On this date in 1939, Marian Anderson sang to an Easter Sunday crowd of 75,000 at the Lincoln Memorial after the Daughters of the American Revolution refused to allow her to sing at Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C.

Trump cerró hoy el National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), que dictaba las normas de seguridad en el trabajo gringas... ¿Cuántas de nuestras normas y legislaciones referencian a las normas dictadas por esta institución? ¿Tendremos que reformar nuestras propias normas?

Breaking news: The Trump administration acknowledged in a court filing that it had wrongly deported an immigrant living in Maryland to a mega-prison in El Salvador despite a court ruling prohibiting it.

De las cosas que más me molestan de las elites actuales es su falta de sobriedad y conciencia republicana. Que una ministra de la CS se refiera como una “escandalera” un eventual caso de corrupción y que anuncie su inhabilidad casi como favor, significa que no está a la altura de su cargo.

When researchers cannot engage in legitimate scientific discourse out of fear that the government will strip away their livelihoods, we no longer live in a society that values freedom, truth, or progress.

Les están haciendo un golpe de estado y todavía no reaccionan 😬

I had a baby and wrote a book last year, and I don't think I could have done either without doing this first

I’m on a school board in WA state. ICE is not allowed to enter a school unless they have a judicial warrant. It has to have the person’s name & be signed w/a judge. This is the death of due process.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: I am here today to urge Canadians to avoid travel to the United States if at all possible and to call on our government to stand up for our citizens who are being denied their rights through arbitrary detention in the United States.

"When the most powerful man in the country—POTUS — uses derisive and misogynous language to describe women, and pays no recognizable political price for it [or for multiple accusations of sexual misconduct], one effect is the normalization of that behavior. This undermines the efforts of adults.."

Trump is a chaotic narcissistic, but Vance and the billionaires who paid for him to become vice president are more calculating and even more dangerous.

What is this? How out of touch with the moment is this? Feels less like leadership and more like a paid commercial announcement for 10 or 15 years ago.

New life everywhere...

Delicately delicate...

Russian media today announced a plan to bring in Chinese-style tech that monitors citizens’ every movement. It might be time to start forgetting the nation state. This is a global takeover by a connected power bloc.

Todavía queda un poco de verano en Chile para leer con un poquito más de tiempo. Comparto con cariño y orgullo también (sí❤️) parte de lo que escribió Constanza Michelson sobre Derecho al Tiempo: trauma y ética del Cuidado (abril2024, penguin). Por si se animan a leerlo:

In reality the most effective form of protest for the SOU would be for ALL dems to attend the speech and simultaneously stand and turn their backs to the president and stand that way until he is done. No talking, no comments, just turn their backs. Then they can host town halls and live feeds.
