The work of building the future calls for NOURISHMENT. How do we build healthy, thriving communities with access to food, nature, and exploration? How do we expand community gardens, seed banks, food pantries, and cross-cultural experiences? #cultureforall #artsrecovery

Calling all cultural workers! Join @usartsdept today for a Twitter Town Hall that dives into our work with #APeoplesWPA.
In this era of deep recovery and possibility, we are called to reimagine! The People’s WPA asks what kinds of work must we do at this urgent moment. How can culture and labor merge to bring forth an equitable world? Who brings this reality to life? #cultureforall #artsrecovery

At last, #BorderWall construction crews have been sent packing. Today, for the first time in a year, I heard water flowing & birds chirping along the San Pedro in peace. This halt to construction comes too late for what was once Arizona’s last free-flowing river. #TearItDown

The #BorderWall isn’t just a racist, ineffective boondoggle. It’s also the single biggest threat to endangered species & public lands in the entire U.S/Mexico border region.

I gotta be honest the worst looting I've ever seen take place happened a few weeks ago when corporations collected over 500 billion dollars in stimulus money while everyone else was left with a $1200 dollar check and having to decide if they pay for food or rent..
