I will say this very gently: it is critical that street protest happen right now in the US, AND.
When you are exhorting people to protest, do not assume that you know their circumstances or their capacity.
Do not assume you know all their circumstances even if they have shared *some* of them.

Still not over Uncle Sam mocking the critique of Black music and culture as uncivilized and ghetto and then doubling down by saying America appreciates calm and peace, the exact moment Kendrick turned the whole thing around.
And with the white supremacist in chief in attendance? Masterful.

Forty acres and a mule, a Black Uncle Sam, and a declaration that folks be humble all draped in red white and blue?
Goddamn.
Goddamn.
Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

A Black community chased nazis away from their neighborhood.
While we applaud that community, I’m wondering why more of these hateful displays aren’t met with the same energy?
Why is it up to marginalized communities to show the only way to deal with hate is to drive it out, LITERALLY?

This moment continues to feel like February 2020 for fascism: smart people who pay attention are freaking out, your average sea cucumber-like American is either totally unaware or blithely assuming everything will Be Fine.

Hospital protests have begun for hospitals that are complying with an executive order banning gender affirming care.
The order does NOT have the force of law, but some hospital systems are too scared of trump to defend trans kids in their care.
This one at UVA Hospital.

2) This denies medically-necessary transition-related care (for kids *and* young adults) as defined by § 38.2-3449.1 of the Code of Virginia.

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT CRASH OUT.
Folks are relying on you to be overstimulated, overwhelmed, & overcome so you won't resist.
Take breaks,

Yes, let's talk boycotting,
AND
how we will support our neighbors who rely on the places we are boycotting so they won't have to support them either,
how we will build sustainable support networks & channels,
& how we will be responsive to needs.
As we support each other, we empower each other.
