Netflix’s “One Day at a Time” Is the Revolutionary, Feminist Latinx Family Sitcom We Didn’t Know We Needed

One Day at a Time is so revolutionary in its depictions of what a family might actually look like in America. It’s got the same recipe of an old school family sitcom but turns the norm on its head because it centers the family’s brownness and provides ample social commentary to deliver a fantastic modern-day sitcom.

Republicans Forge Ahead with ACA Repeal, Promise to Definitely Figure Out Replacement Later

Republicans haven’t been able to figure out what they think should replace the Affordable Care Act since it was introduced in 2010, and repealing it now will leave millions of Americans uninsured, but they’re not letting that stop them!
