He has no idea what he is boasting about. He has no idea about a baseline dementia assessment vs. an IQ test. I suppose, folks have no idea either and believe his ill informed propaganda. And we know it is not even close

IRCA aallowed me to become a middle school teacher in Los Angeles, then grad school at UNC. Chapel Hill. II went on to teach at several universities. Thanks to sensible legislation.

They would be called radical leftist today. Two years later, in 1982, SCOTUS ruled in Plyler vs Doe and established that denying undocumented children access to free public K-12 education violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution. Then in 1986 under Reagan they passed IRCA

Who is LakotaMan, the user behind one of the most popular Native American accounts on X? John Martin is adored by white X usersโ€”but infamous among Native and Indigenous communities.

I am seeing a lot of people reposting Lakota Man today bc it's Indigenous Peoples Day. A reminder that he is not well liked amongst many (most?) Natives on social media. Many of us blocked him a long time ago. Some of the reasons why are in this article.

๐ŸงตListen up white folks.

Natives have been yelling since invasion and only now are you listening but you still aren't hearing or comprehending.

Native existence is resistance because we're surviving an ongoing genocide that you can no longer ignore because it's starting to happen to you. 1/6

A federal appeals court ruled the Trump admin can deploy the National Guard to Portland. For those who are shocked at watching the National Guard on the ground in U.S. cities, we need to talk about how it beganโ€ฆ

We can participate in democracy and be flawed while also having non-negotiable. No nazis. No racists. We arenโ€™t abandoning trans people. Triple the minimum wage. Universal healthcare. Reproductive freedom. Etc etc etc. Stand for something! Appeasement accomplishes very little.

The Regime's goal is to grind everyone down. Plain & simple. Our goal is to refuse this by taking turns to fight where and how we can. When one group needs to bow out, then another group needs to step in and so on. We don't all have to do everything. We can all do something though. Stay in the fight

Since Link is banned, his mutual aid Fridays have gone with him. This was one of the most altruistic things Iโ€™ve seen anyone on this site do.

In light of this, Iโ€™m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

Read This When Things Fall Apart by Kelly Hayes | Pilsen Community Books A bundle of letters to activists and organizers on the frontlines in catastrophic times from Let This Radicalize You co-author Kelly Hayesย In social movements, some heartbreaks are all but inevitable.

My publisherโ€™s been very patient. Iโ€™m not doing everything I said Iโ€™d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because Iโ€™m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.
