There’s a saying that is very popular among white supremacists and neo Nazis and other far right bigots, and that saying is this: “It’s OK to be white.” It’s a catchphrase of theirs, which tries to position people deemed “white” as an oppressed minority, which they are not, instead of an artificially created privileged class, which is what they are.

Late pic. Went to my in laws’ house only to be kept on my seat by the house cat who insists on being on my lap.

Apparently there's going to be a new Three Musketeers movie with a Black D'Artagnan, and the usual suspects are doing the usual howling about wokeness and ahistoricity and so on. So here's your regular reminder the The Three Musketeers was written by a Black man. Dumas' father was the son of an enslaved African woman and a French Marquis (not a pretty story there), and he rose to become a hero of the French Revolutionary Wars and a General-in-Chief in the French army.

This came up as a FB memory for me today. It is still one of my favorite paintings. I took a photo of soap suds in my kitchen sink. This painting resulted. I call it “Kaleidosoap “. #Acrylics

Good evening Mastodon, I've been running around all day. We did make a stop by the Sophia Sachs Butterfly House in Chesterfield, Missouri and I took some pictures. I'll post 4 now and 4 later after I've relaxed a little bit.

I hope everybody had a good Sunday! 👍🙂 Mine was non-stop.

You can draw a straight line from the Black Codes, which punished enslaved Black people who dared to read, educate themselves, and challenge the notion that they were inferior, to Desantis and the GOP's crusade to erase Black history, and prevent Black people from gaining access to educational and employment opportunities.

Esther Crawford, who proudly slept in the Twitter office to meet some arbitrary deadline Elon made up, has apparently been fired. I hope that some day people will understand that killing yourself for your employer is pointless.

I emailed all my students to go outside and look. I'm going to bundle back up and stare at the sky some more!
