Protestors stand outside the Daley center in Chicago, holding protest signs. One reads: IKEA has better cabinets. Another reads: the Arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice. -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. an American flag flies in the corner right.

Large mass of protestors headed toward the Federal Trade Building in Chicago. Gloomy weather, but spirits were high.

My protest sign with a mass of protestors in the background. It reads: The Arc of the Moral Universe is Long, But it Bends Towards Justice. -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Thank you, Chicago. #handsoff #chicago

This is Chicago. We filled Daley Plaza. We filled the streets. We rallied and marched in the name of democracy, human rights, civil rights, people's livelihoods, people's lives, our planet, peace and justice in our country and around the world. #HandsOff @indivisible.org

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

@durbin.senate.gov has lost my vote

Senator Durbin @durbin.senate.gov, you let us down.

Deeply dismayed to see that Senator Dick Durbin voted YES.

Thank you @govpritzker.illinois.gov !!

Thank you @duckworth.senate.gov !!

ICE detained Mahmoud Khalil and threatened him with deportation simply for voicing his beliefs.

This is unconstitutional, full stop. Join us in demanding the release of Mahmoud at aclu.org/free_mahmmoud

Tonight’s blood moon eclipse watching over #Chicago.

The more people ICE detains, the wealthier private prison companies become.

No one should profit off the suffering of immigrants.

Call to Action: Tell Congress to Protect Families and Communities – Vote No on H.R. 32 Congress will soon vote on H.R. 32 – the No Bailout for Sanctuary Cities Act, a bill that threatens local communities by cutting federal funding to jurisdictions labeled as “sanctuary cities.” This wo...

I wrote to my Representative urging them to vote NO on H.R. 32, the No Bailout for Sanctuary Cities Act. This bill threatens public safety and will cause major disruptions in the critically needed services cities provide. Join me and take action today! bit.ly/43nEYCD

Two pairs of beautiful hand-beaded earrings. One is an ivory cream pair made of dentalium shells and the other is a dangly pair, made of long thin scarlet red and sage green glass beads. Both are on gold clasps and catching the sunlight.

Love love LOVE my earrings from @cvkvlv.bsky.social 🤍 can’t wait to wear them!

Let it be known that whoever buys the property will have SEVERE financial consequences. Spread the word. They’ve tried to do this with federal lands before.

This February, we saw a 275% increase in new Libro.fm memberships compared to February 2024.

More and more individuals are choosing to support their independent bookshop—and their local communities—over Amazon/Audible. Thank you for supporting your indie with us ❤️

Scapegoating immigrant communities will never make anyone safer.

Thank you!

Oh so this was the red wave y’all were talking about

In this culture of rampant consumerism, the library is a bastion of counter culture. There one can check out things for free. Great books filled with profound ideas are all available for free.

Oh thanks for letting me know! I’ll keep an eye out for when they do

I think @bookshop-org.bsky.social also has e-books now!

I was thinking the same, how are human lives inconsequential? And how is eliminating DEI positive? What the hell are these metrics

Buy audiobooks & support local bookstores Libro.fm makes it possible for you to buy audiobooks directly through local bookstores.

Audible was the only subscription I hung on to for too long, but switched the libro.fm recently and haven’t regretted it! Same exact content and prices and you can select a local bookstore to have the profits go to
