Fellow whites,
It's on us to dismantle white supremacy. After the election, we see how badly we failed. Last year, I put out a blog series on antiracism basics. Read, share, maybe we can help white people see there's nothing to be scared of racial equity.

Some day ICE agents are going to have to defend themselves, whether in this life, or the next. I suspect it won't go well for them...They do have a chance still, to walk away from this choice they've made...

I visited the King County Sexual Assault Resource Center today to hear about how they'll use funding I secured to continue supporting survivors.
Trump tried to slash funding to prevent violence against women—but I fought tooth and nail & we secured RECORD funding instead.

UCLA just fired me—the only administrator tasked with fighting racism—over posts about Charlie Kirk.
My posts drew attention only b/c I'm a "DEI" worker;
to be clear, the same demographic hurling death threats at me were also complaining to UCLA.
UCLA ultimately capitulated and terminated me.

No joke. President Trump wants to invade and occupy Greenland—a territory of Denmark—because Denmark didn’t award him the Nobel Peace Prize. That’s the reason.
This is what White America chose.

So, I see a lot of articles online which I assume are clickbait, talking about volcanoes erupting in the PNW. I can assure you, this is not true. Unless you are an ICE agent, then yes, the volcanoes are erupting daily. The air is filled with poisonous gasses, so you should definitely stay home!
