Sandra Domínguez was an indigenous lawyer and defender of women who spoke out against the sexual abuses perpetrated by politicians in Oaxaca. She disappeared one week after Sheinbaum took office, and today the press is reporting that her remains were found in Vera Cruz. QEPD. 🌹🕯️

Gentrification isn't a bike lane or a bougie coffeeshop.

It's demoing a $900k duplex in a fancy neighborhood and replacing it with a $3.2M single family home.

Here we have a real world experiment of a single lane Grand handling traffic with ease

When you visit it is very obvious that only one car lane is needed here, even during evening "rush hour"

We can make Grand safe for pedestrians to cross without worrying about congestion. Everyone can win!

When I applied to Medical School at Emory University, I was open about my dedication to Palestine activism, and was told it would never impact my studies. But now, the school has suspended me for that very reason.

I was suspended from Emory over my Palestine activism. I will not let it stop me.
