Things are getting worse, yet coverage is slowing down. Don't forget about Gaza, keep talking, spreading the word, doing what you can. People need help, people need to know they're not forgotten.

Gaza doesn’t have enough food for the children. Don’t stop talking about Gaza.

I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words. I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

.@RashidaTlaib leads with love, speaks truth to power, and seeks justice even in the face of blatant hate & Islamophobia. As the only Palestinian-American in Congress, she is a much-needed voice in an institution that too often fails to listen. Proud to stand with you, sisπŸ’œ

The woman you are referring to is my aunt, Dr. Talat Jehan Khan. She is a Muslim woman, a mother of two, a well-respected member of her community, and an admired pediatrician. Say her name. #DrTalatKhan

At this point every sector of SAPDβ€”Chief, officers, union, civilian employeesβ€”need to take a public stand against permitless carry. To be clear, many of them opposed before it passed. But things are DIFFERENT since it became law, and no one knows better than they do.

Six people were shot and killed in six separate shootings this weekend across San Antonio, from residential areas, to a soccer field, to the North Star Mall. Most of the victims were younger than 20. kens5.com/article/news/crime…

Depression is sneaky because YOU will be like "Everything is great!" And your depression will be like "That doesn't matter because you're still worthless and will fail, lets eat a whole pizza and think about how everyone you care about only tolerates you."
