#Nebraska
Today in Labor History September 28, 1919: Thousands of whites rampaged through Omaha, Nebraska, setting fire to the Courthouse, lynching Will Brown, a black civilian, and attempting to hang the reformist mayor. 2 whites died. It followed more than 20 race riots across the U.S. that summer. Several years earlier, ethnic Irish rioters drove the entire Greek community from Omaha. The African-American population of Omaha had doubled from 1910-1919. Many had been recruited to work as strike breakers in the stockyards, exacerbating the racism of white workers in town. Then a white woman falsely accused a black man of raping her. Will Brown was arrested, but the woman was unable to positively ID him. But the racist crowd didn’t buy it and lynched him anyway.

Local #Nebraska fire departments are asking people to be cautious as fall conditions could help spark #wildfires. Last year was the second-worst fire season in Nebraska’s recorded history. 🔥 🚒

“But now conservative politicians in states such as Texas and #Louisiana as well as a devoutly #catholic husband who tried to halt his wife’s divorce efforts in #Nebraska are attacking no-fault divorce.
One of the more alarming steps came from the #texas Republican Party, whose 2022 platform called on the legislature to “rescind unilateral #nofaultdivorce laws and support covenant marriage.”
Growing up in Nebraska, we had a local supermarket called "Hinky Dinky" and the name was the most spectacular thing about the experience. Everything else was rather dull.
When I asked Midjourney to give me the Hinky Dinky of my childhood, this was the result. Not close to the original, but better -- and that's the real power of AI. You can enhance memory with false verification that places trauma in a manageable grave.
I had the pleasure of doing some work for the Department of Education's School Safety team earlier this year. This job is a wonderful opportunity for someone who has a passion for school safety and who wants to connect with educators all across #Nebraska. #LNK https://www.governmentjobs.com/careers/nebraska/jobs/4215296/school-safety-grants-specialist-program-specialist-ii

"Failing to pass funding bills that keep our federal government functioning isn’t just rhetoric — it puts the health and well-being of thousands of Nebraskans at risk. Congress should rally the long-standing bipartisan support of health centers to move this critical funding forward."

"In case you missed this story: a Nebraska mother was sentenced to two years in prison for providing abortion pills to her pregnant daughter. … This is the new America our Supreme Court has forced upon us, one in which Republican politicians loom over women in every aspect of their lives."

A mother in #Nebraska has been sentenced to 2 years in prison for providing #abortion pills to her 17 year old daughter. The daughter, now 19, has been sentenced to 90 days in jail and 2 years parole. It seems to me that providing her with a birth control implant would be more effective than parole, the threat of recidivism is nil. https://www.kmov.com/2023/09/22/mother-sentenced-giving-abortion-pills-pregnant-daughter-nebraska/

The top story in #theAtlantic is (yet again) Evangelical Christianity giving itself advice on how to reverse its decline.
The author writes from Lincoln, #Nebraska. My hometown, where the big news is that the son of the head pastor of a major conservative church (Christ Lincoln) posed as a teenager (he is 26) so he could attend highschool and have access to underage girls. He falsified a birth certificate and medical records to enroll.
