BIG NEWS! New podcast coming out THIS MONTH! Native people have been left out of the story of America—but without us you don’t know what happened. FIRST AMERICA tells the true story of how this country started and how we got here. Subscribe now, wherever you listen to podcasts.

The USA is fundamentally Stolen Lands Built by Stolen Hands. This is the history we need to reckon with, instead of the shallow propaganda of an administration more concerned with its image than the people it claims to represent. #NotAnother250 #NotAnotherDay #LANDBACK #Reparations

In response to this hypocrisy, we're releasing our statement, "250 Years of Lies, 500 Years of Uprising,” read more at ndnco.cc/250 Indigenous Peoples have existed long before the US Empire was established, and we will continue to thrive beyond it. The future is LANDBACK and Black Reparations.

This is how *I* feel about 🇺🇸’s 250th anniversary! #landback

Invasion day protests, There is a direct connection between American exceptionalism and the bad shit that's happening.. the 4th of July is unequivocally linked to this. America's deserve free healthcare #landback

It’s worth watching Mamdani’s full 13-minute address. THIS is the 4 of July speech the country deserves. If you teach, consider adding it to your curriculum. If you’re a parent, watch it with your kids. This is a weekend to reflect. This speech was pitch-perfect. This speech should be remembered.

This is 1852 speech by Frederick Douglass is a powerful bookend to Mamdani’s speech. They deserve to be heard together.

Trump’s winter siege of Minneapolis irrevocably changed the city, bringing together unlikely communities and revealing clues about what it takes to fight back against MAGA, Francis Wilkinson says: bloom.bg/4fhRTeW

white man terrorized a black woman over a parking space. She pulls a gun out and tells him to leave her alone. He continued coming at her. She walks backwards and he walks towards her. She continues retreating, gun trained on him, he continues pursuing. She shoots him dead. Give her a medal.

RIP, Quint. You would've loved Widow's Bay.

lower net migration ---> declining GDP Spain knows. #immigration #growth

"Patriotic" holidays can be especially vicious times for marginalized folks to be exposed. Even under a "less out-of-control" time. Let's help Britt stay safe!

If ever I were to start playing video games, this one would be one of the ones that got me to do it. It sounds lovely.

Just a reminder. I'm always surprised how many people aren't aware of this. #Libraries

Bahahahahahahahahaha Ok, The Economist. Very good on the cautious wording there. “For some.”Like the thousands of people being forced to exist in horrific conditions in concentration camps? Yep, it’s fair to say the American dream has soured. Ffs. (I did not and will not read the article.)

Yeah if you're drinking a Liquid IV, Gaterade, Powerade or anything like that you HAVE to make sure you drink water. Electrolytes are salts and will further dehydrate you if you're not drinking enough water.

I will die on the hill that you absolutely can use fireworks and your relationship to them is a class indicator and a commentary on how or where you grew up.

everyday is the same but worse

Charles II: Did you finish that statue of the Archangel Michael defeating the devil? Luisa Roldán: Si y yo hice la Diablo real fucking sexy, just like you asked

Finally finished A Memory Called Empire, which I think I said I would read several months ago… the world building is SO FUN! There is sweet, subtle romance, not usually my thing these days, but the relationship was really well developed. Otherwise, there is space, court intrigue, and adventure! 💙📚🪐

The full painting!

It’s wild we let them spin these as free services when we pay for all of them.

100% this. But on top of that, trans people also deserve to be average. Unassuming. Normal. We should have the right to make it to the other side of the survivorship bias machine without having to be the most exceptional among us. Please, fight for trans rights. It matters to everyone.

that’s why when i’m out in it, they get nothing but the glow on a thousand trillion. if me in all my natural glory causes such gnashing of teeth, let me make you bite that tongue clean off. you’re welcome…enjoy this walk-by air courtesy of shea vanilla butter, ybamfy

Society literally goes, oh shit! I got her in my sight. It's a Black woman doing her thing & she sure looks special. Let's attack now! Black women need to know their place.

"If new to this passage from Octavia E. Butler's novel, you may be tempted to think she could tell the future, but as she discussed in her 2000 Essence essay, if one studies history, one is better equipped to anticipate the future..." 👀 www.equitableforall.com/articles/ref...

Wow, I didn't know that Toni choreographed Once in a Lifetime! I used songs from Remain in Light for a high school dance class in Newark, where my students created duets with chairs and other objects in our underfunded classroom.

In general people need to expand their understanding of gentrification as not just a free market phenomenon that happens in a vacuum but rather an intentional result of policy that rewards systemic denial of resources to places where people can afford to live & brings violence to those who remain.

The systemic element is important because it allows for things like segregation, violence & overpolicing to be handled by the state while exclusifying & privatizing safety, education & security so that settlers can still feel liberal & Not Racist & even disapproving as they aren’t actively doing it.

Well, this is a delightful exchange. One thing about the horrors of late stage capitalism is they are also absurd.

Putting this in a cart somewhere immediately. #booksky 📚

This is a really powerful piece:

We collated reports from various rapid response groups, showing that between May 11 and June 15, agents detained at least 80 people across the Chicago area: 38 in Chicago proper and 42 in the suburbs. Federal agents were most busy in the midweek, with detainments spiking on Wednesdays.

Seeing some more "rules of writing" posts going around, most of which seem to reflect values like "grab 'em by the attention" and "keep them by asking nothing of them", so let's work on a different version! Rules of writing, Haunted style: 1. Speak to the reader you want
