One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

This is why we need more Indigenous people in the labour movement. Indigenous people at the helm wouldn’t have stood for a smear campaign full of lies, and violence that escalated to vandalism and continued harassment, against me as an Indigenous woman. More Indigenous unions please.

If you tried to call the store today and no one answered, it’s because I was the only one there and I’ve lost my voice. If I did pick up, all you would have heard is a squeak or faint whispering, and heavy breathing 😂

Staff return to work tomorrow and we’ll be answering the phone again!

Imagine being a bookseller at a bookstore you dont own, squatting in it after you destroyed it through a smear campaign, and then demanding the owner give you all their books. And it all started with clogged toilets… www.the-londoner.co.uk/scarlett-let...
