A cargo shipment of medical supplies, tarps, and other essential non-food items reached Jamaica, to help people affected by the massive destruction caused by Hurricane Melissa.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

Federal agents invaded even the offices of The Crisis and the National Association for the advancement of colored people and asked searching questions: " just what, after all, were our objects and activities?” I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, β€œWe are seeking to have the constitution of the United states thoroughly and completely enforced.” It took some ingenuity, even for Southerners, to make treason out of that.

"I took great satisfaction in being able to sit back in my chair and answer blandly, 'We are seeking to have the Constitution of the United States thoroughly and completely enforced.' ”

TikTok posts on Israel-Gaza war are overwhelmingly pro-Palestinian A new report finds 17 pro-Palestinian posts for every pro-Israeli one, but they tend to get the same amount of traction online.

U.S.-based TikTokers show overwhelming support for Palestinians, according to the nonpartisan Cybersecurity for Democracy.

It found that for every pro-Israel post that appeared on TikTok in September, there were roughly 17 posts supporting Palestinians.

As basic question from an ex-police reporter: Can some of our journalists detail the training regimen all these new federal agents receive? The lethal incompetence involving use of force and perameters of the 4A suggests they are just handed guns, masks and badges and told to go fuck people up.

The Invention of β€œSesame Street” Renata Adler’s 1972 review of the program that revolutionized children’s television.

What a night, Edmonton-Strathcona!

Albertans deserve better. And today, they chose better.

I’m deeply honoured by the opportunity to serve Edmonton-Strathcona and all Albertans as a Member of the Legislative Assembly. Thank you for putting your trust in me!

This year alone, the ACLU and our affiliates have conducted over 150 Know Your Rights trainings, where we’ve ensured supporters are informed on how to use their rights, follow the law, and advocate for our communities while keeping each other safe.

Community care is part of our resistance.

Moments after MPP Mamakwa was removed from the legislature:

Reporter: "Can you explain just what precisely the Premier said that you're saying is untruthful?"

Sol: "That he respects and honours the duty to consult. That's not the truth. The way [Bill 5] is written up speaks the opposite."

Bill 5 is a mess. It's not how we do things in Canada. The Ford government tried to disguise it as a bill about mines and the Northβ€”but Ontarians see right through it. Plain and simple: Bill 5 is a power grab.

It's time to scrap it.
