Snow stains under black boots
Blood against cold sky.

Morning breaks with her son’s heart
Bullets shatter bone.

No work. no schools. No
Shopping. One hundred thousand
Voices fill the gap.

Don Lemon targeted
Arrested for seeing the
Wolf in sheep’s clothing.

A Willingness To Stand Without Applause

Truth to power shouts
“This system is broken” as
It insists it’s not

Banking In The Upside Down World

Five-year-old boy held
In escrow to underwrite his
Father’s kidnapping.

Pixels instead of
Leaflets. Truth lives on. Justice

It’s really difficult & disorienting but the feds hit LA extremely hard today. There were kidnappings all over & reported cluster raids in Chinatown, East LA, Ktown. This list shows to 1130 AM but they haven’t stopped all day

Just because the media attention stopped doesn’t mean the abductions have

For The Protesters Making History

Neighbors’ whistles scream
Injustices called out, marked
Breaths’ vapor rises

To witness Minnesota
Pen writes resistance

Today, the 81st anniversary of Auschwitz's liberation, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, when the last survivors are asking us to "become my witness," I answer yes. Past shadows prowl in Minnesota.

Today we remember the Holocaust, not as distant history, but as a warning.

It was made possible by propaganda, scapegoating, and the acceptance of injustice.
By institutions not resisting.

We must remain vigilant — especially when familiar patterns begin to reappear.

Never again. Hold the Line.

Today is the 81st anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz Holocaust Remembrance Day. One of the great honors of my life was bearing witness to the stories of the survivors.
