Organizing resilient communities & progressive movements for collective care. SHARING Mutual-aid resources for courageous post-collapse transition: infusing our politics with acts of radical imagination, compassion and beauty for all ages. How can I help?
Civil resistance is growing: "Your neighbors are mobilizing. Some of it is happening in plain sight, on subreddits and in local Facebook groups, where people are offering help, expressing a need for it, or asking how to get involved."

Social movements are more likely to have success when three factors are present: elite conflict, shifting public opinion, and elite blunders.

Mass collective action can create the conditions for these factors to emerge and deepen.

Damning statements from ICE agents. “Yet another ‘justified’ fatal shooting … ten vs. one and somehow they couldn’t find a way to subdue the guy or use a less than lethal [means] - they all carry belts and vests with 9,000 pieces of equipment and the best they can do is shoot a guy in the back?”
I interviewed over half a dozen ICE and Border Patrol agents about Alex Pretti's death and every single one of them blame the Border Patrol agent

Impeach Stephen Miller, he's the sickest of the lot.

Miller's leaked emails to Breitbart in 2015/16 reveal the extremist, anti-immigrant ideology behind his policies of arrest quotas, Muslim bans, and traumatic family separation at refugee resettlement facilities.

CANVAS Core Curriculum: A Guide to Effective Nonviolent Struggle
We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

People magazine on today's murder by ICE.
CBP has murdered another person in Minneapolis, in broad daylight, on video. This was not an accident or an isolated incident. There is no finger-pointing or spin Trump and Republicans can put on this to convince anyone otherwise. This is murder — just like we saw with Renee Nicole Good.

Another question I came here with was: how effective are the whistles and honking? Does it stop abductions? And the answer is, surprisingly to my cynical self, yes, and often. I have talked to so many people who have successfully interrupted kidnappings.

They were eventually allowed one phone call as a thanks for saving the agent’s life.

They used it to call their lawyer, who called their state representative, who ultimately got them released on the condition they tell people they were “treated kindly.”

Rapid Response Networks in the Twin Cities, resisting the horrific military occupation by ICE: "We leave the house at 5 am, bundled up in the sub-freezing Minnesota winter...Our driver opens their phone and joins a running Signal call in a 1000-person chat that was created eight hours prior."
The Republican and Democrat congress members who just voted to fund ICE while ICE is terrorizing and murdering people are accessory to kidnapping, child abuse, and murder.

They are actively establishing fascist autocracy over the corpse of Renee Good.

Fight back. 🏴

This woman reports on a random ICE abduction in her Minneapolis neighbourhood - eight ICE agents went berserk, pinned in a car, broke its windows and violently dragged out its passengers, inc. a minor. Just assaulting and terrorizing random people.
