Among the many things Grandma Kitty shared with Steph Curry tonight after the game at Barclays, one of my faves is a Mother’s Day card she received from her family. It read: “Happy Mother’s Day mom. Thank you for teaching us to love God, each other, and Steph Curry.” Enjoy!

Black people aren’t working class people? This is one of many reasons why I can’t with him. He means a very specific demographic when talking about the working class.
It should come as no great surprise that a Democratic Party which has abandoned working class people would find that the working class has abandoned them. While the Democratic leadership defends the status quo, the American people are angry and want change. And they’re right.

The WNBA players want to be an inclusive org. That may be hard to understand if you’ve never been a part of a marginalized group. There seems to be some expectation that these players should accept problematic behavior in the name of growth. How about no?
WNBA needs to decide if they want to be a non profit activist organization or if they want to be a league. The frustrating part about all this is that while the players have a lot of valid points to make, this makes it seem like they want total impunity.
