Wall Street clearinghouse DTCC selects the Canton Network blockchain as a real-world asset tokenization partner after receiving a No-Action Letter from the SEC (Ian Allison/CoinDesk)

Nineteen-year-old Michael Donald was walking to a store in 1981
when two members of the United Klans of America abducted the Black youth,
beat him, cut his throat and hung his body from a tree on a residential street in Mobile, Alabama.
Angry that an interracial jury had failed to convict a Black man for killing a white police officer in Birmingham,
the Klansmen selected Donald at random
and lynched him to threaten the Black community.

political cartoon by de Adder. it shows a shop window full of TV sets. One in the middle is on, and it is showing a speech by the US president. He is saying "We are poised for an economic book the likes of which the world has never seen!" On the street outside is a woman and a small child, possibly homeless, transporting their belongings in a supermarket shopping cart. There is a lot a litter on the street, and a derelict car.

There's an old joke: a new barber shop in town appears across the street from the existing one, with a sign in the window reading "$5 haircuts".
A customer walks into the old shop and asks the barber how he plans to compete with such a price.
The barber simply gestures to the sign in his window: "We repair $5 haircuts".

You know, everybody on Wall Street is excited about this #bubble. 34% of the market value is in the big companies. The private ones have notional values that would make them, you know, Fortune 200 companies. ...."

Behind the cars, miscellaneous white signs. The traffic light is visible, and is green; also there is a white "walk" glyph. In the top right, a street light, also diffuse. In the top center, a curtained window glows. To the left, a H&Z market, a convenience store, glows white …
