Since the pandemic, billionaires have captured $1.7 million for every $1 the bottom 90% of the world population gained in newly created global wealth. So about that revolution…
It’s wild that there’s hardly any documentaries, movies, school lessons etc about John Brown. They want white kids to learn #history and not feel like all white people sucked, then start teaching them about the (few but nonetheless very real) ones that didn’t
Biggest endorsement for the value of higher education, I have seen in recent times

Sonya Massey was somebody. She was treated like nothing by the officers who shot her after she called them for help. Sonya should still be alive today. We say ‘Black lives matter’ because it’s clear that to many, our lives don’t matter. Sonya mattered. We matter.
