Each week, as Germany gallops further to the right, you see another prominent voice raising the alarm. This time it is Tupoka Ogette, probably the country's leading anti-racism activist, expressing her fears about bringing up black children in today's Germany.

A Black mom who had cancer had to undergo a full Hysterectomy was out of work and fell behind on bills. She needs help catching up. Let’s each give $1 so she reaches her goal. We’ve helped 175 people so far, let’s keep going.

One of the hidden impacts of the shutdown is on schools on reservations. Most school districts rely on local taxes, but schools on federal land, like reservations or military bases, rely on federal funding.
The shutdown is hurting schools whose budgets are mostly federal money - ICT
Federal money makes up only a small part of most school budgets in the U.S. But at Chinle Unified School District half of the revenue comes from a single federal program, called Impact Aid.

Y’all keep doing this thing where you’re trying to “expand” the base of concern so that people can address racism by …avoiding any actual discussion of racism.

One of the darkest parts of this timeline is knowing it is Bovino's obsession with visibility that activated most people. Without the propaganda ops, ICE/ERO could have kept going under the surface as they are. Terrain is different now. How many CBP will remain + will they continue w/ same tactics?
