The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

I just voted against Kristi Noem’s confirmation.

Our immigration system is in desperate need of reform — but it won’t be fixed by organized acts of cruelty.

We need a DHS Secretary who puts the rule of law and constitution first — not the caprice of the President.

It is *very* important to understand that Jews were never the only target of the 1930s Nazis and they are not the only targets of today’s Nazis. A Nazi salute is not only antisemitic. It is also racist, ableist, and queerphobic.

The USAF removed Tuskegee Airmen & Women Airforce Service Pilots of WWII from basic training curriculum. For 30 years I promised these women I would not let them ever be forgotten again. We worked for decades to have them remembered. The Airmen too. Knowledge is power. 🗃️ www.msn.com/en-us/societ...

Meet Gus 😍
I just realized I haven’t introduced my miniature donkey to Blue Sky. He’s about 36 inches high and he guards the pasture from coyotes. True story.

This is Gus❤️

If you’re not part of the resistance, you’re part of the problem. And stay out of the way of the people that actually care about this country and the human beings in it.

Hard no. Maybe he’ll say it was just a joke but you can’t put the FBI in the hands of someone who thinks this is funny.

Ever wonder what snow in the swamp would look like? This is 5 miles into the Louisiana swamps in the Atchafalaya basin... it's unreal... having lived down there for the first 28 years of my life, we never saw anything like this.

Regardless of your immigration status in the U.S., you have guaranteed rights under the Constitution. Know your rights and assert them.

For my fellow UUs and anyone who cares about social justice...
Join UUSJ via Zoom to hear Rep. Judy Chu, who will advise us in our fight for justice in the federal forum. In the coming years, meeting the moment will require that we both defy autocracy and defend those policies our UU faith values compel us to champion. uusj.salsalabs.org/judychu/inde...
