Obligatory "hold Amazon accountable for how they treat their workers" post, since yes, I am promoting an Amazon documentary. Gotta hold their feet to the fire!

I saw the manipulation. The fear. The financial corruption. And I chose to speak up.

SHP2 explores how ministries used pop culture to control teens, & how that harm still echoes.

Another argument AGAINST vouchers. We know these unvaxxed populations are largely home/private schooled. Public school vax requirements help keep deadly outbreaks like this at bay.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Navajo Nation President responds after concern tribal members could be detained by ICE Some Indigenous people fear racial profiling and a lack of adequate IDs could lead to confusion during possible raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

On social media, several Navajo Nation tribal members say they have had their nationality questioned. The accounts are not verified but Navajos who live off the reservation say they are concerned about being swept up in raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
