I’m thankful for my family, friends, and my union! #family #friends #union

No war but class war #antifascista #fightfascism #nowar

🧵Thread: Union educators are on the front lines of the struggle against censorship and whitewashed curricula designed to uphold systems of oppression. By organizing collectively, we fight for the freedom to teach the truth about racism, class struggle, colonialism, gender, and resistance. 1/2

Hi, friends: I'm collecting signatures to get the NBI I submitted for this year's NEA RA (NBI 1) officially on the floor for debate. I'd appreciate it if those who are RA Delegates could take a moment to read, review, and sign: bit.ly/2025NBI1signatures #neara #neara25 #neara2025

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here. So, I come to you today with a question: If someone told you that their chicken tasted too chickeny would you know what they meant? #chicken #question #food #opinion

We’re six months tops from other countries letting Americans apply for political asylum.

Worth mentioning that the Nazification of universities was a pretty key part of the rise of the Nazi Party.

Random thought of the day: I’d give nearly anything to see Elon Musk trip and take a digger on national tv. It’s the small things in life. #broligarchs #elonmuskrat #elonmuskisarobot #elonmusksucks

I am seeking endorsement from the EDU caucus in MA to run for either President or Vice President of the Mass Teachers Assoc. Curious about where I stand on different topics? I’ve started a short series of videos you can check out over on the Tok: www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2gea3Hk/ #1u #union

16-03-1977 FRANCE: Unions win retirement at age 60 for women.

First it was Mahmoud Khalil. Next it was Fabian Schmidt. These are the first tests…we must never accept this as normal and must see all the signs that we are falling into an autocratic regime. No choice but to #StandUpFightBack! www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...

Why do I keep seeing Jake Auchincloss in my feed? Dude was nowhere to be found when Newton was on strike and now he’s everywhere. Guess we located the missing person!

It’s beyond me that there’s still people who think we can legislate our way out of the fascist oligarchy that is the United States. It’s time for deep relational organizing…working people rising up are the antidote! #1u #union #antifascist #antifascista #bellaciao #wakeup

Read more thriller. Read more poetry. Read more romance. Read more philosophy. Read more non-fiction. Read more anthologies. Read more historical fiction. Whatever you do. Just read.

Union Night at the Dropkicks in Boston✊🍀🌹 #1u #union #dropkickmurphys

PSA: Stay home if you are sick. Bc someone came to a meeting sick on Mon I’m on day 3 of a BAD stomach bug. Thankfully, nearly all of my meetings this week were already scheduled via zoom so I can stay away from people. Don’t let the boss guilt you into not using sick days when you’re sick.

In case anyone needs a little pick-me-up… “You are exactly where you’re meant to be. Keep going.” #affirmations

We need your support @missdebgee.bsky.social. We will be holding demonstration and collecting donations for the Boston Rescue Mission at 4pm in the Boston Common. Please help #Mass50501 to #BuildTheResistance and spread word to the masses.

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

Democratic (small “d”) unionism and decentralized decision making is the antidote! #1u #union #rankandfile #solidarity #organize #standupfightback

Stop accepting the takeover of our country by a fascist regime. 🚮🗑️ #antifascist #antifaacista #antifascistaction #1u #union #workingpeople #standupfightback

We…not me #antifascist #antifascista #antifascistaction #1u #union #standupfightback

DCA > BOS Gross weather yesterday, but thanks to the expertise of Delta union pilots and wonderful flight attendants we finally got to Boston safely! @afadelta.bsky.social @afacwa.org @deltapilots.bsky.social @neatoday.bsky.social @massteacher.bsky.social @flyingwithsara.bsky.social #1u #union

I hope DT gets a raging case of the runs from whatever stadium food he eats and misses any of the good parts of the game bc he’s sitting on the crapper. #Superbowl

I’m rooting for Taylor Swift tonight. ✨🪩✨

One of the things that was nakedly clear post-January 6, and which Democrats largely failed to confront, is that the basic norms and institutions of liberal democracy are too far eroded to protect through normal modes of engagement like voting and calling legislators.

The number of Malden residents who have reached out to me urging me to move there and run for Mayor is a testament to the impact of our union and a damning indictment of the current administration. It’s clear that too many people feel unheard, unrepresented, & desperate for real leadership.

Ok, so…as previously mentioned, my mom just joined BlueSky. She’s a retired teacher, lifetime union member, and a fantastic organized. Who do you think she should be following on her? Let me know and I’ll pass the info on! #whotofollow #whoshouldifollow #union #1u #labor #teacher #organizer

You know BlueSky is legit when my mom joins

Do you think I’d make a good Commissioner of Education? I’m sure the MA BESE would love to read my application🤣 #1u #union #teacher

Maybe, someone who has never worked a day in his life and bankrupted 5 casinos doesn’t understand how economics works.

I’ve heard from SO many folks who’ve reached out to say they’re sorry they didn’t support the NBI I brought to the ‘24 RA re: supporting organizing a major action in 2028. It’s almost like people didn’t think the reality we are living in today could actually happen. #1u #union #may2028

You're not overwhelmed. You're under attack.

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

No matter where we come from or what we believe, all students deserve the freedom to express their identities and feel safe in their classrooms. On #WorldHijabDay, we honor the courage and resilience of Muslim women who choose to wear the hijab, often in the face of discrimination.

Too many left-of-center politicians and institutions are unwilling to come to grips with the reality that when the state, courts, and law are weaponized against you, the only way to fight involves a willingness to break the law.

Together we are stronger. Together we are heard. #1u #union

resist the comfort of despair

tell me more about how everything is unfolding exactly according to Trump’s plan

We are deeply concerned about the current state of our country. As civil servants, we are doing everything in our power to resist, even if it costs us our jobs. We are proud to be Americans, but what is happening right now does not reflect the values we, as Americans, stand for!

“In Europe, left labor organizations are uniting against anti-immigrant and anti-queer violence, condoned and encouraged by the rising number of elected fascist governments. UNI Europa (...) for instance, has signed the Manifesto of the International Federation of Antifascist Trade Unions.”

This is our @afacwa.org and ALPA family. Let us all stay focused on saving lives. Strength and support for all first responders.

PSA and reminder: Do not “obey in advance.”Anticipatory compliance is how fascism wins. The goal is fear. The antidote is courage to take action!
