Good Morning. I hope that you are enjoying this weekend, fully vaccinated and boosted, with family and friends.
"Negro Heroes" (1947) was the first comic book series devoted to showing real life Black Americans in a positive light, while "Jackie Robinson" (1949) & "The Amazing Willie Mays" (1954) were the earliest to feature a Black American as the title star. #BlackHistoryMonth pic.twitter.com/jf0apeX8JO

All these “Why the west is responsible for Putin being an insecure tinpot dictator” takes are desperate attempts to stay relevant in a world that pretty much overnight collapsed their house of cards and crashed their gravy trains.

I’m curious: what exactly do you think makes this Zelensky video such effective political communication? I have my theories but I’m curious about yours.

Most people don’t see what this kind of courage looks like. They see histrionics from folks who aren’t actually oppressed all the time.
But Zelensky, who looks mad regular, is like, “pull up then, n—.” With Ukrainian Wu Tang Clan around him. Scrappy af. Gotta respect that.

Your actions matter. Your voice can be decisive to strengthen Western resolve and protect the security of Ukraine, Europe and the entire free and democratic world from a new revanchist force in Europe. Act NOW!

You can help. Please support Ukraine by urging your governments to act:
1. Call your MP to urge strong economic sanctions: banning Russia from SWIFT, fully isolating it, stopping all business, oil and gas embargo, providing Ukraine with more defensive weapons, ammunition, money

Rejecting US evacuation offer, #Ukraine’s leader #Zelensky says: I need anti-tank ammo, ‘not a ride’. https://t.co/CuYqS4Q9YT
