we, within the leadership of @nabjlaofficial, have been working on the current situation unfolding between @cerisecastle & @kcrw for days.

cerise’s accounts here on Twitter and on @thelapod are representative of racism at kcrw and more broadly at most media organizations. 1\11 part of the complication of this is that i, too, am employed by @kcrw as a fill-in host – i've hosted five weeks (across two and a half years), of 'greater la' when the show’s host has been on vacation. and i’m also the incoming president of @nabjlaofficial. 2\11

Sanders supporters, I'm not trying to fight with you, I'm seeking some understanding: I hear many of you saying one version or anoyher of “the establishment is pushing Bernie out.” When you say that, who specifically do you mean? I ask because if it’s voters voting but not choosing Bernie, that’s literally how the process works.

If it’s other candidates (via endorsements of Biden) that doesn’t translate to pushing out Bernie, because only voters can do that. It's dems choosing a dem in a dem's primary.
