These farm workers are preparing for the strawberry harvest. They're weeding & removing the runners (leafless stems) that can steal nutrients from the plants. This step will also make it easier for workers to move efficiently and harvest more during the harvest season. #WeFeedYou

I just tried to phone in a book order to DreamHaven & spoke to Greg, he's swamped with orders (book people are THE BEST) but the website's still down. If you're local and web-savvy and available to work with them to address the shop's web woes, give them a call—they could use some help!

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.
