The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

I would simply not lecture people enduring their third year of bombing about message discipline, while simultaneously claiming dumbass inconsiderate Americans as a Russian psy-op.
I am not however a fucking idiot, so perhaps this is a failure of strategic empathy on my part.

I'm Jewish. I grew up in an observant home. My bar mitzvah was at a Lubavitch shul. My parents were ardent Zionists who donated to the Jewish National Fund and AIPAC as birthday presents.
If *I* can recognize Israel is a genocidal apartheid state and become antizionist, so can you.

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.

We are not serious people. No one even asked us to fight for democracy - they asked us to give up a tenth of a percent of our income and we said that’s too much. We have chosen decline and chosen it with gusto
I don’t know if the bombings and blackouts just made me numb or if I’ve achieved enlightenment but I finally feel free to say everything I think about westerners and not be afraid of how they take it

For hundreds if not thousands of years, there has been a great deal of terror, and only a little justice. A great deal of idolatry, and only a little religion. It shall not always be so.

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Answer: 75% of all American farm workers are Latin American migrants. Yes, the same folks that the party red states support want to deport.
And no, they’re not doing it “to be nice.”

California alone produces a third of all the food America eats. So this is a lie.
But let’s break down the food produced by the red states:
Guess what percent is harvested by people from Latin America?

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.
