We remember the tragedies of the past and recommit to fighting for justice in the present. Nidoto Nai Yoni: Let it not happen again.

Heroism after Hurricane Helene:

➡️ Partnership for Appalachian Girls’ Education (PAGE) sent out care packages even as their own offices were destroyed by flooding.

➡️ PODER Emma set up a bilingual phone bank to provide translation support for aid workers throughout NC.

So many more stories.

"Politics is personal. That, however, doesn’t mean it’s ideological. It means that one cares about what she or he is doing, what he or she is writing....

Photographers direct the eye toward a particular object. We who write, one hopes, are directing the heart and the soul."

This is huge: The Trans Justice Funding Project, a fund at Tides Foundation, is adding 2 more grant cycles to better resource trans liberation.

They're launching big changes to make it easier to apply for funding and get funds out faster.

Proud to partner with TJFP as they meet this moment.
