I will not celebrate his death. But I will call for justice to all those who suffered at the hands of his hateful ideology.

When you take one aspect of a person’s identity and make it the explanation for their worst behaviour, but ignore that same aspect when others act violently, you are not seeking truth. You are enforcing prejudice. Resist it in yourself and call it out in others.

I did not see this response coming. Thanks all! www.facebook.com/arpinriccija...

DC is a pretense. Pay attention!

"Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat." It is already repeating itself. We waited too long. Act NOW!

Too many dismiss Alligator Alcatraz by saying, “It’s not as bad as Auschwitz!” That logic excuses harm. That’s how denial becomes complicity. We must name and confront injustice before it grows beyond what people will dare to stop. Every atrocity was once “not that bad”. Until it was.

This is historic for all the wrong reasons. I am not prone to hyperbole, but the truth is barely distinguishable from it at this point.

We’re one headline away from Trump saying that, not only are the protesters paid, but that he's responsible for the job creation.

The Stories We Are Allowed To Tell: Resistance, Power, & theM Moral Bias of History jamiearpinricci.medium.com/the-stories-... #palestine #gaza #justice #truth #history #israel

The Boulder attack was terror, not justice. Antisemitism betrays us all. Our liberation, including Palestinian liberation, means nothing if built on someone else’s harm. Free Palestine. End Antisemitism.

Empathy is the act of crossing the barriers between self and the other without collapsing difference.

"Whose America Is It?: The Systematic Dismantling of Equality" Claims of fairness mask a targeted rollback of civil rights. This isn’t about equality — it’s about restoring supremacy. jamiearpinricci.medium.com/whose-americ... #justice #racism #quality #DEI

Never tell the oppressed, who demand liberation, that they should be grateful for less oppression.

The election has taught me this: Ignorance and privilege are equally able to keep us from seeing what is right and good. #canada #election

Woe to you, you singer of songs, You bow to the weight of your fears. In the king's chamber you worship, Yet why does he cast no spears? #poetry #poem #justice

Mistaking a conditional advantage for a systemic privilege will only further harm the marginalized.

If we’re debating the fine print of what qualifies as genocide or a concentration camp, something has already gone terribly wrong. The fact that such a debate is even necessary means we've gone too far. #palestine

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

This seems to be a growing affliction. #selectiveconstitutionalitysyndrome

The Unmaking of Queer America: Silence, Supremacy, and Systemic Erasure - jamiearpinricci.medium.com/the-unmaking... It is a future where queerness is treated as a security threat. It is a remaking of America not in the image of freedom, but of supremacy.

What we are seeing: Normalizing authoritarianism. Governing by ideological fiat. Deconstruction of democracy. Creating a "new" America. Replacing dissent with loyalty. Replacing complexity with singular truth. Replacing pluralism with cultural uniformity. Replacing accountability with impunity.

The New American Psycho: How the War on Empathy Threatens our Humanity. medium.com/@jamiearpinr...

The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil signals a dangerous escalation in criminalizing dissent. Targeting pro-Palestinian activists with vague claims & detaining a lawful resident without charges threatens free speech, academic freedom & due process, setting a precedent that endangers everyone.

Trump’s memo on enforcing Rule 65(c), which demands costly bonds from plaintiffs challenging government actions, misrepresents the law, intimidates judges, silences marginalized communities and advocacy groups, and ultimately restricts access to justice for all but the wealthy.

"Canadian Bacon" is 30 years old this yes and as timely as ever.

There is far too little coverage on the death of Emily Pike. #MMIWG2S

From the LGBT Purge to McCarthyism, society has a long history of weaponizing it's own prejudices against the marginalized, then blaming and punishing them for the "threat" they pose. It's happening again, so PLEASE learn from history. humanrights.ca/exhibition/l...

What the best memes I've ever created.

I just... sigh.

Just watch it, please. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sn9E...

The fact that #SamNordquist assailants identified as 2SLGBTQIA+, does not mean it wasn’t a hate crime. Anti-trans violence often intersects with racism, hate, and intimate partner violence—about 30% of trans homicides involve known assailants. Ignoring this puts the most vulnerable at greater risk.

If the cry for justice does not come from the pulpit, it must come from the pews!

Sam Nordquist. Say his name!

Almost all so-called "third way" approaches to justice result in the powerful & privileged simply taking more and more ground.

Today’s EO bans federal funds for schools with COVID-19 vaccine mandates, undermining public health and states’ rights. It sets a dangerous precedent for restricting vaccine policies, forcing institutions to choose between safety and funding, & harming the most vulnerable.

We're rightly concerned about the implications of the Gulf of Mexico renaming. It occurred to me, however, how easily most of us settler folks accept every day the sweeping renaming/erasure at the hands of colonialism. Something to think about.

There is going to come a time in the very near future where the only way to resolve this is for every non-MAGA media company to band together and simply refuse to walk into the presser or attend the event. Because he wants the coverage more than anything else. Divided you fall.

While coming together as a country in response to threats can be important, Canadians must resist falling into nationalism in response to American nationalism. Doing so would only fuel similar movements within our own borders that seek the same ends.

History shows unchecked executive power erodes justice. From Jim Crow to apartheid, leaders have who dismantled protections deepened oppression. Trump’s rollbacks of DEI, immigration, and trade echo this dangerous pattern. If unchallenged, the impact will last generations.

ICE detainees are forced into private detention and paid cents per hour in “work programs.” This is a continuation of the new slavery in the U.S. prisons system that exploits labour, disproportionately targeting BIPOC people. New ICE detainees are next. We must resist.

Do you know how much of colonialist history can be white washed with the expression "real estate opportunity"? Call it what it is: Ethnic cleansing.

"Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world' grief. Do justly now. Love mercy now. Walk humbly now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it." -Pirkei Avot

Trayvon Martin should be celebrating his 30th birthday today. His death is not Black History. It's white history. The legacy of resistance and change that came from his murder-THAT is Black History.

In a world gone mad, kids…

Justice does not ask people to "suffer well". It seeks to end all suffering.

The VP claims prioritizing America is “a very Christian concept,” but Jesus never taught love as hierarchy. The Good Samaritan crosses boundaries to show mercy. Love isn’t zero-sum. “America First” isn’t Christian—it’s nationalism disguised as faith, contradicting God's call to love beyond borders.
