…well discerned & historically attributed; his essay educates with precision & humility.

A colleague at Stanford’s business school used The Stanford Daily to argue—poorly—against DEI. The piece was riddled with historical errors and left one searching for fact, so I broke my public writing hiatus to respond. I hope you’ll read and share the piece. stanforddaily.com/2025/04/22/w...

Listen to Black women… “The attacks are not random. They seem designed to intimidate those of us who serve in this critical capacity” “The threats & harassment are attacks on our democracy, on our system of government. And they ultimately risk undermining our Constitution & the rule of law” - KBJ

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Hosting a story salon with wonderful friends today!! …We gather for breakfast treats and respond to a thematic question. Today’s thematic question is: “what experience in your life has inspired you to champion the truth?”

@timmiller.bsky.social and jumped on camera last night to run through some of the best clips of Republicans saying that going after organizations’ tax status because of politics was the end of democracy. Which is exactly what they’re currently doing to Harvard…

To all lovers of democratic liberty & how honoring the law secures it: what he says is volcanically massively vital. Scary fragile cliff = domino effect of executive abuse of power + defiance of Supreme Court in context of Mr. Garcia. Thanks for asserting this @chrismurphyct.bsky.social.

Chris Murphy@chrismurphyct.bsky.social

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
