someone in a nail polish subreddit created a shade that matches the one in this photo and is selling it on etsy so she can afford to buy her boyfriend a bulletproof vest to wear while doing ICE watch at home depot. we live in hell but we are going to fucking win.

People are intent on holding the space. They have a fire pit and a wall of firewood to use on it, keeping each other warm as people filter in and out. Cars idle to drop off another batch of hot coffee or donuts or hand warmers. People don’t really know each other, but there’s an easiness among them.

I visited the memorial site for Renee Good, the anti-ICE activist murdered by ICE agent Jonathan Ross, in Minneapolis tonight.

What I filmed was just documentation of the mountains of fresh flowers, candles, stuffed animals, and handmade signs people had brought. What I saw was community in motion.

I’m not much for religion but if I were, if a line of clergy flew in to freezing weather to line up and oppose me while singing songs of faith, I might be thinking “are we the baddies?”

This is probably the most accurate description.

Someone in their mid-50s today told me that this is the first time he had thought about or been affected by politics. And that guy is actively guarding buildings and his coworkers from ICE.
Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

everyone correctly noting that any time you put Trump in a room with someone charismatic he becomes extremely complimentary until someone reminds him he hates that person, take a bow

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani?

great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

This is a piece of the Mamdani campaign that I think is really underdiscussed—that in a moment of terror and despair, his premise is that standing up against fascism can be joyous.
My wife is Chilean and there are lots of parallels to the referendum on Pinochet where he was defeated. The pro-Pinochet ads were doom and gloom. The anti were upbeat and sunny. There was a movie about it: youtu.be/lt8VayTqQhQ?...
