As a Scandinavian American (half Norwegian and half Swedish), I am wondering who else whose Grandparents immigrated here, gave up their cultural identity to assimilate and now feel buried within the whiteness of America? And feel out of alignment with the current political white identity?

I supported #gunviolenceprevention in honor of the school shootings. You can support agencies like @thehavi.bsky.social who are working to end firearm violence.

Students were shot at today and injured in Colorado. Let's not forget how gun violence impacts our communities. I, for one, don't think it's worth it. We can #preventgunviolence

White Women , stop saying you are a non practicing white person.That is ridiculous.Learn how to be anti-racist, vote to further the interests of the community-against policies/laws that marginalize people of color, immigrants,women.Own your history/ learn how to dismantle the harmful aspects of it.

I don't know why I'm always surprised at people's ingratitude and greed. I'm one of those people who think of the group and the mission.

Does that make me not an American because I don't think of the "I"?

Talk to your republican friends family about the realities of losing social security/healthcare, as that is a good goal. Organize meetings with Republican reps and go with them. Focus on one or two clear economic concerns is issue organizing and worked well for republicans so use that same tool.
