“Fascism, it’s always about using nationalism, and the nation, as a bludgeon to generate support for death policies, on behalf of death governments. For violence and repression and exploitation, internationalism is the antidote, always.” —Robin D. G. Kelley

As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. It’s often said you never know when you’re living through history, so let me assure you: that’s what’s happening now.
A graphic with bold text urging the NYC Council to stabilize and properly fund NYC public libraries in the city budget. It includes a red box with the link "bit.ly/nyccouncil2026" and arrows pointing to the link.
New Yorkers, please contact your city council member to get them on record to support 0.5% of the city expense budget allocated to the public libraries. actionnetwork.org/letters/city... - please share with your networks.
I hope New Yorkers will challenge Mamdani about this. Too often, people feel they need to be absolutely for or against a politician — ignoring their missteps or throwing them out with the bathwater. You can like and/or believe in someone and still challenge them to deliver on their promises.
Friends!

UCLA said no to Trump's abusive demands, went to court, and the govt is backing off.
Harvard said no to Trump's abusive demands, went to court, and the govt is left sputtering.
Columbia, Cornell, and Northwestern giving in was a big mistake. If only there were lessons against appeasing fascists.

This is an organizing tradition in East L.A.
“For decades, student-led walkouts on the Eastside have served as a powerful tool for activism, dating back to the 1968 East LA Blowouts that shed light on inequalities for Mexican Americans in the public education system.”
Such a terrible loss.
Not defunded.
In solidarity with all those standing up for our communities against the brutality of immigrant detention and ICE occupation, we're offering free ebooks of three crucial books about migrant justice and border abolition.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.”
The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.
one of the gofundme campaigns sent to me today is only trying to raise $1,600 and has a horrific story of an experience of a Hmong elder.
they've only raised $10.
He was doing what many have been saying white men should be doing. He went outside to observe, he documented, he put his body on the line to protect another person and for this he was murdered by the gatekeepers of the fascist regime.
Abolish ICE, abolish DHS, redistribute the other agencies, prosecute actual criminals, such as people who commit execution-style murders of Americans in broad daylight.
I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.
Reupping this from last night.
If you're a library advocate or worker, you should be pissed. You should also be pissed if you're a taxpayer. MILLIONS of dollars have been stolen from you and from public libraries and museums to develop these propaganda trucks.
The administration brags on social.
