Building organization entails attending not only to one's own base but to the broader organizational ecosystem as a whole.
• Who else is inhabiting the same ecosystem?
• What is each org's niche (role) within it?
• What essential niches are currently most undervalued (and thus most under-occupied)?

Marcelle Meyer—wow. This recording of Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante défunte" is a riveting experience of aurally holding contradiction: decorum contests despair; joy is breathed into the sadness. I somehow wasn't aware of her until tonight; now I'm hooked. youtu.be/lN4S9mFbCqc?si=q9iAREw8j0gS4Bx1

ICE’s actions tear families apart, intimidate communities, & undermine the conditions that make education, research, healthcare, & public trust possible.
We’re calling on scientists to join the general anti-ICE strike in Minnesota on January 23rd.

And also, those of us who are disabled/chronically ill in other ways cant risk covid infection compounding it, so we’re less able to contribute in person. Which sucks because calling reps & writing emails alone is less satisfying emotionally than sitting around a table collaborating with people.
I think what progressives miss about mass disability from covid is it takes people out of the movement.
I canvassed, phone banked, called reps, volunteered at the polls, wrote letters, advocated locally, mentored.
Now, all I can do is… couch. From one stinking covid infxn.

King’s dream called for nothing less than a radical restructuring of our economic system from racial capitalism to democratic socialism.
Honoring him means standing with nurses on strike, ending ICE’s racist violence, and fighting for dignity for all of God’s children.

It's always great when you can vote for the DSA candidate on WFP's line. Our first chance to do so this year will be for Diana Moreno in AD-36, Zohran's old Assembly district.
(PS—at the moment, I think it's likely we'll see a NYC-DSA candidate on WFP's line in another 14–15 districts this cycle.)

[a drawing of a ring camera with an ice agent dragging a person away in its field of vision]
"In October of 2025, Amazon's Ring announced its partnership with FLOCK, an A.I. surveillance group that freely shares its footage with ICE, the secret service, and the navy. Flock customers can use A.I. tools to sift through footage to assist in all manner of operations (like raids and deportations) without a warrant. Unplug Ring! Melt ICE! Protect your neighbors!

Great @inthesetimes.com piece by Rishi Awatramani. For me, this is its key lesson for this moment: "What Reconstruction proves is that broad fronts can deliver sweeping change—even against violent opposition—and that, unless racial divisions are faced, no front can withstand authoritarian backlash."
"The most effective strategy—deeply rooted in American history—is to build a broad front across class, sector and ideology to isolate and defeat authoritarian power."
