To summarize: We are in the midst of a pandemic. GOP wants to hold elections anyway. Black ppl are dying at disproportionately higher rates from this virus. Milwaukee has the highest pop of Black ppl in the state. Milwaukee went from 180 polling sites to 5. Let that all sink in.

Ruby Bridges is only 66 years old. Was the first Black student to integrate an elementary school in the South. Another reminder that this history was not long ago at all.

Happy birthday to Ruby Bridges, who desegregated William Frantz Elementary School in New Orleans at age 6 in 1960. She inspired this Norman Rockwell painting, “The Problem We All Live With.”

Shout out to all the teachers who've had just a few days to transform their entire syllabus into something that works online. And shout out to all the teachers who've been accommodating & advocating for students who don't have access to the internet at home. We appreciate yall.

I keep thinking about how his four-year-old daughter was in the car. She watched her father murdered then she watched her country do nothing
