Sitting here with an advance copy of this and it is hard to imagine a more timely book!

I think this book from @akpress.org/edited by @mskellymhayes.bsky.social will save lives, and I encourage you all to preorder and nudge your local library about it. #BookSky

Authoritarianism is rising. Mass deportations, rigged courts, civil rights rollbacks.

We shouldn't need a Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, but here we are. Still underpaid. Still undervalued.

66 cents on the dollar means we lose thousands every year, for doing the same job.

Over a lifetime? That’s hundreds of thousands gone.

Pay Black women. Period.

The point is cruelty & discrimination.

Shame and denial kept these atrocities out of our history books:

•Trail of Tears
•Japanese American concentration camps
•Tulsa Massacre
•MOVE bombing
•Forced sterilization of Native women

Books that confront systems, not just symptoms:

Brownshirt ICE rolled up to my local Home Depot today and got the F-off treatment.

Shoutout to this woman because this is exactly how it’s done. No badge, face covered = F*ck all the way off.

📌 It’s on us citizens to stand up for our vulnerable brothers and sisters.

Time for new blood
Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

Thirty lonely but beautiful actions you can take right now which probably won't magically catalyze a mass movement against Trump but that are still wildly important
Why? Because others will see you do them, and it will make it easier for them to take their own (slightly less lonely but equally beautiful) action by your side
