We are NOT resting to be more productive. We resting because we are divine and it is our divine right to do so. That’s it. Seeing so much off track analysis of what is happening here. This is what happens when you still looking to capitalism as something that can be saved.

Trump has no public events on Monday, according to the W.H. public schedule. It appears, for now, that Trump won't be taking part in any Martin Luther King Jr. Day activities.

An important new investigation from @NPRJoeShapiro. Catch the radio series this week on @NPR

Read an article swimming's race problem & found this handy little disclaimer by the author: *Please note: I am a middle class, white woman, which affects my perception of the world around me, so please feel free to let me know if I have said something wrong or need correcting.*
