Tens of thousands marched through Midtown Manhattan and the local paper of record appears to have ignored it. Way to go, @nytimes.com

And I was with you!

Organizers say 25,000 marched in Midtown Manhattan today to #MakeBillionairesPay

By the way, that's Kathmandu at sunrise in my profile pic.

My conversation with Jane Hirshfield yesterday got very real. Thanks so much to Jane, and to everyone at @haymarketbooks.org for making it possible, especially John McDonald. The recording is available below on Haymarket's YouTube channel.

Take good care, everyone. 🙏🏻

My latest for @thenation.com is an interview with veteran Nepali journalist Kunda Dixit about the stunning turn of events there in the past week. Did Nepal just have a revolution?

I profiled the great poet & eco-advocate Jane Hirshfield in a feature for @thenation.com, now included in my book Learning to Live in the Dark.

Tomorrow, 9/16, at 5pm ET, Jane joins me in conversation about "faith, humanism, and radical solidarity in a time of catastrophe." RSVP below...

This is good, and needs to be said. I'm glad they published it. (though it may be time to reconsider the name of the magazine).

Welcome to fossil fascism.

I had a deep and wide-ranging conversation with XR Radio @xrglobal.bsky.social about climate + fascism and my book Learning to Live in Dark: Essays in a Time of Catastrophe (@haymarketbooks.org). Big thanks to hosts Matthew Kearney & Alycee Lane.

First, stop thinking like a "climate movement."

wondered for years if there's literally anything that could happen that could dislodge some people's weird personal resentments from the center of their political analysis. pretty sure the answer is no. some people's diaries from the camps will be about what nouns other leftists should've used most

I thought the whole point of UChicago's whole right-wing friendly "free speech university" schtick was that it would keep them from being attacked by Republican administrations the way the Ivies are. Turns out it doesn't matter. www.insidehighered.com/news/busines...

Armed federal officers dressed for war in neck gaiters showing up to the press conference of a political opponent. This is America under Trump. You either resist it, or you lose your nation.

Wells Fargo has done more to advance Trump’s agenda than any other Wall Street bank.

This week, we're holding them accountable during our national day of action.

No showers, sleeping on concrete floors: The “squalid” conditions for immigrants in NYC

Comrades of mine in NYC were part of this. Wish I'd been there. We need more of this kind of righteous action. Much more.

"“If this volume just grows even more, we simply have a societal situation that is not bearable anymore because it is just too much risk that is no longer covered,” Thallinger told CNBC..."

whatever politicians pretend to believe about climate, this is what they know

Yeah the smoke has been dimming the sun in eastern MA for days now, and nobody seems to notice, as if this is "normal" now. It's not normal. Or rather, it's normal for a rapidly heating, burning planet. Which is the most abnormal thing in human history.

Update: L.A.’s ginormous Eland solar + storage project is now fully operational. My colleague @hayleysmith.bsky.social was there for the ribbon-cutting: www.latimes.com/environment/...

‘Israel has built the most efficient starvation machine you can imagine. So while it’s always shocking to see people being starved, no one should act surprised. All the information has been out in the open since early 2024.’

And to cap it off, we were joined in jail (literally the same cell) by the brave souls from @[email protected] who had just shut down Schumer and Gillibrand's offices demanding "Let Gaza Live." There was real solidarity in that jail cell.

Working class people of color from the Gulf South directly confronting fossil capital.

Organized by Texas Campaign for the Environment, @planetoverprofit.org, & national @stopmoneypipeline.bsky.social coalition, it was one of the most powerful actions I've been a part of in a long time.
