You don't need a ceasefire for a peace deal. Yeah right. And you don't need good faith for entering an agreement. Standard #trump.

I am happy that the ban has been announced but also wondering if it will come in place, especially with a possible Regulatory Standards Bill based on which the racing industry's freedom to make money off of animals might be considered as freedom of doing business.

To add to it, we got quite some abuse from the "trainers" and the security, who came to tell us our banner could not touch the fence (the wind was pushing it against, which was initially quite convenient for us; the remaining 3h we'd hold it up during the races, which was a bit of a workout).

There were 12 races, in which one dog was injured so badly it had to be carried out, and we heard several others yelp πŸ˜ͺ

The whole experience was very stressful because of the fear of injuries we might witness.

Greyhound racing is still a thing in NZ and the industry is fighting the ban due to come into effect in a year.

Today I was part of a peaceful protest: we were holding a big banner ("Stop greyhound racing", first photo), had signs, and were recording footage.

Pretty terrifying to watch the "Land of the Free" or whatever become a fascist regime at high speed. Hard to imagine the range of consequences it will have on everyone, in the States and abroad.

I consider intersectional patterns of inequity and based on them I suggest three ways forward:

πŸ“ Measuring what we value
➑️ Aligning delivery with strategy
πŸŸ₯ Retrofitting inherited environments and systems

Writing it was such a great opportunity to look back at all I had been reading and thinking, from the equity perspective.

America’s Forgotten Generation (of Prosperity) How and why the postwar boom got memory-holed

Fantastic reality-check by Paul Krugman: Trump hailing tariffs and not income tax as *the* great prosperity booster is simply at odds with history. Which would better go forgotten.
