Folks I know things are impossible right now. I just want you all to know that I am also at one with the dung beetle within. We will push that ball of shit together. @daniellemoodie.bsky.social @wajali.bsky.social

@rolandsmartin.bsky.social 🪷🪷🪷did a great interview with @electiontruthalliance.org's Nathan Taylor gives a sobering analysis of Nevada's "voting irregularities" & "Putin's Tails" of the 2024 elections. www.youtube.com/watch?v=rafL...

It is such a tragedy that 10 million voters voted for Kamala Harris but their votes weren't counted. I feel those who did not fight against voter suppression chose this for America. See @gregpalast.bsky.social's documentary. youtu.be/P_XdtAQXnGE?...

Newman told The Bulwark, "People are becoming more emboldened to cross Trump as his power wanes. The shared goal of the corporate overlords and ICE is to make people feel powerless, and these actions are a way of resisting that sense of powerlessness."

Chris Newman, general counsel for the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON), doesn't see these boycotts letting up anytime soon.

Carrasquillo reports, "There's also speculation that AT&T data could have been used by DHS to target people during the shocking raid at the 7500 South Shore Drive residential building raid in Chicago."

Carrasquillo adds, "But that's not the end of their troubles: Bold and unpredictable protests are beginning to disrupt retail operations across the country…. For months now, Home Depot has been singled out for its role as a staging ground in the Trump deportation regime."

Please call the guy the January 6th pipe bomber. Fox is calling him the "January 5th bomber" because he planted the bombs the night before but really because they don't want to mention 1/6 as a bad day.

Every day I wake up and I hear the silence of the Republicans. Their silence is overwhelming. Never forget those Republicans who are doing this & letting this happen. This could we ended tomorrow if the Republicans had had one vertebrae in their spines.

Happening in America. Representatives can't access those who have been detained. No one can track where kidnapped kids or folks are being held. The video records of these camps are being erased. See how they treat American politicians, asking questions, what are they doing to these poor people?

"The home-improvement chain [Home Depot] now faces the prospect of a national boycott." Boycotts work folks. Don't forget the power of each of your dollars!

"Home Depot is possibly the most visible case after the company’s parking lots became a familiar setting for shocking viral clips and local news segments depicting federal agents' aggressive attempts to apprehend unsuspecting day laborers.

"Companies that have collaborated with immigration enforcement agencies in various ways to aid Trump's mass deportation initiative — whether through allowing ICE to raid their parking lots ... or a variety of other actions — are starting to feel the rumblings of a consumer revolt...

The pie looks delicious. I wish we could share pie with everyone. A little bit of pie and community goes a long way. Folks need pie, TLC and compassion. www.youtube.com/shorts/MnO8h...

Alice Miller writes about the parenting that led to the complicity of the majority of Germans. There were no protests. There wasn't resistance. That is why it is important to act now.

The world’s second biggest polluter, the US, was near the bottom, but 74% of its citizens still said its government should do more...

It wasn't Hitler or Himmler who kidnapped me, beat me, & shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, and the neighbor who were given uniforms & then believed they were the master race." Karl Stojka, Auschwitz survivor 😭😭😭

160 years ago, the 13th Amendment was ratified, ending slavery. But that amendment came with a sinister loophole: a Slavery Clause that allowed for slavery “as punishment for crime.” We need to pass @repnikema.bsky.social’s and my Abolition Amendment to #EndTheException once and for all!

Side note: The NCNW produced three more cookbooks in the 1990s: The Black Family Reunion Cookbook, The Black Family Dinner Quilt Cookbook and Celebrating Our Mothers’ Kitchens. They preserve African American culinary traditions and celebrate the strength and values of Black families.

NCNW programs prioritize four critical issues: education, with a special focus on STEM and early childhood literacy; educating women about health issues; encouraging entrepreneurship, financial literacy and job training; and advocating for sound public policy, voting rights and social change. /end

The NCNW functions as an “organization of organizations,” serving as a unifying force for 37 national affiliate groups and more than 200 community-based sections, reaching nearly four million women. The organization focuses on the unique challenges Black women face due to both sexism and racism. /6

The NCNW established its national headquarters in Washington, D.C. in 1942. In 1990, it moved to the Dorothy I. Height Building, which is situated between the White House and the U.S. Capitol. The former headquarters, the Mary McLeod Bethune Council House, is now a National Historic Site. /5

Dr. Dorothy Height served as NCNW’s president from 1957 to 1997 and expanded the scope of its mission. Under her leadership, NCNW played a significant role in the Civil Rights Movement, raising funds for the Montgomery bus boycott and developing programs to fight poverty in the rural South. /4

An early project of the NCNW was to assemble a cookbook that captured African American culture and furthered the cause of integration. The result was the Historical Cookbook of the American Negro (1958), which amplified heritage recipes with historical context to uplift Black women and families. /3

Bethune established the NCNW to unite Black women’s groups and address Black women’s concerns that were often ignored. In the midst of the Great Depression, NCNW aimed to tackle issues such as the inequality, housing discrimination and healthcare disparities that African American women faced. /2

#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 1935: Educator and activist Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune founds the National Council of Negro Women. The organization advocates for and empowers women of African descent, their families and communities, promoting education, entrepreneurship and civic engagement. /1

And the Republicans could end this today if they wanted to, if the had the guts to stand up for what is right.

You are deep in the journey & doing the work. Thank you for helping me try to be a better person. I have been stacked, attacked, harassed & beaten for being who I am. Some days I do graciousness & kindness better. Others, I am angry what is happening to us.
