I hope the next big announcement Biden makes will center on race. His early pronouncements signal priorities and now that he’s talked about Covid and the economy, issues of racial inequality should be next. If ever there was an area where small steps is not enough, it’s this one.

The Washington Post video of black Capitol workers cleaning up the mess was very sad

Clean air & water. We have one planet to live on. The others so far do not support human life and the biodiversity of our planet. We need to learn to coexist with nature not sabotage it.

He won’t even address UBI and walked back his $2k promise to GA, and won’t discuss M4A during a pandemic. You think he’s gonna discuss race?!

To address racism is to pull back the curtain on what MAGA really means. It is the ugly truth about American society and politics, which is pretty obvious to us mortals who don't live in USA, but is wrapped up in patriotism & the Flag for many Americans. eand.co/trump-told-three-big…

Yes! His earlier statement saying whites would be last to get the vaccine wasn't enough!

Are you trying to stir up nasty comments about Biden again?! Cause those are the comments I’m reading

But nothing’s going to change with police brutality and other discrimination until we address the fact that most whites think blacks are physically stronger and more agile than white people are. That’s a big part of why police overreact, and pull their guns faster with blacks.

He's already made an announcement on race--if you're white and a small business owner, don't expect any Covid assistance from the feds.

It needs to include some kind of #BasicIncome or it will fall flat. #TakeCareOfThePeople or play head games and do little. It's the game politicians like to play and we are catching on. We want to be empowered, not played with.
