The danger of white supremacy is clear and circular. - @austinchanning
The Idaho stop legislates what all cyclists already do safely. Without it, cops can use minor cycling violations to conduct racially biased pretext stops (biking while Black) and reach their quotas. In NYC, the fine for biking and driving through a red light is the same: $190.
Indigeneity is often erased in the immigrant narrative of the US. Displaced Indigenous migrant communities in the United States have historically been undercounted in the Census due to many being classified under Hispanic/Latino. This is a problem for communities whose first or most used language is not Spanish or English, but Zapotec, Chinantec, K’iché or any of the various Indigenous languages that can be heard in the streets of Los Angeles and across the country.

Unelected lifelong partisan appointees is no basis for a system of government. May we all question the legitimacy of a court so clearly without a mandate from the people.
Workers of the world unite!
A clandestine network of railway workers, hackers and dissident security forces have wreaked havoc on Russian supply lines since February, and helped thwart Russia’s attack on Kyiv.
Hawaiʻi is still largely owned by the sugar barons who built their plantation's on stolen Hawaiian land in the 1840s, and who, by the 1890s, convinced the U.S. to overthrow the Hawaiian government.
This Ugahxpa (Quapaw) hide robe, circa 1740, depicts the routes followed by Ugahxpa warriors through 3 major Ugahxpa villages on the Nížítte (Arkansas River). It's among the oldest Indigenous painted maps still in existence. It's now kept at the Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac in Paris.
