What Republicans Are Planning for Our Kids

Just in case you weren’t sure what’s about to happen in this country, here’s a couple of previews.

African-American students are getting this shit texted to them:


And women are being reminded of what conservatives think of them and their opinions.

As a reminder, eggs aren’t gonna get cheaper and gas prices are a market thing. You made this country worse just to hurt people. You will be reminded of that to your dying day.

The One Sin White Evangelicals Couldn’t Forgive Barack Obama For

It was an instant classic when written and relevant since the Obamas took the big stage last night.

Racism, and the embrace of hatred, endorsed by nearly all Christian denominations in this country since the 1980s is why I don’t go to church anymore. Trump just doubled down on it and is successful in getting Christians to agree to the worst possible things.

Washington man fatally shoots 17-year-old who had BB gun, says he ‘had a duty to act’

In short, Washington racist with a history of violence shoots a brown kid seven times because he has been conditioned to believe he should.

Every time I think I am mellowing and becoming more of a pacifist, I see something like this and think, huh, so *that’s* why we still have a death penalty. They better throw the whole book at this psycho.

Superintendent gets restraining order against dad who pushed him off stage so he couldn’t shake daughter’s hand

Baraboo, WI had another racist incident again. Some buckra parent decided to rush the stage at his daughter’s graduation and shove the black superintendent out of the way before he could shake said daughter’s hand.

Yep, he interrupted his daughter’s ceremony to ensure her lily white skin didn’t touch a black man.

I *KNOW* who he’s voting for this year. And he WILL be voting because he’s not being charged with felony assault like he should be.

But he at least has (probably) been fired.

Louisiana court says mostly white enclave in Baton Rouge may secede and form its own city

White supremacy always exists to keep resources away from the folks who don’t fit their criteria. Indeed, if someone isn’t getting hurt by their actions, are they really even doing it right?

In what is now a prosperous suburb of Baton Rouge, the racists are proud of their new city, and are striving to separate themselves from the community school system. Separate and unequal.

But it isn’t just the South. Here in Minnesota, folks trying to build a BIPOC nature center and running into resistance from white neighbors worried about “noise” and disrupting their “way of life”. You know, because every nature center I have ever been too has been as insane as Burning Man, right?

Code words and outright blatant separatism when allowed.

Hinckley-Finlayson district wrong to bar Ojibwe song at graduation ceremony

So…you can likely invite a preacher to most school functions.

You can have the Pledge of Allegiance, which has included religious reference since the 1950s to start the school day or at most events. I mean, *I* don’t include it – I was raised right – but the indoctrination is in there for the past few generations.

But don’t you dare include a native ceremony into a graduating class celebration that is 1/3rd native.
