“I am political,” Ms. Rachel told me of her new effort to free kids from ICE detention.
“It’s political to believe that children are worthy of love … and that our care shouldn’t stop at what we look like, our family, at our religion, at a border. Mr. Rogers was very political.”

Albert Einstein was born 147 yrs ago #BOTD
Einstein corresponded with W.E.B. Du Bois while still in Germany.
After fleeing to the U.S:
"As long as I have any choice in the matter, I shall live only in a country where civil liberty, tolerance and equality of all citizens before the law prevail."

Colin, the comrade running the shelter-in-place food program I'm working at, told me that this week he's had to turn down asks from schools to supply food directly to their sheltering families. The reason? There's not enough money coming in for that amount of food.
Let's change that.

NEW: The USPS changed its rules on how it postmarks ballots.
This may affect elections at every stage at which there's a mail deadline.
An underplayed one: VOTER REGISTRATION.
Many voters who send in their registration forms by mail could be postmarked late, missing out without realizing it.

A change in how mail is postmarked could lead some voters to miss key deadlines, including voter registration. Advocates worry the people most affected will be those already facing voting barriers.

Last night, I was notified that another person has died in ICE custody.
That’s 39 people who have died on ICE’s watch during Trump’s second term.
We cannot grow numb to this. There must be immediate oversight and accountability.

Moneta Sleet's photos should be much better know. But he worked mostly for Ebony, an African American magazine & so was ignored by taste-makers for much of his career. Just as importantly, he didn't own his archive. The magazine did, & it was a poor steward.
Feb. 14, 1926: Moneta Sleet, a longtime staff photographer for Ebony magazine who chronicled landmark moments of the civil rights movement, is born in Owensboro, Ky. His photograph of Coretta Scott King at her husband Martin Luther King’s funeral in 1968 won the Pulitzer Prize.
