(42,019 posts)The Twitter call outs and GoDaddy action along with specific rejections coming in today by those who know they have a lot to lose by supporting them has heartened me. They are deeply dependent on being able to ramp one another up without actually having to do anything. Don't engage in the street and leave them without the resources to talk to one another.

Even when there aren't white supremacists holding a hate-fest, racism touches all aspects of life in America.
It doesn't go away just because the loudest elements of hate go into hiding.
We have to act against it when it's loud, and when it's quietly harming the lives of others. Especially when it's quietly doing harm.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
