Excited to introduce a project I've been working on for a long time: a thorough comparison of Biden and Trump on the issues. "The stakes, not the odds," to borrow from Jay Rosen. The initial version has 6 topics, but I'll be adding more, as well as updating with new statements/policies. Gift link:

Where Joe Biden and Donald Trump Stand on the Issueswww.nytimes.com Here’s what President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump have done and want to do on abortion, democracy, the economy, immigration, Israel and Gaza, and Social Security and Medicare.

For me personally, having a Youtube video of content I created myself (as opposed to posting musical performance videos from church that I enjoy) get over 2000 views in fewer than 5 days is a big deal. That it was uploaded on Juneteenth and had "Juneteenth" in the title must have helped.

Black was in reality so difficult a color to dye and maintain that it was the preserve of wealth. Those scholars in black robes weren't being sober, they were showing off their wealth and position. Pilgrims in all-black were flaunting their bling. Poor people couldn't afford black.
