Every day for the next four years and beyond, we get to wake up and choose to take care of each other, to discern truth from lies and resist that which opposes our values. These choices remain possible for us no matter who is in charge or what is lost. A better path is still out there. Deep breaths.

The next 4 years will be horrific for immigrants.
Please follow the steps below if you are an immigrant or send it to any immigrant you know. I’m afraid anyone who just looks like an immigrant will be caught up in this process.
RT to share far and wide, please!

The stunning downfall of Syria’s longtime leader, Bashar al-Assad, closed a chapter in the country’s decade-long civil war. It also marked the start of an Israeli incursion into the border region. Thousands of Syrians now live in areas at least partly controlled by Israeli forces.
Israel’s Campaign in Syrian Border Area Prompts Fears It Plans to Stay
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s order for Israeli troops to “take over” a buffer zone with Syria upended decades of relative calm along the de facto border between the two countries.

The Tulsa Race Massacre was not committed by an uncontrolled mob but was the result of “a coordinated, military-style attack” by white citizens, the Justice Department said in a report. It was the first time the U.S. government has given an official account of the 1921 massacre of Black residents.
Tulsa Massacre Was a ‘Coordinated, Military-Style Attack,’ Federal Report Says
The Justice Department’s conclusion follows an investigation of the 1921 atrocity in Oklahoma in which up to 300 Black residents were killed.

We’re reading The Ministry for the Future for my bookclub right now and it’s a good depiction of what could happen in the near future with climate change. It also offers an insight about how the global community needs to come together to make a difference.
