American Democracy in Distress Ignore Race at Our Peril

Every single day, I look at this quilt, which I created in 2021, hanging in my home studio, wondering why I've felt like I've been YELLING 👏 INTO 👏THE 👏 VOID 👏 ever since. I'm hoarse.

Can you hear me now? CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW??!! #democracy

I don’t care who it is. Mental health issues do not make someone a bigot and it’s not an excuse for dangerous, harmful, or abusive behavior

People have psychotic episodes every day without being a bigot, or engaging in sexually inappropriate and/or abusive behaviors

Hey, y'all! I just wrote a @theactionnetwork.bsky.social letter: Ensure Safe Commutes to DCPS Schools BEFORE reopening after snow.

Ensure Safe Commutes to Schools BEFORE reopening after snow

"We had one hotel publicly refuse to house ICE, which became a big national news story when DHS went after them. That’s a hotel we were targeting, and it was mostly because of our pressure. We had two more hotels temporarily shut down to avoid housing ICE..."

We did predict it. And we were called alarmist.

These are not isolated incidents. For nearly a year, in states across the country, DHS has detained citizens & veterans, and continually violated the due process rights entitled to everyone. This organization is out of control.

Naming someone is not doxxing. They aren’t undercover. They aren’t intelligence agents overseas. This is outrageous - we are supposed to be a free Republic and these people want an authoritarian police state. Lawsuits should be filed & ranking Dems in Congress should act.

Cameras on your car dashboard, cell phone camera maybe on a lavalier around your neck as a body camera, doorway cameras put them everywhere.
If possible, livestream what your are witnessing so that if they take your phone, the truth is already out there.

Canada isn’t waiting on Washington.
PM Mark Carney confirms 12 new trade & security deals across 4 continents and 190,000 jobs created since August—more than the U.S.
Trade diversification is now economic security.

@cherijacobus.bsky.social one of tne few content creators who has the courage to go there. She’s correct in her assessment. At this point if your white MAGA friends give you talking points about deportation and safer , they are dead wrong
It was NEVER about deportation! Bondi says executions will continue until Walz gives DoJ voter rolls

Imagine the anger for crowds like this to come out and protest against the pedophile führer and his fascist authoritarian regime when the temperature in Minneapolis, Minnesota is below ZERO. 😳👇

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

BASH: It feels like we're in the upside down where we have law enforcement and conservatives who are very pro-Second Amendment saying the problem was he had a gun legally

BOVINO: No. The problem is he injected himself, he put himself where he did not need to be

I was trying to explain to a brother in UK how the 2nd amendment is contingent and selective.

alt-text: photo of white man with beard and glasses wearing nurse uniform in front of US flag (Pretti) and photo of Black man with beard and neat locks (Castille) in white collared shirt.
Both smiling.
ICE killing #AlexPretti should remind you of police killing #PhilandoCastille. Both men had concealed weapon permits, did not draw their guns, & were killed in Minn. These homicides are the price of unaccountable policing. These deaths are variations on the same fatal theme.

Racism disproportionately and massively multiplies state violence over generations. That said, we under describe and under diagnose the evil, if we fail to see that White people can & will die when they oppose that evil.

It's really distressing the extent to which in all of this Silverio Villegas González, the first man to be murdered by ICE in the streets, has been almost completely forgotten

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
