  1. If you listen closely to the way RFK talks about "autism," it's clear he doesn't understand the spectrum in the slightest.

    When he is confidently asserting that anyone with autism won't "write a poem" or "drive a car," it's because he has only a single, simple, anachronistic conception of autism.

  2. 70 years ago today, Emmett Till’s bright young life was brutally cut short in an act of racist hate and violence.

    I’m remembering him and his mother Mamie Till-Mobley today. May God bless their memory. We must continue our fight to end racism and hate in every form.

  3. Gun violence spares no one. Not even children who are praying in their sanctuary, their sacred place of worship.

  4. I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees.

    No refugee underfunded a school.

    No refugee closed a hospital.

    No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled.

    We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
