Bitch Anarchy

Crimes against the disabled have been rising, and disability advocates are wondering what can be done about it. My aunt, mother, and I are members of the disabled community – my aunt is wheelchair-bound, while my mother and I are not visibly disabled – and it terrifies me to think that one of us might…

Conservatives, who claim to be such traditionalists, lovers of home & hearth, defenders of family life and Christian values, are the biggest hypocrites on the planet. At least the Muslim terrorists are true to their beliefs, unlike the homegrown redneck terrorists of the Republican party. Read the Koran and you will know of what I…

Republicans stand for White supremacy, voter suppression, keeping women barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen, domination over people of color, and death, death, death. All you need to do is watch any right-wing news to learn what those people are truly about. They are everywhere – even former left-leaning news outlets and non-partisan media are…

Gun violence is an extreme problem here in the United States but the Republicans, Libertarians, and even moderate Democrats don’t want to do anything about it. They whine about the holy (unholy) 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution – a well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people…

You might be surprised to learn that the first Thanksgiving – though then it wasn’t known as such – was not a big happy feast with Whites and Natives sitting around an enormous table laden with all kinds of delicious food including a centerpiece of large, succulent turkey. In fact, the only Indigenous people there…

A study done several years ago revealed that 75% of White Americans have only White friends. It is no doubt still closer to that figure today than not, as I see this time and again that most people truly do form close relationships with those of their own ethnicity – despite the diversity within friend…

FADE IN:EXT. HILLY COUNTRYSIDE – NIGHTWoods, a few cabins here and there. No one is about. Coyotes howl in the distance. A woman’s voice:VOICE OVERThere’s not a day goes by that I don’t think about that year. Sometimes it feels like onlyyesterday. Other times, it seems like it happened so long that maybe I dreamed…

Sunday afternoon – 21 November – a red SUV plowed into a Christmas parade in the small town of Waukesha, Wisconsin, injuring dozens and killing at least five people so far. Most conservative news outlets are claiming that this attack was done in retaliation for the acquittal of double murderer Kyle Rittenhouse on Friday in Kenosha,…
