    This, and many incidents like it, are a direct consequence of anti-Islamic bigotry being allowed to go unchallenged on the internet. Do your part.

    Dr. King “was not the cuddly creature we re-invent every King Day to lie to ourselves and our kids.” Dr. King’s life and death are a reminder of how hard oppressors fight you once your reach is beyond their control. Must-read 👇🏽

    Martin Luther King Jr. saw racial injustice, economic injustice and war as three of the world’s great evils. He believed everyone needed fair wages and stable housing to have a real chance at the American Dream. May we always fight to carry out Dr. King’s legacy of radical love.

    Total NYT paid subscribers: ~4.7m as of August 2019. Total calls made by the Bernie campaign in January 2020: ~5.4m as of tonight. I’ll take the opinion of the everyday working people on the line, every time. Stay focused. We’re winning.
