💔 Alice Wong’s last words: “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”

We can never thank Alice enough for fighting all the good fights and especially all the hard fights. We all learned so much from your brilliance, your courage, and your indefatigable leadership. We will never forget you.

Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collectivity, survival. She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.

This is dope. In the spirit of the BPP free breakfast program, but fancy.

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness.

Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

I have a full day today, but I woke up early to put this edition of my newsletter together because I need you all to have this rundown of what we've been up against this week in Chicago as the federal assault on our city continues. To ignore these developments would be a damning mistake for us all.

After the Trump admin cut LGBTQ+-specific crisis hotline services, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro directed his Department of Human Services to train 988 operators to serve LGBTQ+ callers.

Thank you, Gov. Shapiro, for providing the life-saving resources our community needs. https://bit.ly/3V7Hesk

when the Greeks came to Egypt, they came as students. Plato, Pythagoras, Solon all studied in Kemet.

Timbuktu in Mali had universities when Europe was still burning women for reading.

you don’t know this because
Europe posits itself as the center of world history and civilization.

Star Wars taught me more of a moral code than any Bible verse. The power of Hope, the importance of Friendship and Loyalty, embracing Diversity and Acceptance, the perils of Hubris and Arrogance—and the balance between Light and Dark…

Stay on target, my friends… and May the 4th be with you. Always.

Does anyone have a contact for Ann ? Would love to discuss with her the possibility of partnering with her to publish her cartoons exclusively on @bluesky
Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

With the information about the child in Canada with #H5N1, it would be valuable to gather more details about the individual in Louisiana with severe illness from #H5N1.

Comparing their clinical presentations, hospital courses, and treatments could be helpful as we develop preparedness plans.

Annoying and embarrassing that Biden hasn’t already commuted the sentences of everyone on federal death row, especially after *running* on a pledge to end the death penalty. This really isn’t complicated, you don’t need Congress, you don’t need anyone else’s permission. Get it done.
