Incarceration of women must be examined. The carceral system is beyond flawed. This is a Feminist issue, and a world issue.

‘Bad girls’ is how society labels women in prison. But what if that label is a lie? | Sabrina Mahtani
Incarceration should be a last resort, yet this broken and brutal system punishes marginalised women, most of whom are inside for non-violent crimes

Phang: It just underscores how much this Trump administration has destroyed any concept of public safety — that federal cases cannot be prosecuted in the state of New Jersey because Alina Haba refuses to actually step away from this bullshit.

My family buys its health insurance through the ACA exchange. Our premium is $1700 a month. On January 1 it jumps to $3000.
That feels pretty free market to me. These insurance companies can charge us whatever the f*ck they want…

Today is World AIDS day. Trump has refused to participate and ordered federal employees to not post anything commemorating the fight against the deadly disease.

U.S., Trump administration won't commemorate World AIDS Day this year
The U.S. will not commemorate World AIDS Day this year. This action, along with recent federal funding cuts, could contribute to a resurgence of HIV/AIDS.

ICE raids are cruel, inhumane, and do nothing to serve public safety.
My responsibility is to be the mayor to each and every person that calls this city their home. That includes millions of immigrants— of which I am one.

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

Years of antipalestinian, nationalistic propaganda closed off whatever was left of Israel's basic humanity. Palestinians have been held hostage by Hamas and by the propagandized IDF and nationalistic fervor. Palestinians deserve a safe place to live, a two state solution. People are not animals.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
