There is no clearer case for the necessity of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 than how quickly southern states moved to eliminate Black-majority districts and dilute Black power after SCOTUS eroded Section 2. SCOTUS’s reasoning was immediately disproven by reality.

"Trump has fundamentally reshaped the Environmental Protection Agency, initiating nearly 70 actions to undo rules protecting ecosystems and the climate." Trump is destroying our environment, poisoning our communities, and raising our costs so his ultra-rich polluter friends can get even richer.

fascinating call for The New Material Ecopoetics: "experimental eco-poetry that engages with the possibilities of organic form. We welcome experiments with lyric, visual poetics, material poetries, and sound poetries." from @arcpoetry.bsky.social

Poems: The New Material Ecopoetics
Search tag:poetry
Search tag:theme
What does it mean to be a poet engaged with the physical material of the world around us? How does poetic form change in the encounter with other beings? How do we write collaboratively with—rather than about—nonhuman beings and ecologies?

For the Fall 2025 issue, Arc is seeking experimental eco-poetry that engages with the possibilities of organic form. We welcome experiments with lyric, visual poetics, material poetries, and sound poetries. Submissions should be previously unpublished poetry in English or translations of poetry into English (please confirm you have the appropriate rights and permissions to publish your translation). Submissions on this theme will be accepted until May 15, 2025.

3.5% is all we need. 3.5% of the population being engaged and committed is the magic number to overthrow a dictator. And I'd bet that if 2% of us were *out protesting* yesterday, more of us are out there than that. Keep up the pressure.
