“It was clear from day one that a Trump presidency would be authoritarian, bigoted, serially dishonest, outside the bounds of any previous modern presidency. It was clear that we shouldn’t normalize him. But we did.” @mehdirhasan calls out the media's complicity... and whiteness.

Two minutes. Just give @KarenAttiah two minutes to parse the media's responsibility for the Trump catastrophe, and how many of us in the industry have misunderstood and underestimated "how white violence in this country has shaped the country as we know it."

Documented Dreamers were brought as young children and have lived in the U.S. for over 14 years. They still #CantDream. They feel tremendous pain and pressure . Their parents and sibling cries everyday. It is time to #ImproveTheDream for #AllChildren.

This was to be expected though. In red state curriculums, the Louisiana Purchase is treated as a simple transaction between France and TJ. No mention of native nations’ abject non- sovereignty. If such basic aspects of the nation’s evolution are overlooked, the plot is lost.

Yes clear to me as well so the media is compromised.

I’ve written 100 poems about trump, this from 2016 is my favourite. In it I wrote these lines.. “When he gave US his bio we thought it was fake, no matter how often he read us The Snake” “They said it would end when he was the man He’d be more presidential than when he ran”
