Today we spent time with community members cleaning the Woodland Plantation historic marker along with trash surrounding it.

While it doesn’t tell the whole story, this sign holds space for descendants of enslaved people who live adjacent to the historic sites that affected their ancestors.

#DianaHarshbarger is a disgusting racist. That was not even a #dogwhistle that was loud and clear straight off the plantation. It is like she has fantasized about denigrating Black people her whole life. What an abhorrent person. She makes Jesus sad. She aint worth a second of #AlGreen 's time.

Troy Carter is 100 percent right on this.
Let me be clear: the so-called SAVE Act is not about security. It is not about election integrity. It is about suppression — pure and simple. This bill is a modern-day poll tax cloaked in patriotic rhetoric, and it represents one of the most dangerous assaults on the right to vote in a generation.

What took one income in 1950 now takes three.
A house that cost 2 years of wages now costs 10.

Trump's Chaos is Our Moment: Rebuilding America from the Ashes
Trump is accelerating democracy’s decline—he’s also exposing institutions hollowed out by privatization and corporate capture. Our task isn’t just to save what’s left; it’s to build something better.

older, early shopping centers often included landscaping and things like tree shaded walkways but by the 80s it was just sizzling hot asphalt & plastic facades churned out as fast as they can Suggesting regulations for added green space for drainage cooling is clearly communism tho right?

" #ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed." This is what #conservatives voted for. #maga #republicans www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...
Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained
Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

#Columbia still doing what always does: supporting #fascism, #genocide, & #authoritarians; crushing any #resistance to power. Funny they use "stopping antisemitism" as a cover for brutalizing ALL discourse but avoid the thousands of Jewish people who were protesting the genocide in #Palestine #Nazis

They're literally going to HELP them kill us. There's no words sufficient. These people should be drummed out of office NOW.
