the republican senator from arkansas tweeted this praise of jackie robinson's legacy this week, but it was curious to see the senator's tweet because this is the same tom cotton who introduced legislation to ban the teaching of critical race theory in schools, something, by the way, that's actually not taught in public schools, but nonetheless that didn't stop him. now, he has fought tooth and nail along with a growing number of republicans to eliminate discussions of race in our schools. so let's call a spade a spade here. tom cotton didn't want to celebrate the real jackie robinson, the man with a complex past, the man who was court marshalled by the u.s. army after refusing to give up his seat to a white officer. that kind of history is what tom cotton wants to hide from the world. he just wanted some likes and retweets and decided to use the legacy of a historic black man to get them. coming up, my conversation with the french artist j.r. how he's working to honor the resell yensy of ukrainians. that's next.
