You're either with ICE or with humanity and democracy. Choose.

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

There's a global uprising underway that the media ISN'T showing you 🖕the government around the world!

Chicago this afternoon: “No raids, no deportations, down with the occupation.”

Why do headlines say "norms shattered" when what is meant is "laws broken" or "Constitution violated"?

Massive Italy Strike, #BoycottDisneyABC, 1000+ Climate Actions & Filipinos Protest Corruption. People are making Change Everywhere. This week in Nonviolence News - FREE-- nonviolencenews.org/2025/09/27/m...

So, apparently the President and his deputy chief of staff have super-out-date intelligence info about #Portland. May DoD - sorry DoW- can update them on the fact that there are no current street battles going on in Portland.

Last time I was in #WarRavagedPortland, I got some great books at Powell's, visited the Japanese Garden and the Chinese Tea House, admired the public sculptures, and rode the excellent transit system. What was happening the last time you were there?

Impeach. Convict. Remove.

Where are they?

Our work is not done… 📌 Sinclair Broadcast Group is still refusing to air Jimmy Kimmel Live! on its ABC affiliates nationwide. Folks, you know what to do. Google Sinclair-owned networks and channels in your city and act accordingly.

@riverasun.bsky.social spoke with Clearing the FOG about the power of nonviolence, the growing interest in how to practice it, and the global shift to build a more peaceful society. Listen to the episode at: popularresistance.org/global-days-... #actiondays2025 #resist #nonviolentresistance

Trump is bad for business.

We need to be able to say both truths: nothing justifies political violence and this act of political violence does not justify a crackdown on free speech. Particularly not a coordinated, partisan, and unfounded attack on the left. This week in Nonviolence News nonviolencenews.org/2025/09/19/f...

New event! 📆29th Sept 🕗8pm Malaysia Time Join KontraS, SUARAM, Solidarity Collective TH & Pusat Studi Hukum & Kebijakan for online workshop: "Resisting Militarism and State Violence : Our Big Homework to Freedom and Democracy in Southeast Asia" Reg: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

It is easy to feel overwhelmed in the face of so much wrong, writes Daniel Hunter. But the growing chorus of dissent over Disney censoring Jimmy Kimmel shows people are finding courage. #BoycottDisney

This is US. But it doesn't have to be this way.

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

I've read these, too. If you read The Dandelion Insurrection and you'll also have some suggestions for what to do. store.riverasun.com/collections/... #books #resist #resistancelit

From the fired Black WAPO columnist to Jimmy Kimmel to Rep Ilhan Omar, censoring those who truthfully name Kirk's racist, misogynist, transphobic views does disservice to his oft-mentioned willingness to 'debate'. (And it's a chilling sign of authoritarianism.) theintercept.com/2025/09/16/i...

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

One of my fave Danish resistance stories was how the shipyard builders worked so slowly - even unscrewing the bolts when Nazis weren't looking - that by the end of the war, they hadn't built a single ship for the Nazi occupiers.

Life under authoritarianism sucks. Every day is a surreal nightmare with fresh horrors. Just a reminder that it's not crazy to want a functional democracy on a living planet that respects diversity and invests more in peace than in endless war.

Know your nonviolent tactics ... you're going to need them.

Tell your legislators to listen to the people and #FreeDC

5,531+ Actions for Campaign Nonviolence Plus! New Courses In Writing Peace & People Power The overwhelming amount of violence in the news this week is an indicator of how desperately we need to widen and expand the culture of active nonviolence. Details>> mailchi.mp/riverasun/cn...

It has been a painful ten days. Police murders, assassinations, school shootings, drone attacks, bombings, forced starvation and genocide. So much violence. But this is not the full story – that’s where Nonviolence News comes in. nonviolencenews.org/2025/09/12/2... Thanks @riverasun.bsky.social

In case you're wondering what action we should take, banning assault weapons is a good place to start. After decades of mass shootings, there's a whole list of very sensible legislation that can stop this.

Our number of registered actions for Action Days 2025 has officially passed 5,530! 🥳 We're still more than a week out from Action Days, so it's not too late to sign up for an event near you, or register your own! To get involved, check out our Action Days page: paceebene.org/action-days

A short message for #InternationalDayofPeace #PeaceDay2025 coming up on Sept 21.

"Authoritarians rely on keeping us immobilized with fear, passive in the face of cruelty, or silenced by hate. But every time we flip into courage, kindness, and love, we deny authoritarianism some of its power." 4 stories that illustrate this: paceebene.org/blog/2025/8/...

Thanks for the shout-out, Dariel. And yes, a great way to #resist #billionairerule is to buy your books from #indieauthors, not Bezos and Amazon.

✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻 Get up and take a stand - Chicago fights hand in hand! #ICEoutofChicago #HandsOffChicago @chicago-cata.bsky.social @icirr.bsky.social

You can try to silence genocide but the harder you try the louder it speaks. We will not Be silent #FreePalestine

"If we want to live in a democratic society, we have to demand it. Find what you want to work on and do that, because we need you in the movement." @riverasun.bsky.social www.ncronline.org/opinion/gues...

Someone asked me if I was surprised at what's happening in the US right now. My answer? No. I literally wrote the book on it 12 years ago. The Dandelion Insurrection was fiction then. store.riverasun.com/collections/...
