I am intentional about creating space for real interrogation in an effort to build inclusive, compassionate community. I will not invest in relationship with people who are more invested in trying to have power over others by dehumanizing, lying, and perpetuating systemic inequities.
❤️👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Period.

Everyone just calm down and FOCUS. His blueprint is chaos and foolery. They want to divide and exhaust us. We will not give in to hopelessness.

Invest your energy wisely. We know his actions are cruel, wrong, & likely illegal.

We need leveraged/smart action

- Pick a focus
- Organize
- Mobilize

Senator @maziehirono.bsky.social has made it a habit for years to ask this question of every nominee - man or woman - at their confirmation hearing. When Hirono, who sits on the Senate Armed Svcs Committee, asks this question of DOD Secy nominee Peter Hegseth, the answer will be disqualifying.

Our 39th president was the epitome of a servant leader. He was a principled man who was no stranger to taking courageous stances. Job well done sir. At 100 yrs old, you can now rest in peace with your wife and life partner. Thank you. 🙏🏾
Please remember that President Carter appointed more minorities and women to the bench than all previous presidents combined. He was the first President to embrace the concept of bringing racial diversity to the federal bench. A key aspect of his legacy.

"You have to never get old, never be rude, never show off, never be selfish...” ~America Ferrera

Women, it's time to release the Invisible Mental Load:

Fear
Guilt
Doubt
Worry
Shame

Talk to someone rather than be crushed by the silence.

This is much more sad reflection of our culture, systemic failure, and education than his factual poor character.
As we brace for the transition-inauguration media coverage of the second Trump administration, a Twitter/X thread from July 2024 about how "normalization" is justified ... Starts in next reply.

This! Fire grows with oxygen, so smother the maga fire by redirecting your energy, passion, and skills toward building community, strategic organizing, and overwhelming mobilization. We have 2yrs for federal opportunity for change but you will have local opportunities now.
I don't have energy to be doom obsessed with the Tr*mp Administration's every move. We knew he was going to pick awful people to fill his cabinet. It's happening just the way we said it would.

I have to focus on how to build community and resistance within my power while this all unfolds.

When the people don't know history. I suggest reading The Sum of Us by Heather McGhee.
The goal has has always been a return to Plessy v. Ferguson - but now there’s not even an attempt at the presumption of “equal.”

When schools separate or secede from an existing district to form a new one, they end up far whiter. Since Brown, the task has always been to find ways to re-segregate.

Elon Musk says Americans must suffer the "hardship" of $2 trillion in cuts to public spending, while he still gets tax cuts, government contracts, and corporate welfare.

No wonder I got a little angry talking about it. youtu.be/KXzkNKVLy9g?...

I spent my 20s and 30s unaware of my numbness because I'd been groomed to "keep it pushin' and power through."

Your brain eventually flips the switch to numb in an effort to protect you from yourself.

That results in eroded:

- Health
- Happiness
- Self-worth
- Compassion
