will explain it all in this thread.
Bill Cosby admitted to everything he was criminally convicted of in a civil deposition. His victim sued him, and in his deposition, he admitted to drugging her and sexually assaulting her. He did this because he believed that this evidence would not be used against him.
The prosecutor at the time told him he would not be prosecuted. But years later, a new prosecutor picked up the case and decided to follow through on prosecution using the statements that Cosby made during the civil deposition.

So my auntie said she was going to fry me and my uncle some fish. They live off Flores and Normandie, so we went to the Ralphs on Western and Manchester to get some more fish.

Nigga.
Because it's the hood, they make you go to the cash register in the front to pay for your stuff from the meat department first, and then the cashier goes back to the meat counter to get it for you.
You can tell I live in the white neighborhood, because I was fucking APPALLED. Do you hear me?

Imagine making Juneteenth a federal holiday when laws are being enacted all over the country that will prevent people from being taught why it's a holiday.
What Black people have experienced in America isn't so much progress as it is gaslighting with a side of placating.
We keep being told that America isn't racist as America continues to do things that prove it is indeed racist, and when we speak out, we get Juneteenth as a federal holiday at the same time many states are making illegal to talk about how racist America is.

I want to go on a quick solo trip next weekend and explore a city. Should I go to Seattle or San Francisco? Please tell me why, if you care to.
Seattle might be winning because of the weather forecast.
All the rooms on Expedia are giving me various names for areas of town, and I need to know which is the best area for a tourist without a car.

So, based on the current testimony, the owner/manager of the store escalated the issue with the alleged fake $20 bill to the police. The young store clerk, a young black man, had offered to just pay for the purchase out of his own pocket. His boss refused.

Now we here.
I'm pointing this out to make another point: People often weaponize the police against Black folks simply to make a point or put us in our "place."
The clerk testified that the rule in the store is if they take a fake bill, they are responsible for it and have to pay out of their own pocket if it happens.

The boss sent them out of the store twice to try and get Floyd and his friend to come back in.
