Here's a great read for Black History Month (or any month!). In The Cooking Gene, James Beard award-winning culinary and cultural historian @koshersoul.bsky.social travels the South, tracing his roots and the history of Southern cuisine. p.s. Please buy books from indies not ICE-enabling oligarchs.

ICYMI: My story fm. a visit to the only remaining Georgia sea island community of Gullah Geechee–descend's of West African enslaved ppl.–as they face a historic referendum on their land: atlpresscollective.com/2026/01/19/s... @dnbrgr.bsky.social @koshersoul.bsky.social @michaelharriot.bsky.social

#Minneapolis has become the Birmingham Campaign moment of the Resistance.

In our latest: The feds created a drone no fly zone to stop people from recording ICE. The order appears to attempt to criminalize the use of drones to film Immigration and Customs Enforcement and DHS employees who are detaining people all over the country.

I love immigrants. They come here looking for a better life and in exchange bring their food, culture, music making the country a better, more diverse and interesting place. I would choose them as my neighbors over someone who hates them on principle every fucking time.

Get an imagination.

ok who’s writing the treatment of this for netflix because I’d definitely watch this show

The FBI searched the home of a Washington Post reporter seeking classified state documents. Nothing she wrote about could be considered classified. They simply want to suppress dissent via intimidation. Don't let them. Here is what she wrote. Please share. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The Hmong are here because they fought for the US in a war we lost.

People didn't take that Access Hollywood tape seriously and now Trump is doing it globally

Jacob Frey told ICE agents to get the fuck out of Minneapolis, a hugely popular viral moment, and the media has been browbeating him over it ever since. Trump flipped a guy off and told him fuck you and it’s barely acknowledged.

Want to help folks being terrorized by ICE in Minnesota? Well look at this google doc someone made. Lots of GoFundMe's that haven't met their goals yet. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

The de facto position of the Trump administration is that it's occupying forces are allowed to mock and belittle American citizens, and also allowed to kill citizens who mock and belittle them.

"I was tired of my sons being indoctrinated into radical ideologies at school. Now, they don’t go to school, so there’s no one shaming them for their masculinity. Plus, they have a perfect outlet for their male energy: stripping copper from abandoned shopping malls."

Every person that is saying ENOUGH, DEMAND IMPEACHMENT OF TRUMP FOR TREASON. THAT'S DOING SOMETHING. DO IT OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL IT STICKS. UNTIL HE'S IMPEACHED FOR TREASON. Don't worry about ANYTHING ELSE. Don't worry about what he's doing. KEEP FILING DON'T STOP!!!

Boy, the "I wish i was old enough to fight in World War II" demographic has really been revealing which side they wished they could have foughg for.

Yesterday Elon Musk retweeted "white solidarity is the only way to survive". In our numb overwhelmed media environment it barely made headlines that the world's richest man endorsed blood-curdling white nationalism. My brief writeup for @religiondispatches.org religiondispatches.org/elon-musk-ju...

Literally the first news outlet I've seen directly quoting her wife. Even the NPR piece on Renee Good that aired this morning made no mention of Becca Good whatsoever.

the best antidote to blackpilling is remembering that every video you see of an ICE thug abusing their power was recorded by an American who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of people they've likely never met and never will

Heard!

Trump lies again. Countries with mail in voting:

He's fighting hard but the die is cast.

The Plot to Enslave America

The rage that has to exist in the average Minnesotan to watch someone stuck on an icy hill and STAND BY AND TAUNT THEM

I have personally met two lesbians who have moved to the area from Florida in the past couple of years.

The situation in Minneapolis is insane: seemingly many large convoys of heavily armed masked men, blocking off streets at random, grabbing people nearly at random, racing around the city with no discernible plan or aim. Under attack by our own government the day after it killed someone

Minnesota resident: My dad fought in World War II. He'd be rolling in his grave to see what's happening to America now. America needs to hold up a mirror to see what we become. This is just so un-American to see Americans assaulting Americans like this.

He grow up between Columbus and Cincy hours away from any hollow - he’s a fraud

Remembering today that having your heart broken is a necessary step on the path to becoming fully human. Whichever heartbreak is your first, it’s probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination. If this is your first, I’m sorry and also welcome.

Trump's goons are already pepper spraying and roughing up people in the Twin Cities this morning

"You deserve to die if you disagree with us" is their position. bsky.app/profile/atru...

If it wasn’t already clear, it is definitely now the patriotic duty of every decent person in this country to videotape ICE anytime and anywhere they appear. It won’t stop the Trump administration from lying, but it will help provide counter evidence.

there we go, that’s a headline

Ah well. Can't disagree here really. Americans did vote for masked agents of the state to kill innocent people, whether they understood that at the time or not. Too bad they didn't listen to anyone who tried to explain it to them bsky.app/profile/atru...

The no-angeling is already in full swing.

This is incredible chutzpah when anyone with eyes can look at the video and see that not a word of this is remotely true.

Lmfao

I wish Republicans were as outraged that Trump is ignoring court orders and using ICE as his Nazi Gestapo to disappear and murder US citizens, as they were that time Barack Obama wore a tan suit. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

For what it’s worth, Gov. Walz opened his press conference right now recognizing Renee Good “and her wife.”

Right after Renée Good’s disgusting murder, a ICE goon was filmed kicking her memorial candles. Absolutely vile.

This is bullshit. They absolutely have jurisdiction.

banning X is a national security issue for every country, plain and simple its explicit goal is to amplify and empower the largest Nazi-adjacent party in every country in which it operates it is also the largest deepfake porn generator in the world this is not a difficult call to make

Democrats, you must punish them because we elected you to punish them.

The person who was shot in the face here is a local organizer who has been very active in the Movement for Black lives.

This needs to happen, and the only way it happens is if we're prepared to treat as null and void the inevitable blanket pardons. A coherent account of how and why they're invalid, and the political will to do what it takes to make that stick.
