You can add Minneapolis city workers to the list of “lucky duckies” that will get another three-day weekend.  I understand white employees will have the option of referring to the new holiday as Abraham Lincoln Emancipation Day.

Here’s an interesting article on the 94-year-old women who fought to make Juneteenth a national holiday.

How about the nonsense word day?

The word has been applied to any and all situations. It doesn't mean anything anymore.

It meant, in its original form, that skin color determines capabilities.

Sort of.  The pseudo-scientific racism was loosely based on natural selection and genetics. They believed northern european white men dominated the globe because they and their culture were superior. Skin color coincides.

The white people had to learn how to stay alive in winter. That's not nothing.

Speaking of cultural appropriation, I came across a HuffPost  article entitled "Beyond McMindfulness."

This is Tricycle quality material by an actual ordained Zen teacher, though written with a general audience in mind.

I agree with the conclusion. On balance, the mindfulness fad is not a terrible thing.

Still, traditional  Buddhism teaches three kinds of meditative disciplines (cultivation, mindfulness,  and concentration) with two applications (calming and insight).

Secular mindfulness exploits one part, albeit an important and useful part.

This is something Judge Judy would do even if he wasn't drunk

https://m.jpost.com/diaspora/antisemitism/austrian-soldier-imprisoned-for-showing-photos-of-testicle-swastika-tattoo-671688

An Austrian soldier who posted online pictures of a swastika tattoo on one of his testicles was sentenced to 19 months in prison.

***
The soldier said he had been very drunk when he got the tattoo earlier this year, the Kleine Zeitung newspaper reported earlier this month.

https://www.thecollegefix.com/cornell-class-explores-whether-the-vast-blackness-of-the-cosmos-is-racist/

Quote
A class taught at Cornell University over the spring semester, “Black Holes: Race and the Cosmos,” examined whether the vast blackness of the cosmos and items such as black holes are racist.

“Conventional wisdom would have it that the ‘black’ in black holes has nothing to do with race. Surely there can be no connection between the cosmos and the idea of racial blackness. Can there? Contemporary Black Studies theorists, artists, fiction writers implicitly and explicitly posit just such a connection,” the class description states.
