Why do I teach the difference between a Law (*what* will happen) and a Theory (*why* it happens)? Why do I spend a few minutes every year assuring students that Theories are just as "proven" and "true" as Laws? To inoculate them from the persistent bullshit of "that's just a theory" they will face.
Ok bell's gonna ring in 10 seconds, and I have to go teach about the history of the concept of the atom. Today's first question: What's the difference between a Law and a Theory?
(Before you answer, I assure you it's NOT how "true" or "proven" they are.)

We need to call this what it is: LYNCHING. Ten Black Americans in less than two years.
Every one of these deaths deserves answers, transparency, and scrutiny. No one should look at these images and expect Black Americans to shrug this off, especially in light of our history.

I'd say about 80% of America's current problems stem from the warnings of Black people not being heeded historically.

Because this country likes to forget what it’s capable of, I take it as a duty to remind us.
We sit at the brink of the largest decimation of Black political power since the fall of Reconstruction — a Second Redemption. And the end of Black political power means the end of democracy itself.

Jeanne Gibson, beloved “Rosie the Riveter,” passed away on July 29, 2026 at 100. Gibson became a welder at Todd Pacific Shipyards in Seattle, helping build destroyers for the Allied war effort during WWII.
Gibson helped pave the way for millions of women who stepped into critical wartime roles.

I was glad to meet with leaders from the Florence Project.
Their team is a lifeline for immigrants facing detention and deportation in AZ, and they’ve been a close partner as I’ve conducted Congressional oversight at ICE detention facilities across the state.

But they’ve become easy scapegoats for the conservative moment, which vilifies them and threatens to criminalize their very existence.
