You think you don’t matter because you’re not rich? That’s exactly why this works. Political donors expect calls from lobbyists, not from nurses and teachers in their own community.

Breonna Taylor should still be here today. Her life mattered.
Trump’s DOJ has asked that an officer charged in her murder spend just one day in jail. One day. This is atrocious—it is what injustice and systemic racism looks like.

Fun fact to remember: the actual Luddites weren’t *ignorant*. They weren’t against all technology.
They were skilled craftspeople - expert weavers - who recognized the machine looms as a lower-quality output than what they could make, and who rebelled against their replacement with soulless slop.

Tip I learned years ago from a longtime organizer who is also an attorney:
If you are not sure if a person approaching you is a cop, and you do not feel safe, drive to the nearest *fire department* and call 911 and tell them (don't ask) that you're stopping for the cop at a FD.
Here's why.

It is an ICE agent taking an axe to the car window of an immigrant in New Bedford, MA. Not far from where I sit now. An immigrant with no criminal record was abducted by this smiling man.
