Too much: “GO OUT AND VOTE! THE FUTURE IS AT STAKE! DON’T BE DUMB!” And not enough: “Gee, there are a LOT of barriers to voting. What can we do about that?”

I know the personal is political. But stop asking me if, bc I’m a feminist, I think women should pay for dates/split bills, etc. Feminism is questioning the state & ending systems of domination/oppression. I don’t care who pays for dates. People are dying. Stop wasting my time.

My heart aches for Oluwatoyin Salau. Her death, like many Black women’s, happened at the intersection of racist misogyny, colorism, and patriarchy. We have to dismantle these systems. This is how we honor her and fight for all survivors #JusticeForToyin #JusticeForOluwatoyin

Black people are more likely to die in traffic accidents. Covid made it worse.

More Black people died in traffic deaths in 2020 than any other racial group even though Americans drove less in the pandemic. Experts say this is not new.
