Things are escalating. Russia says it’s lifting its moratorium on medium to short-range missiles—responding to U.S. Typhons in the Philippines & in NATO countries. The U.S. pulled out of the INF (1987) Treaty in 2019. This is beyond rhetoric.

Last night I sang both the National Anthem and the Black National Anthem at the @tndems 3-Star Dinner.
Because freedom songs don’t stop at the stage, they echo through generations.
We sing. We vote. We organize. We raise hell.
Let’s stay in good trouble and make our ancestors proud.

Trump’s back with the same racist lies, dehumanizing immigrants, and threatening birthright citizenship. Watch @katiephang.bsky.social as she breaks it down in today’s Wait a Damn Minute.

The TN State House introduced House Joint Resolution 7 which defines a "person" to include “every human being from fertilization to natural death.” Tennessee law currently states that “life begins at the moment of conception”, but HJR 7 would enshrine that definition in the state constitution.

As we observe #BlackHistoryMonth, we want to lift up the Black women who built the movement for reproductive justice from the ground up, and those who continue to lead the charge in the fight for maternal health equity. Check out the new blog post at ow.ly/fwWt50UTpTO

ACTION - Call Congress, ask for your Representative and let them know that you are AGAINST this freeze. Call back and ask for your Senators.
The Office of Management and Budget should not approve this.
Please pass this on. And thank you to @mspackyetti for this graphic.

FYI: We will survive this because our ancestors have survived similar and/or worse.

We will work together.

But today, we can be sad and angry.

It’s ok - but we can’t let fear cripple us. We have to take care of each other.
