Many of us donate labor to our institutions (which don't appreciate it) for zine librarianship. The labor is for our communities, not the institutions. The work is some of our activism for which we don't need to be paid. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

friendly reminder that socialist mayors governed Milwaukee for nearly half a century from 1910-1960
during this time Milwaukee achieved milestones such as being the healthiest, safest, and best-governed city in America

States like Mississippi and Alabama have been fully abandoned by the DNC so this was folks on the ground doing the work. If y'all would stop shitting on the South maybe your little blue party could have a solid base there.
BREAKING: Democrats just broke the GOP supermajority in the Mississippi Senate!
In a stunning victory, Democrats gained seats in court-ordered special elections and will now head to Jackson to represent and fight on behalf of their constituents.

City of Milwaukee workers are asking for 4% raise after years of inflation and stagnant wages, and we're telling City Hall to heed their demands. Can you sign on and send a letter to city leaders telling them to do the right thing?
Tell City Hall: These workers are only asking for what is fair!

If we put half as much resources into metadata and cataloging as we do into dumb AI stuff, we’d way better off in terms of the info/data ecosystem
Panel at #Crossref2025 wonders if metadata has an image problem. Bianca Kramer says the word metadata not used in the Barcelona Declaration. Mariángela Napoli thinks perception of metadata is something too technical. Kazuhiro Hayashi describes metadata as "the unsung hero". Time for a rebrand ;)

I'm so sick of discourse from supposed allies about where trans people went wrong.
Where we "went wrong" is that billionaires spent unimaginably large sums to attack us repeatedly and major media outlets have spent a decade piling on.

This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.

Welcome to the Sanford Berman website devoted to the work of librarian Sanford Berman who created an innovative, radical and inclusive catalog which used terms we use when looking for information instead of the 19th century language of the Library of Congress Subject Headings. Berman worked for the Hennepin County library from 1973 until 1999. Sandy continues to create subject headings and works for political and social justice.
