Incredibly compelling testimony by a lawyer who is witnessing a protest taking place today at the prison camp in Dilley, TX where ICE brought 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos. “Apparently the protest was initiated over the treatment of the five-year-old … from Minneapolis …

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin. Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Tell Chuck It’s Up to Him to Block Unconditioned ICE Funding The appropriations bill needs Democratic votes to pass the Senate, so Dems have leverage NOW. They must refuse additional funding for ICE AND add policy riders to the bill that restrict ICE's actions. Schumer get your house in order

where do i find truth?
i find truth in art that brings tears to my eyes

where do i find trust?
i find trust where i can communicate without words

where do i find courage?
i find courage in being in community

where do i find hope?
i find hope in small gestures that bring a smile to a face

where do i find light?
i find light in sharing moments that make hearts sing


wishing you truth, trust, courage, hope and light
in this new year!

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva — because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.

A few things about last Saturday’s rally, that was hastily assembled to call out ICEstapo’s illegal tactics after Friday’s arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka 1. It inspired me to experiment with something I have been thinking about for a while, reviving a project called “Somewhere in Between”

yesterday evening’s emergency seder in the streets
bought to you by @ifnotnowmovement.org @jvp.bsky.social  @rabbis4ceasefire.bsky.social

it’s been a long time since i identified as jewish
but it feels important to do so now
to stand as someone who says
“not in our name”
“come for one, face us all”
“none of us are free until all of us are free”

the regime is using antisemitism
as a pretext to divide us,
to make us fear each other
and to pick us off,
one by one

if you were waiting for a constitutional crisis 
to believe our democracy has devolved into fascism
THAT WAIT IS OVER

we are living under a regime that
snatches people off the streets,
ships them overseas to torture camps without due process,
and then defies court orders to bring them back,
a regime that has co-opted the top law firms 
to fight PRO BONO on its behalf 

this is happening NOW
and THIS is what fascism looks like

turning a blind eye to injustice
does not make it go away
it makes one complicit
it robs one of one’s own freedom

if one feels they themselves
(or their loved ones)
will never be targeted directly
think again
it is our collective humanity that is up for grabs
and there is no grey area in that game. 

I stand with courage,
the courage to challenge my fears,
to challenge my own beliefs about others,
and to challenge my beliefs about what i require to truly “be free”

the time for saying:
“it could never happen here”
is over
it is happening,
it has happened,
it’s not a bad dream
and the only thing that can stop it is us

please find a march on Saturday and take to the streets again
it really does matter

Vanessa German: “GUMBALL - there is absolutely no space between body and soul” Kasmin (509 W 27th and 514 W 28th) thru 5/10 full text of this post is in the alt text of the 1st image finding it too cumbersome to post about gallery shows on bluesky or even post my own art in any meaningful way 😢
A week ago I had the opportunity to hear Vanessa German speak about the work in her current show “GUMBALL - there is absolutely no space between body and soul” at Kasmin (509 West 27th and 514 West 28th) through 5/10

Given German’s generosity of spirit here on IG, I knew this might be a transformative experience and it was. She told stories and sang blessings, shared intimate details of life while making the work along with delving into her process, all as she spread a gospel of love and play.  For me the power of this work is held in a tension arising from creating undeniable beauty and grace without losing relationship to a history of pain and abject inhumanity.  The work feels so necessary for this time when it is essential to be able to hold conflicting truths at the same time, when it is imperative to understand that the very real threats we face can only be met with the force of love and mutual care.

Because they should be yours to discover, i am only posting details, hoping to seduce you to see & experience their power in person. And
please refer to the check list while visiting, it will give you a taste of German’s poetic presence.
