I’m not impressed when white people can haul ass to a Trump protest while saying ICE at airports isn’t fascism because they’re just doing their job & not being able to interact with a single one of these real life people of color they say they want to protect without a racist micro aggression.

Last night I attended the World Premiere of Seeds for Liberation in Los Angeles. Directed by @mattytheglue.bsky.social. The film documents the protests surrounding divestment of funding the genocide in Gaza, and the collective liberation movement. Please go watch & support this amazing film!!

JUST IN: A tidal wave of 30,000 students hit the streets in Charlotte, walking out to confront ICE with sheer numbers and zero hesitation. This is a generation refusing to be controlled.

Trump filed lawsuits over jokes, tweets, and news articles, but not once over any of the countless allegations of child rape. I feel like more people should mention that.

Los Angeles! Join us this Saturday 11/15 at All Power Books for the 102nd screening of “Reimagining Safety”. Being nonperishable food and toiletries donations. www.ReimaginingSafetyMovie.com

Sen Dems: OK, we'll vote to open the government if all promise to give us a vote on health-care in the future. Sen Repubs: (to each other "omg this is like taking candy from a baby") Yes deal!!! Sen Dems: You guys promise? We are trusting you Sen Repubs: Would we ever lie to you 😉

Telling states NOT TO feed people is vile.

🚨FLOTILLA UPDATE They are now only 50-60 nautical miles from Gaza. Most boats are still sailing, around 35 vessels At least two boats have been told to stop or be attacked with water cannons. Both (All In and Meteque) have refused and carried on sailing. 1/2

Above all, the flotilla has proven that ordinary people — doctors, fishermen, students, journalists, lawyers, clergymen, and retirees from 44 countries — can not only unite around a sense of moral outrage, but also take matters into their own hands to do something about it.

TONIGHT! Gov Shutdown Trump & Hegseth BERATE military generals Brutal ICE attacks on journalists, protesters Dems write stern tweets Israel INTERCEPTS Flotilla @mattytheglue.bsky.social joins to discuss his doc “REIMAGINING SAFETY” - invest in care, not cops www.youtube.com/live/4qbe_ui...

Poor people in the United States are a primary target for policing, especially those forced to live on the streets. Data shows that more than 40% of unhoused people booked into jail were booked again within the year.

We aren’t talking enough about how the ATF failed to recognize that the marking on a bullet was just a headstamp (basic ammo ID) not a “trans symbol,” that someone leaked that misinfo to right wing extremist Steven Crowder, and that the WSJ reprinted it as fact. Total clown shoes

newsom has made the calculation that he can win without the support of trans folks, homeless people, and their allies. that’s his prerogative. he’s free to try. but i don’t think it’s fair to get mad at those communities for a choice *he* made. he’s the one who decided he doesn’t want their vote!

Floridians! Join us Friday night in Miami and Saturday afternoon in Broward for screenings of “Reimagining Safety” hosted by Florida Rising!

Raza Unida National Chairperson, Ernesto Ayala has been kidnapped while working to keep community members safe. He is currently being held at MDC (Los Angeles). You can support by calling 213-485-0439 ext. 5123 and demand his release. #FreeErnesto

This isn't immigration control, it's genocide.

lol the @latimes.com can’t compete with @lataco.bsky.social. It’s not even close… we’ve known this but the moment really lays bare the media landscape.

Join us in Santa Cruz CA for the next “Reimagining Safety” screening and community event! 6/28 at 7pm. The Tannery Arts Center. Film starts at Sunset.

🚨🚨🚨KERN COUNTY PEEPS ANTI-ICE MUTUAL AID🚨🚨🚨 Hi everybody, for my people back home in Kern County, the org Building Healthy Communities is distributing food to families who are afraid to leave the house right now. Pick up in Bakersfield or McFarland or delivery available. www.instagram.com/bhckern

All, most of you know by now what happened to me in February. I've written an essay about this for @harpersbazaar.uol.com.br.web.brid.gy, and I hope you'll give it a read:

“Who are you going to call if something goes wrong?” Let me impress this upon you: if you call the cops, they may shoot a child. They also might not come. They do not have any obligation to show up.

Whatever your fucking slogan is, if it doesn’t require people to confront that they have been infected with copaganda that has led them to believe untrue things about the police, it’s a bad slogan.

One of the reasons I think “defund the police” is a great slogan is that you get to repeatedly tell people that studies show that police don’t actually solve murders, and in fact one-third of stranger-murders are committed by police.

If you are arrested during a protest or action against ICE or CPD in Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected]. (This is an offer for criminal defense; I unfortunately don't do immigration law.)

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic. “Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities. If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

“Reimagining Safety” not only explains why it’s like this but also presents practical alternatives that provide real public safety. www.ReimaginingSafetyMovie.com

Denver! Join us Tuesday night for a screening, panel, and meal! All proceeds benefit Denver’s STAR program. www.ReimaginingSafetyMovie.com

What they are doing in Gaza they are keeping in their pockets to unleash on the rest of us. Humanity has failed. Where is the outrage?

Pols & police unions want us to swallow the "bad apples" theory, so that they can dangle but never implement supposed "reforms." Policing was created to protect property, not people. It can't make us safe, it can't be reformed. Please go watch @mattytheglue.bsky.social's reimaginingsafety.com

Denver “Reimagining Safety” screening, panel, dinner. Proceeds benefiting the STAR Program. 5/27 5:30p at SIE Film Center.

This Saturday in Seattle! The 90th screening of “Reimagining Safety” followed by a community panel and mutual aid “matchmaking” event! 12 Noon at Raisebeck Auditorium. www.ReimaginingSafetyMovie.com

I don't want to say the Schumer optics are bad but Gavin Newsom just invited him on his podcast.

10 experts discuss how policing and incarceration create more harm than good, why the system persists, and what changes can be made to make everyone safe: trailer: www.reimaginingsafetymovie.com @mattytheglue.bsky.social

Reimagining Safety screens this Thursday 2/27 at the Chicago Justice Gallery 6pm hosted by Social Justice Initiative, University of Illinois Chicago.

Reimagining Safety screens this Wednesday night 2/26 in Lake Station IN at 6pm at Joy Bomb! Join us!

Excited for this!!! See you at IU.

What else are you supposed to say if you actually, genuinely LIKE the person? And let me say, LIKE is a foundational precursor to all the other shit. Y'all wanna make everything cringe, but won't make unfriendliness and unkindness cringe. That's exactly how we end up with $2 arguments.

Representative Zooey Zephyr - My wife - Speaks against an trans sports ban in Montana. "Bills like this endanger [children] and puts them at risk of real predators causing harm," talks about a soccer coach demanding to see "proof" that 11 year old girls were girls. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tsf1...

Out of 510,000 NCAA athletes, less than 10 are transgender. They are literally writing an executive order to target less than a hundred people nationwide. Republicans spent over $110 million in anti-trans ads on a made up problem.

I Mix What( @imixwhatilike.bsky.social )I Like Podcast w/ Dr. Jared Ball "Copaganda: A Brief History ft. Mtume Gant" iMWiL! www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGW1...

I prefer Cylon and Garfunkel.

🚨 🚨 🚨 HOMEWORK 🚨 🚨 🚨 The email address for federal workers to inform on their colleagues is [email protected]. Would be a real shame if folks flooded that inbox, rendering it useless.

This Friday! Join us at Midnight Books for “Reimagining Safety!”

@andreforatlanta.com What would Dr. King Say About Cornelius Taylor's Death? Cornelius Taylor was a father, a son, a brother, and beloved community member. The practice of demolishing encampments, the only shelter many have, is not just wrong but deeply spiritually bankrupt. They must stop NOW!

If you are arrested in Illinois protesting deportation actions are under the Trump administration, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected].

LA area folks! Big thanks to Midnight Books for hosting the next community screening of “Reimagining Safety” on Friday 1/24 at 7pm!
