Jon   Stewart
“I love a good argument. I love differing points of view in all facets of things. I also love grace. I've got people in my family that are to the right of Attila the Hun. When people tell me, like, "How can you platform that person on your show?" I go, "I platform my uncle every fucking Thanksgiving."

By the way, I love him. He's a three-dimensional human being who has qualities that I really admire, things about him. We've lost that. We've lost the ability to love people because we litmus test at every point in every single moment.”
Jon Stewart

“But for all of Whitman’s celebration of the many peoples in the United States, the demand of poorer white men for inclusion in the government was based on the idea of keeping other marginalized people out. States’ rights democracy kept white men in charge, for they were the voters who determined the shape of the state governments. Those white men advanced their own interests at the expense of their Brown and Black neighbors, declaring it the nation’s “Manifest Destiny” to push Indigenous Americans off their lands and take over parts of Mexico to establish plantations and plantation slavery there. Above all, they protected and extended the practice of human enslavement that people like Elizabeth Freeman had successfully challenged seventy years before.”
Heather Cox Richardson, Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America

“That openness meant those opposing the liberal consensus seemed out of step, people who would be left behind. The Archie Bunker types seemed to be a dying breed, and modern Americans could afford to be charitable toward them, just as they had been toward the Confederates whose ideology the modern Archie Bunkers shared.”
Heather Cox Richardson, Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America

“Everything comes at a cost. Just what are you willing to pay for it?”
Serena Williams

“The KKK adopted a highway. Joke's on them - it's black.”
