Written by Black, gay poet Claude McKay and originally published in 1919, this poem resonates with any resistance struggle before or after that year. #BookSky #NoKings #BlackLivesMatter #LGBTQIARightsAreHumanRights www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44694/...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Iman. Iman has two children Zakaria, 5 and Elias, 3 and is pregnant. She has a high risk pregnancy and may develop blood clots so she has to have injections of Clexane daily to prevent this. She’s living in a tent with no bathroom.

Iman has unique photos, social media that predates the war and sent me a photo holding her Palestinian ID. Having a high risk pregnancy is stressful in the best of circumstances, having one while being displaced with two small children in in a tent without basic hygiene is beyond stressful.

After the inevitable beating back of American-grown fascist oligarchs, we need to restructure our institutions, taxes, & resource distribution in the direction of genuine equity. Among other things, that means public education to the professional level will be free. www.tiktok.com/@drjessicakn...

Kavanaugh stop. Smashed the kid’s car windows and arrested him. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. The officer replied “I don’t care.” www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Muhammad is hoping he can get his girls some place where they can go to school ❤️

Boston's Mayor Wu playing with Yo-Yo Ma at Symphony Hall

I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Amani. Amani’s husband was martyred and she is raising her five boys on her own (she told me they all want to be doctors), Batoul, 13, Mohammed, 11, Hassan, 9, Omar, 5 and Youseff, 3. Both Amani and Omar have serious injuries and need care.

“Being complicit in criminal stuff and not standing up to bad people doing bad things carries possible risk of consequences for use of free will— Even if you were — say it with me — just following orders. News at 11.”

Here's hoping. #Consequences

In plain terms, the United States aligned itself with Russia against Ukraine and NATO. By transmitting Moscow’s surrender terms unedited and pressuring Kyiv to accept them, the Trump Regime effectively sided with Russia in the war and attempted to force Ukraine’s capitulation. It is betrayal.

Helping a teenager who wants to grow up and help others seems like a solid investment ❤️

At this point in my life -not to mention in the millenniums of patriarchal/kyriarchal evils- I have 0 benefit of the doubt for members of an oppressing group behaving as if they have 0 idea of their roles as such. #HeKnows #DoBetter youtube.com/shorts/mA61C...

Not one MAGA Republican has criticized the president’s repeated calls to murder six Congressional Democrats Instead, they defended Trump-and attacked the Dems FOR TELLING OUR TROOPS TO FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION Apparently-according to the GOP-if you now follow the law you are committing sedition

The part where they threatened to break a judge’s car windows should be a bigger story … they feel comfortable treating judges this way, which means they are being told that they can do literally anything to nearly everyone

The Domino Theory was an excuse for imperialism in the context of governing philosophies, but in the context of civil/human rights protected by jurisprudential precedent, it's an apt description of the Right's currently-being-shoved plan to turn back the clock on all that. youtu.be/oVf7ojbsXHA?...

Whether it's pedophilia or ephebophilia, it's pathological & unethical even in places where it's legal - like Missouri where I grew up +33 more U S. states. Yes, legal. [If the available legal marriage is formalized & even if that happens after the crime of child rape.] youtu.be/mL21iRFPoJU?...
