Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !

Not ready to talk about Black History. Still talking about white US history.

Q: Why are Black neighborhoods so often high crime neighborhoods? Must be a lawless people! Violent! Thieves! Predators!

A: There is no such thing as a "high crime neighborhood." The whole concept is entirely made up based on our notion of what we consider a crime.

You may be thinking:🤔 Wait... What?! Not true! A high crime neighborhood has more drug use and sales, theft, and even murder!

My colleague, @reiver, pioneered native video for the web.

Prior to his efforts, if you wanted to watch video, you had to install proprietary Flash. Thank God those days are over!

@reiver advocated hard for a <video> tag. Now web browsers natively support it.

Today, the W3C acknowledges his work.
