This is fucking horrifying.

Political violence? It's political violence to carpet bomb entire communities, to bury people in rubble, to manufacture crisis & hunger, to withhold medicine & healthcare - to subject the vast majority of people on the face of the earth to avoidable suffering. THAT is political violence.

The conversation we’re not ready to have yet is that having empathy for a white supremacist is part of what upholds white supremacy. And by that measure alone, it fails to be empathy at all.

How many more warning do American elites and masses need?

Canada has remained complicit in arming Israel, despite what the govt says! Read the report & email your reps! armsembargonow.ca/report/

One of so many beautiful pieces by @andreagibson.bsky.social The world lost a luminous soul.

I've said this a lot in recent essays but not as often here: Yes, we're witnessing the expansion and entrenchment of a police state in the US. But unlike the vast majority of concentration camp regimes I've studied, most Americans still have countless opportunities to resist. We can stop it.

Good read! Gives me hope & gives us ALL no excuses for remaining silent/not taking action. TL/DR: There are big & small things that we each can do to make a difference to fight authoritarianism, fascism, and to dismatle the oppressive systems in which we live. substack.com/@avaduvernay...

Every day Israel starves 2 million people in Gaza. Every day it massacres dozens after luring them to its "aid hubs" with the promise of food. Every day the media treats this as an entirely routine story, barely worth reporting.

By me: Black communities in 2020 did not march for months,risking arrest & tear gas, to receive apologies & platitudes, nor did they plead for more Black officers, bodycams, yet another “community policing” program, or long discredited programs of mass criminalization www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

Communities resisting against ICE raids in L.A. and Chicago are a model for us all, both sides of the border. Reject state violence, protect one another, and do not be afraid to stay human in inhuman times.

PROTECT BLACK & ALL STUDENTS- Rally next Thursday June 26 at queen’s park at noon, against the provincial govt motion to mandate police back into Ontario schools. Kids welcome! #NotGoingBack docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Some pics from yesterday’s art build - signs for the national rally taking place this Saturday in Ottawa! #FreePalestine #ArmsEmbargoNow #CeaseFireNow #alleyesongaza

It's happening right in front of us. Right in front of us. It's like if everyone in Nazi Germany had screens in their homes broadcasting exactly what was happening inside the extermination camps the entire time. Nobody can say they didn't know. That claim does not exist for us.

ALL. OF. THIS. 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾😞😡😞😡 “Silence is NOT neutral. It is death dressed in passivity”. “Wh*te supremacy, patriarchy, capitalism, imperialism..they are NOT separate forces. They are limbs of the same beast, devouring land and soul. And at every level, it is silence that allows the violence to endure.”

You know shit is bad when Pete Buttigieg drops the F-bomb in a public video.

With an election upon us in Canada, make sure Palestine is on the ballot! votepalestine.ca

At Cornell University in New York state, outspoken international student activist Momodou Taal has filed a lawsuit along with two others, seeking to block Trump’s executive orders targeting Palestinian rights activists. www.democracynow.org/2025/3/21/he...

💯💯💯💯💯💯 wise words from @frederickjoseph.bsky.social “ It costs nothing to bear witness. It costs nothing to amplify… to remind the world that atrocity does not happen in a vacuum…” 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

One of the better descriptions I’ve heard of for Cheeto (tRump), courtesy of Brittlestar: “morning-after-a-curry turd in a suit.” 😂😂😂😂😂

It’s why Democrats have never actually attempted to fix the problem. It’s why no political party has because the minute you start undermining white power and it’s capitalist heart the whole system comes into question.

Israeli-made surveillance technologies and “training expeditions” are accelerating the militarization of campus police departments across the US.

Nice job #snl50, honouring Sinead and Prince at the same time! Still, so sad that Sinead’s accurate statement on SNL resulted in the crashing of her career… 😞

Great episode esp. for #BHM Laura Mae Lindo talks “Everyday Politics” with MP Matthew Green-two accomplished Black politicians discussing how“Black Agenda” issues are actually issues that impact us ALL. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere - MLK Jr youtu.be/MCI529mppN4?...

Does stirring my natural almond butter count as an arm workout? Asking for a friend… 💪💪😉
