Her name was Diana. She was 23 years old and 7 months pregnant.

Russia murdered her today in an attack on the maternity hospital in Kamyanske.

“There is a vast chasm between the concept of freedom inscribed on paper and the reality of freedom in our lives.” Revisit Jelani Cobb‘s piece, from 2020, on Juneteenth and the meaning of freedom.
Juneteenth and the Meaning of Freedom
Emancipation is a marker of progress for white Americans, not black ones.

Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

They’re banking on you believing the lies. Social media, news, even some politicians—they’re all pushing racist disinformation to divide and distract us. Don’t take the bait.

📢 Think before you share. Fact-check everything. The truth is a weapon—use it. #SOTU #TogetherWeFight #ApathyIsNotAnOption

Just ordered a bunch of heirloom apple trees to pick up this spring! Super excited to get these planted and hopefully enjoy some heirloom apples in a couple years! 🌱

We were sent this pic of where farm workers pruning apple trees in Wolcott NY. Temps were 25°, but it felt like 4°. The wind was so strong that some crews left early, as they didn't feel safe on their ladders. Workers shared that after 2 hrs, their legs felt numb. #WeFeedYou

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.

It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next.

IT IS A COUP
This is what should be on every front page in 150 point banner headlines. All I have is this Substack but I lay it beneath your feet and pray to a higher power that I'm wrong.

There should be some dread weighing heavily on you if you are upholding injustice, oppressing the poor and marginalized, abusing power, or disregarding the dignity of all people. The ‘Shadow’ is but a small and passing thing — where will you be standing when it’s gone?

Bold choice to be pushing air travel after the week that just happened.
Trump wants to halt the high-speed rail project that would cut travel time between SF and LA from 9 hours to under 3 hours.

From the oval office here just said: "We're going to start a big investigation on that.. it wasn't even necessary, I would have said, you don't buy it. You take an airplane.”

Fight, rest, eat. Repeat.
Friends, I’d be so grateful for some love to this piece I wrote for The Contrarian! A read, a like over on the piece, and a share 🙏💜💜

It’s all about feeding our national grief with comfort food (and restoring ourselves for the fight).

As Jesus famously said, Love thy neighbor a bit less than thyself
I mean yes, there is such a concept in Christianity. It appears quite notably in the letters of Paul, for instance, where it’s a concept he *relentlessly* argues against, and in the Gospel where it’s a concept Jesus very much repeatedly scorns. So it is technically in there!
