You might not see it in the mainstream media, but over 10,000 people protested today at Tesla showrooms across the country, another 10,000+ rallied in support of national parks, and more than 1,000 gathered in Vermont to protest Vance’s visit.

Today is the 1st day of February, Black History Month, 2025. I took a day of respite. It’s a privilege that I can, and I did. Spent it snowshoeing in the woods - sparkly snow and tall pine trees on the land of John Brown’s Farm; I hope to be an ally like Brown was to the fight against slavery.
