Last week, workers held sit-in
protests at Google's offices in both
New York and Sunnyvale, California.
The protests were organized by the group
No Tech For Apartheid, who said that 30 workers
were fired following the initial sit-in. .
According to Jane Chung, a spokeswoman for
No Tech For Apartheid, Google has now fired
"over 20" more workers, “including non-participating
bystanders during last week’s protests.”.
Google’s aims are clear:
the corporation is attempting
to quash dissent, silence
its workers, and reassert
its power over them, Jane Chung, a spokeswoman for No Tech For Apartheid, via 'The Independent'.
In its attempts to do so,
Google has decided to
unceremoniously, and
without due process,
upend the livelihoods of
over 50 of its own workers, Jane Chung, a spokeswoman for No Tech For Apartheid, via 'The Independent'.

Google has disputed the group's claims,
stressing that the company carefully found that, “every single one of those whose employment
was terminated was personally and definitively
involved in disruptive activity inside our buildings.”

How Did '4/20' Become
a Holiday for Weed?.
One common theory is that it stems
from a California criminal code for
those who distribute the drug.
According to CNN, California's 420 code is actually for obstructing entry on public land.
The state's medical marijuana
program was created from a bill
with the number 420.
Oaksterdam Cannabis Museum's Chris Conrad
says "4/20" started as a code in
Marin County, California, at San Rafael High School.
In the 1970s, a group called
"The Waldos" would get together at
4:20 PM to smoke pot.
The time of the day was convenient as it
was right after school ended with
no parental supervision just yet.
"4/20" became a code word that allowed
them to notify each other in front of
unsuspecting parents.
From there, the phrase likely
spread across the country

McCurtain County, in the southeast
part of the state, is expected to see as
many as 100,000 tourists visit the area. .
This influx of visitors has the potential
to overtax local resources and thanks
to the training and experience our
Guardsmen have working alongside
local agencies all across Oklahoma,

support our fellow Oklahomans, Lt. Col Jabonn Flurry, Commander of the
63rd Civil Support Team, via 'Newsweek'.
According to NASA, McCurtain County's city of
Idabel is predicted to be one of the 13 best spots
in the country to see the rare celestial event.
Officials across the eclipse's path of totality have
expressed concerns that public safety resources will be
stretched thin as the spectacle draws massive crowds.
Similarly, schools along the path of
totality have announced they would close
for the day, citing concerns for student safety.
In at least four states, residents have been urged to
stock up on groceries and gas ahead of the event,
as local roads are expected to be overrun with tourists.
