It’s not enough that they be fired. We want them arrested and prosecuted for what they did. What part of this do they not understand? https://twitter.com/abc/status/1274015004472365057

Imagine Harry Potter saying some fuccboi shit and the Death Eaters in charge of the Ministry of Magic used that to strip away the rights of vulnerable populations in the magical community.
That's what Rowling has done here. She is aiding the side of the oppressor

There's been a lot of pushback on folks saying "It's not my job to educate you" or directing folks to Google for questions about the history of racism in this country.
But folks, THIS IS WHY. I know I've wasted so much time with assholes like this acting in bad faith.

Defund the police, defend Black communities! This #Juneteenth, it’s more important than ever that we dismantle the racist and ineffective model of American policing. Learn more about how defunding the police works and why we so desperately need it: https://benjerrys.co/37EUU4C

There's SO MUCH about Black American history that even those of us in the community are never taught.
I didn't know about Tulsa until maybe six years ago? I only heard about Rosewood last year.
Henrietta Lacks, the Tuskegee experiment -- all after I left school.
True story: I went to majority-black public schools in Baltimore my entire life. We sung the Black National Anthem at my middle school every morning.
But I learned about Juneteenth through an episode of @blackishabc@twitter.com only *three years ago*

just letting you know it's okay if you weren't really hip to juneteenth until very recently. you're not alone, no matter what your timeline tells you.

Never forget that Juneteenth is not the day enslaved people were emancipated but the day when formerly enslaved people in Texas finally learned about emancipation a full two-and-a-half years after the proclamation. The slavists kept them working for free the whole time.

I’ve been seeing a lot about “anti-racism burnout” lately... which... is a conversation I’m too angry & sad to have.
But I’ve ALSO seen a lot of “fixed comfort” floating around. I’d encourage you all to look at the language you’re using to talk about the world today. We see you.
