Most Olympic traditions started at the 1936 Berlin Olympics

including the torch relay and lighting. So the opening is just really a Nazi ceremony.

Kamala Harris gives campaign accounts new life in fight against Trump

Kamala Harris gives campaign accounts new life in fight against Trump
The former VP is partnering with People For the American Way to repurpose her dormant TikTok and X accounts, which retain millions of followers from the 2024 race.

The brains behind Kamala Harris’ 2024 social-media machine are staging a second act.

Harris’s campaign pages on TikTok and X, which have remained inactive since her November defeat to Donald Trump, are being transformed into a progressive advocacy tool through a partnership with People For the American Way. The rebranded accounts, now called “Headquarters,” retain the millions of followers accumulated during the campaign.

Vice President Harris and People For the American Way revealed the new venture Thursday, describing it as an effort “to funnel young people into both online and offline action for progressive values.”

The former vice president will serve as honorary chair emerita of Headquarters but will not have editorial control over content, according to the announcement. Her senior adviser Kirsten Allen will join the organization’s board of directors.

In 'Black and Jewish America,' Henry Louis Gates Jr explores the history of Black-Jewish partnership and conflict

In ‘Black and Jewish America,’ Henry Louis Gates Jr explores the history of Black-Jewish partnership and conflict
A new PBS series on Black and Jewish relations shows the promise and peril of allyship
By Olivia Haynie

The new PBS series Black and Jewish America: An Interwoven History is not the first piece of media to investigate the relationship between the two communities. But what’s unique about the program, narrated by scholar and Finding Your Roots host Henry Louis Gates Jr., is that it doesn’t shy away from the historic complexities of this partnership — and the many times it almost fell apart.

Alarmed by the recent rise in white supremacist hate crimes, Gates reconnected with Paul Bertelsen and Sara Wolitzky, who had worked on some of his past projects and are co-directors and co-producers of the series.

“I think we all felt collectively the same kind of revulsion at this rise of white supremacist hate,” Bertelsen, who was a producer on Gates’ Peabody Award-winning series The African Americans: Many Rivers to Cross, told me over Zoom. “The hoods came off, you know, and so we all, as storytellers and historians, grew concerned, and found this to be a great opportunity to kind of show the importance of shared experience and coalition building.”
...
The first episode of Black and Jewish America: An Interwoven History premieres on PBS on Tuesday, February 3rd at 9pm EST. On Feb. 5, Henry Louis Gates Jr., the filmmakers, and Sen. Corey Booker will discuss the series at 92NY.
