If youre protesting this weekend, please wear a mask! Covid and other viruses are circulating - I know several people who are/were just sick. It is important to make things accessible, especially because most minorities, especially disabled people, are much more likely to have the worst outcomes.

A people who refuse to despise one another are immune to authoritarians because an authoritarianβs power depends on certain groups of people despising other groups of people.
This is why thereβs so much power in Jesusβ words, βlove your enemies.β
It is an act of resistance.

I know it's not always helpful to have historians popping up with previous examples, but I would be remiss if I did not point out that this is exactly the same tactic Harvard used to circumscribe abolitionist meetings on campus in the Antebellum era.

Long Covid Is Real -- And It's Changing an Entire Generation
Long Covid is affecting hundreds of thousands of kids in America, and many doctors and schools refuse to recognize their illness.
βWhen you have a disability people canβt see, you donβt get the same level of empathy. It feels like the world has moved on.β
Itβs shameful how society is gaslighting people who are experiencing chronic illness and ignoring an ongoing public health crisis.

Fair enough, but does anyone who makes this point every ague that Pakistan, Bangladesh, Algeria, Jordan, Egypt, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Yemen, Iran, and a long list of others don't have a right to exist?
No one is ever asked by moderators and by Democratic leadership if they recognize any of these states "right" to exist as an Islamic state because everyone agrees that this would be a stupid and ridiculous litmus test.

Global War on Terror, more George Floyds and Breeona Taylors... a normalized implicitly fascistic status quo that will pave the road to another explicit fascist regime. But you know what? Every empire declines and falls, so maybe this is how the U.S. goes out after 250 years. 3/

Politics often depends on the richest in society.
That's why I'm SO proud of our campaign. We're funded small dollar donors. We've raised almost 6x more in donations under $200 than the next five candidates in my race COMBINED.
We're by and for the people β NOT corporations and billionaires.
