UnFuck America

This was then, Michael Brown/ Ferguson. I posted these pictures in October 2014. Six long years ago and nothing has changed. Today it is George Floyd 2020.

No man is free until all men are free.

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.
