"39% of uses were in residential areas, 17% in agricultural lands and 44% in forested or open terrain." Over half of Israel's uses of white phosphorus in Southern Lebanon is a war crime. And the South is Lebanon's bread basket- Israel is once again preparing to use starvation as a weapon of war.

If you’re a parent, one of the most radical things you can do is teach your kids about real history. Teach them about liberation movements, protests, and supplement what they’re learning in school with a less whitewashed version of history

"I worry that my other friends could be arrested, too. It’s a constant fear... & I’m always worried when they go out...I don’t want anything bad to happen to them." ICE detained Dylan Lopez Contreras, a freshman at Ellis, for 10 months. His friends now live in constant fear & grief. bit.ly/4rddbNN

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.

There is no easier or more important political position to take than to do everything possible to stop this. It will change our society forever, and Democrats are going along with it.

#OtD 15 Feb 2003 huge protests occurred around the world against war on Iraq, including 1.5 million on the streets of London: the biggest demonstration in UK history. But the war began regardless, teaching many that passive protest alone is not enough stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8665...

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

ICE has been holding a disabled Black man for a year! Rodney Taylor is a double amputee who was days away from receiving new prosthetic legs when ICE took him. He’s been denied his prosthetics & placed in solitary. His health is declining. Public outrage might save his life. Say his name:

A teacher literally shaking as she describes the threat from her own government to the children she teaches www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

It seems clear Alex Pretti, a healthcare worker, was murdered for engaging in the exact kind of community care we hope all care workers to embody: the kind that doesn’t stop at the threshold of the hospital, the clinic, but that aims to care for and support the community where and how they can

It isn’t healthy to be this angry all the time. But it also isn’t healthy if this doesn’t make you angry.
