Hey #booksky : there seems to be a need for inspiring stories of resistance right now. I wrote a book about how diverse, multi-racial communities in rural Georgia survived and resisted some of the most brutal regimes imaginable for over 300 years. Sound interesting? Order here: www.oooabooks.org

Mark Bray and his family were getting onboard a plane to Europe to escape these threats when suddenly their tickets were canceled. WATCH THIS! Solidarity with Mark and his family ❤️

I’ve received multiple death threats + doxing (including my home address) directly following harassment from Turning Point USA, Jack Posobiec, Andy NGO, + Fox News which called me an antifa ‘financier.’

I have been forced to move my classes online.

If journalists want to talk, DM me or reply here.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Since Trump has decalred antifascism to be terrorism, I'm donating $100 to the most important antifascist organization I know, One People's Project. They need our help! WILL YOU DONATE?

If we can't write singalongs about dead Nazis, what's the point of "free speech"?

Every time you apologize or "walk back" an antifascist statement, you allow fascism to advance forward.

We've all read articles about developing healthy habits. Unhealthy habits develop the same way. It's hard the first time, but it gets easier the more you do it

Self-censorship gets easier too

Fuck Charlie Kirk. Fuck Trump. Fuck every single coward who makes excuses for what's happening

Do Not Give In To These Fucking People

Do not self censor. Do not let them scare you

Or let them scare you, but do the damn thing anyway

Fuck Charlie Kirk. Fuck Trump. Fuck anyone who tries to strip us of our God-given right to say those things

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site

As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

Seeing so many liberals rally behind the memory of Trump's own personal Baldur von Schirach underscores the dangers of liberalism. Liberals are going to get a lot of people killed by willingly handing us over to fascist forces merely because it would be impolite to refuse.

We are at the point in the honoring-Charlie-Kirk's-memory cycle when faculty are being fired for posting, without comment, Charlie Kirk's words. At the behest of politicians sworn to uphold the first amendment, and in public institutions covered by first amendment protections.

Senator Marsha Blackburn tagging a public university for a facebook post where a professor share's Kirk's comments saying gun deaths are worth it.

So-called leftist "influencers" who stare down their selfie camera and lecture "followers" about "the struggle" gross me out. Knowledge and understanding come from community conversation, not individual knowitallitude. Organizing a reading group at the library beats proselytizing online every time.

“Eddie Carvery fights for people who lost their homes, but he’ll never be homeless. Just like the people of [Palestine] and the Indigenous peoples of the Northern Hemisphere — all of whom have faced home demolitions — Eddie’s home is in the struggle against colonial violence and displacement.”
