Being a person with deadly, incurable cancer who is nonetheless still alive for an indefinite timeframe gives me an interesting metaphor that helps me deal with things like large-scale corruption in government or commerce.

Bear with me for a second while I try to explain.

Hey guys- White nationalists have helped a white woman in Minnesota raise $300k after she was filmed calling a five-year-old Black child the n-word.

The local NAACP chapter is fundraising for the boy and his family to get legal help. The least we could do is out-fundraise the nazis.

Recently I taught on the need for radical imagination in this current moment.

Imagination is Politucal

Imagination is a powerful tool for shaping our understanding of the world and driving political action. Jesse Jackson once said, “Hope and imagination are weapons of survival”

Authoritarian rule is characterized by concentrated power in the hands of a single person or a small group, with minimal to no input from the people. It's often marked by political repression, suppression of dissent, and the use of force to maintain control

Black folks have always lived under this

Pope Francis’s "Urbi et Orbi" Easter speech:

“How much contempt is stirred up at times towards the vulnerable, the marginalized and migrants...I appeal to all those in positions of political responsibility in our world not to yield to the logic of fear which only leads to isolation from others.”

For people in the journalism business, and for people in general, *this* is the killer detail in latest Hegseth-dereliction-of-duty report:

That *four* people on the call were willing to talk about it!

Congrats to the reporters. And most obvious dead-man-walking of cabinet members perhaps ever.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

🚨A U.S. born citizen was arrested in Florida for entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” His mother and a community advocate showed his birth certificate during a hearing in Leon County. The judge said she had no authority to release him.

No, you can't just remove a university's tax-exempt status because you disagree with it politically -- Trump's move on Harvard will be challenged in court. And struck down.

But sure, tell me more about how right-wingers are defenders of the First Amendment.

Correct.
Just a reminder: having a functional moral compass right now is going to make you feel bad all the time; don’t mistakenly hate yourself for that.

I can not say this enough. There is no safety in fascism. Do not count on any institution to hold.

Count on people power to get us through. Count on love and community to help us make it to the other side of this moment in time

We talk about courage being contagious. It is.

As scared as we've been, things are getting scarier. Which is when it's hardest to be courageous, because courage isn't fearlessness, it's being scared but doing the right thing any way.

Hold the line & stand with each other. We're who's saving us.
If you let the executive deport people to a foreign gulag just by pronouncing the word “terrorism,” then expect to be called a “terrorist” soon yourself.

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.
