On this day in 1997, we lost John Denver — the voice behind “Take Me Home, Country Roads” and “Annie’s Song.” His music still soars through mountain air and radio waves, reminding us how sweet life on Earth can be.

On this day in 1971, John Lennon released ‘Imagine.’ A piano, a dream, and a plea for peace—five decades later, it still feels like the world’s most beautiful what-if.

Now we walk in empty glens
Rushes blowing in the wind
A voice that's calling you again
To come back home

Just 'cause it has to be said every now and then.

Now Starmer wants to arrest people for pro-Palestine chants.

He can try to silence the truth but we will not be cowed: his government is complicit in genocide.

This Saturday, we march for Gaza. Let's make it massive 🇵🇸

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

I see a lot of people saying that a person charged with a crime deserves the chance to prove their innocence.

Please stop doing this because you have it backwards and this is really important.

It is ALWAYS the government's burden to prove a person guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
