    Really wild stuff downtown. A Stop Asian Hate rally is clashing with a Pro-Uighur drive by. The pro-Uighur group is shouting “F— China!” The Asian rally is responding by calling them “racist.”

    They’re asking for a $30 minimum wage. “Why not?” The lead protester says.

    Explosive exchange: @tedlieu yells at Peter Kirsanow when he mentions that one of the foremost examples of anti-Asian discrimination right now is at Harvard. This was during a hearing about the need for diversity on the federal courts.

    Here’s the intersection where the burned out husk of the Third Police Precinct in Minneapolis is located. It was the center of the rioting in June. Three months later, and not a single business on this corner is open — most are reduced to rubble.

    The guy who announced yesterday that he will tear down the Emancipation Memorial on Thursday is a Harvard student. Here is a picture of him standing next to the school's founder, an institution which has long been controversial for its ties to slavery.
