Four Wings Of Movement Collaboration 
- Leah Penniman

A butterfly is drawn with four segments of its wings, each labeled RESIST, BUILD, REFORM, and HEAL. Within each winglet, examples are written, and they’re described in detail along the edges of the illustration. 

RESISTING oppression via direct action—think Occupy, protests, boycotts, marches, treesitting, etc.

BUILDING new worlds and systems—think co-ops, community ownership models, land trusts, social networks, food hubs, organic farms, etc.

REFORMING existing systems to shift power and resources—think holding elected office, advocacy, institutional leadership, etc.

HEALING individual and collective trauma—think art and experience-making, storytelling, medicine-making, therapy, music, etc.

Many folks want to organize right now but aren’t sure how.

There are many ways; that’s the hard part AND the beauty of it.

This model by Leah Penniman, illustrated by Christine Tyler Hill, shows how comprehensive social change requires many strategies.

We need all of us.
Find your role and begin.

"Two barbecue pits, both alike in dignity
(In fair Lockhart Texas, where we lay our scene),
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil sauce makes civil hands unclean."

excerpt from my adaptation of Romeo & Juliet, the setting moved to the feud between Black's and Terry Black's BBQ

Pittsburgh’s first queer history landmark is up for review Efforts to preserve the shuttered Donny’s Place in Polish Hill will go to the Pittsburgh Historic Review Commission in February.

For almost 50 years, Donny's Place was a hub of LGBTQ culture in Pittsburgh. The former bar could become the first officially recognized queer historic site Western Pennsylvania. My new @publicsource.org story digs into the history & the preservation advocacy. 🗃️ www.publicsource.org/pittsburgh-q...

related but opposite fun fact: if you click on any google ad for an etsy item and buy anything from that store in the next 30 days, it costs the creator 12-15% on top of standard fees. so if you see something cool..... don't click, type it in

my main problem with this is it feels like they want to thematically link these 2 images in the same frame, so the one on the left should have all the same referential colors in it for it to feel balanced. where's the pink??

Yup. Microsoft automatically switched me to the $99.99/year version with Spicy Autocomplete. You have to go all the way through "cancel subscription" to be presented these options and get the $69.99/year one you actually chose.
