Queer, disabled, learning to be anti-racist. Converting to Judaism b/c I love the teaching that preserving life is the greatest moral imperative—and that includes Palestinian lives. I want everyone to have food, healthcare, safety, freedom, and dignity.

Every time someone jumps on socials and says there is no point to mass protest days and visible reaction in the streets, share this chart with them. The approval ratings are tanking not just because they're doing bad things but also because protestors won't let people forget it either.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The teenager told officers he was a U.S. citizen, but an officer broke the car’s driver’s side window and detained him. In a video, the boy can be heard telling an officer that he is a citizen, to which the officer replies, “Get out of the car” and “I don’t care.”

A federal judge just shut down the IRS–ICE pipeline.

This wasn’t enforcement. It was a test to see how far private data could be pushed into surveillance.
The appeal is coming. And systems like this never stop at one group.
