I talk about her in my Black abolitionists of NYC walking tour and usually no one has heard of her but she was Rosa Parks on the bus 100 years before that incident.
In 1855 Elizabeth Jennings Graham brought a suit that initiated the desegregation of NYC transit. Raised by politically active parents (her was mother formerly enslaved, her entrepreneur father was awarded a patent in 1821) Ms. Graham was a teacher, organist, & kindergarten founder.

I read this as, Since the start of the WAR:

Since the start of this year, some 600 immigrant children have been placed in government shelters by ICE, according to government data.
1/ THREAD: This year ICE has sent a record 600 immigrant kids into federal shelters, more than in the previous four years combined. Data suggests some are being separated from their families.

For one 15-year-old, it began with a cracked windshield 👇

I'm talking about the late 90s here. I feel like people have forgotten how recent LGBTQ+ access to any kind of social acceptance is

This alliance has been around for a quarter century, at least. Self- identified "radical feminists" ARE often conservative. They've come together with religious groups to support the Iraq war, Palermo Protocols, TVPA...
GAATW warns that some groups are now using anti-trafficking rhetoric to push bans on surrogacy and spread transphobic agendas.

(For example: The NGO who made the recent Epstein PSA is anti-surrogacy). www.opendemocracy.net/en/beyond-tr...
A bizarre new alliance is coming after sexual freedoms
Radical feminists and religious groups teamed up against sex work. Now they’re going after broader reproductive freedoms

When I was a young adult, there were no widely-known role models for LGBTQIA+ people. No adults in my high school even said "gay" out loud. To be called gay was meant as an insult. We had no maps for who we could be. No pictures. No stories. It's almost impossible now to describe what that was like

They/them. "Queer enough" is totally a fake metric ofc but even when you know that it's still frustrating when people don't take you seriously!

Being nonbinary femme is forever being misgendered so forever feeling like everyone around you is talking about someone else

I was at a non- English conference this week and I was alarmed at the number of times I heard “I asked Chat GPT” from people who are in social movements and community work. Are these very important debates about the impact of this tech surfacing beyond English first communities?

If you're an organizer and you don't already assume you're being spied on, you need to take another look at your entire security protocol. I swear SWers still have so much to teach you all
Important to note here that the FBI was able to access the chat because of an informant who was in the chat.

Your Signal chats are only secure if you know and trust the people in them.

But be careful not to spread this in a way that makes people think "Signal is not really encrypted." Unhelpful.
BIG: FBI spied on Signal group chat of immigration activists CourtWatch, classifying them as violent terrorist extremists for quietly sitting in on court cases, as revealed in intel bulletin we obtained & shared w/ @samtlevin.bsky.social @us.theguardian.com. #FOIA www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It has been bad here a long time. Germany borrowed the racism playbook from us, originally. Also, lots of other historical analogies being overlooked by fetishizing the Third Reich in this way. Useful to study Italy in 30s, Franco's Spain, Chile/Pinochet, and even Bosnia/Milosevic during the 90s.

It always saddens me that people want to make the comparison of 1930s Germany and now, but no one ever wants to talk about American chattel slavery influencing 1930s Germany.

“scientific orthodoxy” must be the tortured wildfire metaphor version of “scientific evidence”
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

You guys, comparisons to 1930s Germany have lost their utility. Stop looking for similarities and just be here, see what's now. The police don't have to be the gestapo - American policing is already that bad. American immigration enforcement is already that bad. It doesn't need a comparison.

You're right, I was talking specifically about the United States. Here, federal legal prohibition comes out of two aims: restricting immigration and controlling sexuality, both traceable to the eugenics movement in the early 20th/late 19th centuries

Prohibition of SW is founded in the eugenics-based desire to control all sexuality

“…if Condé can get away with this—and with President Donald Trump sabotaging the National Labor Relations Board, the company appears to be betting that it can—it will send a message to unions and employers across our industry that the foundations of labor law are collapsing.”

The Trump administration is making employers think they can ignore their legal obligations and trample on the rights of workers.

Starbucks can end this today: bargain in good faith, resolve unfair labor practices, and stop the union-busting.
