There's still unfinished business!

#healthnothandcuffs was a public health campaign promoting the end to the war on people using drugs. Unify Rally was in Oct 2019.

I'm remembering this because tonight the folk who supported the campaign celebrate their 10th birthday. Way to go For Purpose!!!

@publicaddress.bsky.social @sanjanah.bsky.social @asherwilsongoldman.bsky.social @joannakidman.bsky.social I wondered if you'd seen this open letter about Substack. Lots of pressure being applied for them to change their policies.
"For many people, Substack is now seen as another Nazi bar. It’s not a space created for Nazis, but it’s a space that welcomes them, and tells them they have as much right to be here as anyone else."

On open letter to Substack co-founder Hamish McKenzie
