White people, no one is asking you to apologize for your ancestors. We are asking you to dismantle the systems they built and you maintain.

I just saw a job post that said you need to be available 24/7 365. Who would apply for that?

A key feature of the generational divide is young folks’ understanding of intersectionality as “adults” scoff at their supposed ineptitude as the planet literally burns around us.
The U.S. military has the largest carbon footprint of any entity on earth.

I've seen no credible reporting of actual antisemitic incidents at the UT Austin protest. What I can tell you is that I've reported on numerous neo-Nazi events and Greg Abbott never once tried to put any of them in jail.

Arrests being made right now & will continue until the crowd disperses.
These protesters belong in jail.
Antisemitism will not be tolerated in Texas. Period.
Students joining in hate-filled, antisemitic protests at any public college or university in Texas should be expelled.

Today’s growing student movements, from #ColumbiaUniversity to #UCBerkeley to #USC, calling on their universities to divest from Israeli apartheid, echo the powerful legacy of Vietnam-era student protests, showcasing a deep-rooted tradition of activism for human rights. 1/4

Wow. Now Baltimore Police, one of most corrupt over-policed depts. wants to build a Cop City. Atlanta protesters warned us if we don’t #StopCopCity in ATL, there’d be cop cities in every city. Stopping this tide of irreversible fascism is America’s greatest domestic issue.

Remember I said I was nervous to start the back to school fundraiser and so many encouraged me to just post it.
It's been up for 24 hours and only 1 donation.
2 years ago we raised $21k, last year we only raised under $6k.
Yea, i'm nervous now.

The writers and actors were joined by striking flight attendants and hotel workers on the picket line today. This country is being forced to decide between access to a decent life for 99% of us, or letting the richest people in the world get even richer. That's the fight.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-to-1
CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 2020: 366-to-1
CEO-to-worker pay ratio now: 399-to-1
Is it really any mystery why thousands of workers across multiple industries have been on strike?

$525 until we hit $5k to purchase backpacks and school supplies for local kids.
Can’t believe if we hit this years goal we will be at 20,000 local students helped over 8 years
25 Jul 2023
Yesterday we only made around $100. I hate knowing I am going to struggle to fill 1,000 backpacks. Each backpack is around $20 to fill with the bare minimum of supplies.
Please don't let this year be the year I fail

Republican-led Georgia is joining hands with Democrat-led Atlanta to commit voter suppression in order to stop people from voting against Cop City, a massive $90 million police training facility that will also require razing forest land.
