Today in history, 1898: After voters elect a biracial city council in Wilmington, N.C., a mob of white supremacists overthrows the local government in a coup d’état. The mob also killed as many as 300 black residents in what is known as the Wilmington Massacre. /1

Air pollution from fossil fuel combustion killed 2.52 million people in 2022, & contributes to nearly 8 million deaths worldwide, according to @who.int figures.

Priorities.

Watch this.

Open your eyes to this brutality.

ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.

Now share this.

Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.

You have power.

Even sharing this video exerts that power.

This administration keeps torching the Hatch Act—propaganda videos in airports, partisan emails on federal servers, even mass firings. It’s corruption with a flag pin. See something? Say something. Expose it through the whistleblower tip line.

Jane Goodall on animal agriculture: "The lack of understanding among the general public is disturbing, because if more people knew what went on in the factory farms they would be less willing to eat the flesh or drink the milk resulting from... torture."

a white pit bull lays in a vet kennel on a pile of blue towels looking a little worse for wear. three of her paws are wrapped in bandages, and she has an I.V. tube connected to her front paw. her floopy ears are extended and her tongue is caught mid-blep.

This is Roti. She was found on the side of a highway, severely injured with a terribly mangled leg. Her health began declining fast, and she was rushed to the hospital. She needs surgery and ongoing wound care. You can help her get it below ❤️‍🩹

Reminder, share amongst yourselves.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

🧵 Nearly 400 emergency 911 calls in just 6 months.
Pregnancy complications. Cardiac arrests. Seizures. Suicide attempts. Sexual assaults.

This isn’t border security—it’s a human rights catastrophe unfolding in ICE detention. And these calls came from just 10 centers. The true number? Unimaginable.

Thank you for this thread! You’ve made it crystal clear where we stand.

I was also impressed by this thread from Bobby Kogan @bbkogan.bsky.social on the places and people where we should apply pressure to stop the Republican assault on our rights.

Yes, let’s fight.
