The man @jollygoodginger.bsky.social is currently in Chicago. He's working with Pilsen defence & Access patrolling schools to try snd prevent ICE from kidnapping parents and children. Not all heros wear capes but anyone protecting kids is a hero in my book.

My friend Stevie White Magpie is a Lakota grandmother who lives in Box Elder, SD. She's been raising her 3 grandkids and last week her daughter died in a car crash, so now she's raising 4. She needs help with food and clothes for them, if anyone is able.

Gavin Newsom: “What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren’t screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It’s all at stake. People need to wake up. We can’t continue to play by the old set of rules.“

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

The audacity of white men is introducing themselves as “a musician” (self-taught guitar with smooth baby fingers 😂) knowing I’m right there.

It’s akin to introducing myself as “a doctor” in front of a surgeon.

Canada’s new government is starting Automatic Federal Benefits. We’re going to pre-file taxes for up to 5.5 million low-income Canadians, so they get the benefits they are entitled to — money that would otherwise be left unclaimed.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Yesterday I was told that the class I’m scheduled to teach this month, Confronting Oppression & Injustice, is no longer part of our curriculum. This is a required class yet there was no discussion, no faculty vote, just an email saying the class no longer exists. This is what it’s like in Texas now.
