Just started this book thanks to @naomiaklein.bsky.social and @astra.bsky.social. The premise immediately resonates. "Our task is to make trouble, to stir up potent response to devastating events, as well as to settle troubled waters and rebuild quiet places."

Today is Indigenous Peoples' Day. A reminder that Columbus was a genocidal fascist and human trafficker, and deserves no honor or recognition. Instead,here's why now 30+ states have adopted recognition of Indigenous Peoples' Day,and why we need to make it all 50. www.qasimrashid.com/p/today-is-i...

Christopher Columbus was a historical figure and genocidal monster who should be studied, not an icon to be honored
