I am seeing this every day. People afraid to come for medical care. Afraid to see a specialist or get an x-ray. They are afraid regardless of status, because it is abundantly clear to anyone paying attention that legal status (even citizenship) doesn't protect you

There are no words. I am ashamed of what we have done to this family and this little boy

After latest release country should move on to Epstein trials.

I'll be there. Who'swith me? #JohnLewis #GoodTrouble

Build community Love others with abandon Joy is resistance

Please understand what a horrific miscarriage of justice this is. One day, our children and grandchildren will study this time and view this practice with horror and disbelief. Make no mistake: future generations will judge all of us for what we do in this moment. Silence is not an option

I'll be there, how about you?

We CANNOT allow this to stand. History will judge all of us for what we do in this moment

This is an excellent explainer. Read it to prepare yourself to watch and oppose the looming disaster.

Medicaid cutsnwont ONLY affect those on Medicaid

Did you know that the first work requirements in the United States EXPLICITLY only applied to Black women? They were instituted during WW1 because women of all races whose husbands were deployed received war allowances. Chapter 3: Race and rumor www.marketplace.org/episode/2023...

Today we rest. Tomorrow we resist. And every single day afterward, until our country lives up to it's best ideals.

Last week I was on Capitol Hill, pleading with members of Congress not to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and vital programs offering a lifeline to struggling families. PLEASE contact you US Representative - the House has to vote on the Senates version of the Reconciliation Bill and YOUR VOICE MATTERS

Gender-affirming care isn't just for trans and gender non-conforming people Gender-affirming care is being addressed by your correct name It's being offered the appropriate screenings It's being sensitive about your comfort in your body and your modesty It isn't something radical or specialized

Proof this guy is full of SITH.

Highly recommend "On Tyrrany" if you haven't read it already

Honestly, folks, it's the least we can do

Some good news - the CDC released an HIV Surveillance Supplemental Report with data for 2023. Unfortunately, there is no data presented on HIV incidence and PrEP coverage because...of RIF. This diminishes our situational awareness re: where we are nationally in our work to end the HIV epidemic.

20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant. They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear. They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings. The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore. kfor.com/news/local/w...

A fight in an alley is not a “boxing match”, it’s assault. A stabbing is not a “medical procedure”, it’s attempted murder. A car removed without infraction is not “towed”, it’s stolen. A person kidnapped without process is not “deported”, it’s human trafficking.

“Deporting” someone is sending them back to their country where they are free to live as citizens. What that asshole is doing is NOT deportation. It’s kidnapping and human trafficking. It’s illegally sending people to USA-funded off shore concentration camps.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

The silver lining to watching the world burn is the opportunity to build something better in its place

This might be where we are going.

What an amazing act of positive resistance and what phenomenal way to rethink higher education. What if more teachers and professors did this? What if we removed the barriers so many face to learning?

Green tomorrow. Got it

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Was there a breast cancer epidemic?! NO. Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976. PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something. This is also about autism.

Carl Sagan explains how the ancient Greeks knew the Earth was round and calculated its circumference over 2,000 years ago.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

I HIGHLY recommend On Tyranny by @timothysnyder.bsky.social if you haven't read it

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Disability is one of the few minority groups you can join at any time. People believe they will be the exception & have trouble accepting they’re likely to become disabled at some point in their lives. Work on internalized ableism. Engage in disability justice. It will benefit you in the long run
