Today is the 58th anniversary of the Orangeburg Massacre. An event where the South Carolina national guard opened fire on a large group of high school & college students at an HBCU that injured at least 28 and killed three.

One person was punished, an innocent student named Cleveland Sellers

The American #adoption industry isn’t guided by #adopted people. If it were, the suicide rates of mothers and adopted people would be a research priority. Thanks to @linaleadswithlove.bsky.social for informing me.

Here’s a useful reminder of what our federal courts SHOULD be doing to uphold our constitutional traditions:
Annotating the Judge’s Decision in the Case of Liam Conejo Ramos, a 5-Year-Old Detained by ICE (Gift Article)
Our critic annotates the barbed wordplay of a decision challenging the Trump administration’s theory of executive power.

They are loved. They are respected.

They live rent free in the deranged mind of #Trump

No masks, period. No excuses.

I never wore a mask when I was fighting in a combat zone. ICE shouldn't wear masks in the streets of American cities.

A defesa da democracia como precondição de novas lutas sociopolíticas
Independentemente das diferenças ideológicas no campo democrático, mobilizar-se e votar em António José Seguro no próximo dia 8 de Fevereiro é um ato de defesa da democracia.

Awe inspires diminished focus on the self, increased prosocial relationality and a heightened sense of meaning.

Awe arises in encounters with stimuli that are vast such as other people’s courage and kindness, nature, collective gatherings, the arts, spiritual practice, epiphanies, birth, and death…
Awe as a Pathway to Mental and Physical Health
How do experiences in nature or in spiritual contemplation or in being moved by music or with psychedelics promote mental and physical health? Our proposal in this article is awe. To make this argument, we first review recent advances in the ...

ICE has been attacking our region since June and thousands of street vendors, day laborers, and immigrant businesses are struggling to pay the rent. Still, no rent relief has been distributed.
We demand the BOS increase the rent debt threshold to three months' rent for all of LA County!

Is it worth it to contact your members of Congress if they're Republicans? Absolutely! 📣
Last night, GOP Senator Rand Paul went on national TV to flatly reject DHS's lies about the Pretti execution:

"My advice to [DHS], if they're watching:

If you come into [our hearing] and try to justify that [Pretti] was assaulting a police officer, that cannot be acceptable."

“The search was a harbinger of things to come, signaling Mr. Trump’s growing willingness to use the vast powers of federal law enforcement to intervene in election matters in the lead-up to the critical 2026 midterms…”

Em prosa e poesia, brasileiros em Portugal abordam xenofobia, estereótipos, irracionalidade da burocracia e disputas pela língua
O recifense Álvaro Filho trabalha há anos num jornal lisboeta e seus textos já ganharam prêmios em Portugal, mas às vezes ele ainda escuta, de pessoas cultas, poliglotas e progressistas, que não fala português, “mas um idioma muito semelhante, um parente próximo chamado brasileiro”. A crônica “Eu não falo português” empresta seu nome à antologia que ele publicou no ano passado. Outro texto descreve a “buro-xenofobia” lusitana, “a teia de papéis, assinaturas e carimbos” cujo objetivo não é regularizar a situação dos imigrantes, mas sim o contrário. Álvaro também é autor de “Mau selvagem”, romance policial protagonizado por um imigrante brasileiro que não aceitava desaforo. Os dois livros saíram pela Urutau, editora que atua dos dois lados do Atlântico. Matéria exclusiva para assinantes. Para ter acesso completo, acesse o link da matéria e faça o seu cadastro.
