Reposted by MAparna Nair @disabilitystor1.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Alice Wong was one of the most effective people challenging the Whiteness of disability communities and its many flaws, but who believed fiercely in us as a community, in disabled people as oracles. Alice brought so much to so many of us, it’s hard to measure the kind of gratitude I have for that. 81293347

Reposted by MInterrupting Criminalization @interruptcrim.bsky.social · 21/03/2025These present another danger now, especially for migrants: Diversion programs often require people to admit to certain facts or plead guilty to an offense in exchange for a program over prosecution—which in some cases can now subject them to mandatory detention and deportation under new federal law. 152
Reposted by MInterrupting Criminalization @interruptcrim.bsky.social · 21/03/2025Diversion programs are often sites of policing, coercion and harm, while rarely prioritizing the needs and perspectives of participants—and now, these programs, amid the ongoing attacks on migrants and the context of this country's "war on drugs," pose a particular danger to migrants and to parents. 141

M @mmschz.bsky.social · 20/03/2025The Fearless Benjamin Lay was such a strong starting point for our Life Stories of Antislavery Abolitionists reading group. Quakers were early in adopting an anti-slavery stance, but they didn't start off on the right side. Benjamin Lay was a true badass. 010
M @mmschz.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Deleted and reposted because I got the hashtag wrong. 😅 Anyway, Ch 1, in discussing variations of Christianity and new branches opposing slavery, "only the Quakers had an older claim in acknowledging the wrongness of slavery." Please go read about Benjamin Lay if you haven't! 110
M @mmschz.bsky.social · 20/03/2025Finally diving in. Thanks to JK for getting this going. I will probably organize my thoughts similarly, or may lean into responding to others on the hashtag. Just want to note here, I have no idea what my pacing will look like. 😅 #abolitionstories 220
M @mmschz.bsky.social · 20/03/2025"Although journalists from various antislavery publications attended the conference, there is no record of Douglass's remarks." Yeesh. Despite it being clear he "brought down the house." But somehow we have direct quotes from Garrison's response. 100
