I am from the theater. Just this week I started a Shakespeare unit with 9 and 10 year olds. One of my most salient points is how something 400 years old can still speak to us, move us and bind us. We are made to survive hard times.

The people united will never be defeated. ✊🏼

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

The arrest of Don Lemon is textbook fascism—a brazen attempt to silence reporting on a criminal regime. Stand up for Don, because our rights stand and fall with those of courageous journalists throughout this country.

Good for the NBPA! More high profile, powerful organizations and individuals need to step up like this.
The National Basketball Players Association releases a statement following the Trump regime’s murders of Alex Pretti and Renee Good, saying that NBA players “can no longer remain silent.”

The NBPA is standing up for free speech, civil liberties, and the people of Minnesota demanding justice.

Creators and commentators are reporting their Alex Pretti videos are being taken down on multiple platforms. Download those videos while you can folks.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

This is who they shot today. Who will it be tomorrow and who knows how we can stop it? Is America great now?

Sympathies to all who knew Alex, his family and to the good people of Minnesota. Absolutely tragic.
Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin.

Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

A frightening byproduct of professional activism is that average people think they need to be certain, brave, and an expert in order to go do something. You don't. Do it unsure. Do it scared. Do it without having read all the books. Showing up for your community doesn't require a degree.

“the Feds are supposed to be fighting to protect your civil rights, not to take them away.” Pritzker
Pritzker: The Insurrection Act is designed for circumstances where your rights can’t be protected by local authorities

This is exactly the opposite.

Your civil rights are being infringed upon by CBP and ICE, and then they want to call in troops claiming that they’re protecting CBP and ICE.
