50+ people held a "pee-in" at the Kansas State Capitol after legislators last week passed a "gut-n-go" (when a bill is copy/pasted into the body of another passing bill to avoid public testimony hearing) anti-trans, bounty hunter bathroom bill #topeka #transrights #ksleg #bathroombill #trans #kansas

Leavenworth, Kansas, residents have currently packed City Hall for the committee's hearing about CoreCivic who is trying to win special-permit permission to establish a Kansas detention center. CoreCivic is a known prìson contractor with IC E.(1/2) #Kansas #corecivic #iceprotest #communityorganizing

This morning, evangelical churches across the country will be praising God for the b0mbs dropped in the name of their own 'safety.' This is what Christian nationalism does for power. This is what 'gaining the world but losing your soul' looks like. And this is all connected to the ongoing gènòçìdè.
On a background picture of massive explosions are two text boxes. One is a quote next to a cut-out of DJT giving a press conference. The quote reads: "I just want to thank everybody and, in particular, God. We love you, God." The other, smaller text reads "STATEMENT FROM DONALD J. TRUMP FOLLOWING THE DROPPING OF "BUNKER BUSTER" BOMBS ON IRAN June 21, 2025"

Patriot Front nazis on the ground in #kansascity this past weekend. Folks are working to spread the word + footage. Two U-Hauls of men in masks, caps, & sunglasses marching with confederate flags are reported as being escorted by c0ps while they blocked streets. Keep being vigilent, friends.

And what will be deemed anti-Christian? Everything street preachers have yelled for decades: LGBTQIA+ rights. No-Fault Divorce. Birth Control. Abortions. Pàlèstìnìàn's right to LIVE. Free speech. Read @swordsjew.bsky.social 's #wildfaith for a list. Our parents taught us this was always the plan.

I think we can appreciate #corybooker taking a stand without turning him into a hero. Yes, it was an commendable step, plus he broke the record held by a racist yt guy. But be clear on why he did it: "our constituents are asking us" Folks calling, showing at #townhall did this. Keep the pressure on.
A photo of Cory Booker in a suit speaking at a podium is accompanied by a quote by him which reads: "I rise with the intention of disrupting the normal business of the U.S. Senate for as long as I am physically able. Our constituents are asking us to acknowledge that this is a crisis. I am going to stand here until I no longer can."

This was outside the #Kansas state capital today.A Satanic group was barred from their scheduled Black Mass inside the rotonda & this is one of the #nationalists who stood in opposition as they gathered outside.When we tell you they want another Holy War,please believe us🫠 #authoritarian #freespeech

He is taking a knee across the street from the Statehouse. In his right hand he grasps a large cross, in his right hand he holds a bicolored flag. The top half is dark blue and the bottom half is white. Stitches upon the flag is a red x-like symbol reminiscant of the old crusades.

Constantly worried about the number of people conflating "I / they haven't been targeted yet" with "I am / they are safe" P0tus& Rubiọ have talked about 'public enemies' like #teslatakedown protesters being sent to non-US prisons. #immigration #deportation #project2025 #firsttheycame #wekeepussafe
A message in white text on a blue background reads "well if she's a citizen then she has nothing to worry about"

I am sitting with this quote tonight from @prisonculture.bsky.social thinking about the interconnected of systems and methods of oppression. As kids in fundamentalism, we were regularly taught to both "other" and label "criminal" those who stood in the way of the holy war. It's front & center rn.
A navy blue background has small gray circle accents, a light gray layer in the center behind the text, and a gray box at the bottom for quote attribution.  In big, white letters is the quote "Criminalization is the indispensable fuel of fascism. I think  people are seeing it now, perhaps, in a way they weren't seeing it before." In the gray box at the bottom, in white and lighter gray letters, reads "Mariame Kaba
Organizer, Prison Abolitionist
Movement Memos: A Truthout Podcast
March 20, 2025 Episode"
A thin white line serves as a divider between the quote text and the attribution text.

👉Yes, there will be lawsuits, folks. But this is also the excuse some schools have been looking for to roll out additional c0ps for increased detaines- even if the charges don't hold up later. If you are a student, work with co-strugglers to learn/plan ahead /1 #protest

I've been caught up in a lot of feelings as anti #trans laws are pushed through. Expected, yet sucker punches every time. I keep thinking of Sylvia Rivera's words at the 2001 rally for homeless youth: "Don't they realize these [trans, gay] children have suffered enough?" #protecttranskids #transkids
Cut-outs of Sylvia Rivera holding flyers and Marsha P. Johnson in a fur coat, hand outstretched, are in the center of the graphic. The background is pink with trans ribbons and white heart across the middle line, and in the top half, faded white letters reading 'Protect Trans Kids' repeat over and over again. In the bottom half, black letters read "Our mothers taught us to protect trans kids no matter what.”

As of now, 17 states are suing the Fed Gov for the 'right' to discontinue school access to #disabled students. Worse, they are using their cruel hatred of #trans kids to do it. This is the opposite of #disabilityjustice The states listed on the bill are #Texas, #Alaska, #Alabama, #Arkansas, /1

In the most recent visit, [☆]Prime Minster gifted Trump a golden pager installed on polished wood, a base reads "Greatest friend...and ally." Pager reference [☆]s mass, citizen killing through explosive pagers last year. Trump:"that was a great operation." Right in front of the world. #warcrime

It has been 91 years, 278 days since the Nàzìs campaign to erase #trans people led to torching the #library archives at the Institute for Sex Research. We still feel the loss today. #BookBurnings look different in the digital age. Know the signs, and learn how to #archive /store #knowledge. #resist

In KS House anti-trans bill hearing, TERF Jaime Reed took to the mic to explain that "transing" folks is a hate crime against gay LGBT people. The entire testimony sounded AI & was a blatant erasure of queer liberation history. But look the faces of trans ppl & allies packed in the room. #ksleg /1
A TERF lesbian with long brown hair wearing a black dress stands at a podium to address the house committee. In the background, trans people and allies in anything from business casual to bright colored blazers and jackets look on. One audience member looks bored, one is hard-core and sassily judging, one is looking up in exasperation, one has their face in their hands to hide their laughter, another is busy checking their phone.

With the change in administration, many struggles that didn't used to be as visible to the general public are now front and center. Some instruction from many organizers that I remind myself of often is how we need to prioritize where the work was already happening before reinventing the wheel.
