When is @WaffleHouse going to close for anti-bias training? At this rate they'll need to close for several months to address this issue.

2. It was a to-go order
3. They disputed a $1.50 charge on the receipt
4. Waffle House called the police – who arrested them. pic.twitter.com/PLXog5WDTO

An article came out in @TheLancet today that is flying under the radar but is absolutely critical to read.

It provides rare CAUSAL evidence showing structural racism causes poor health outcomes for black Americans.

This is ethnic cleansing. Antwon Rose was only 17 and he's at least the fifth Woodland Hills student murdered in the past two school years. Antwon's only crime was being Black and terrified. https://t.co/637pFIQSj5
