as more people get out into the street, some questions worth asking: - what risks/sacrifices are you willing to make for what you believe in? - are your actions symbolic or do they have material impact? do they protect ppl from state violence? - is your community in need of your energy elsewhere?

George Floyd was murdered by police five years ago today. The Say Their Names cemetery in Minneapolis features memorials for Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Amadou Diallo, Oscar Grant, Korryn Gaines, Freddie Gray and far too many more Black people who died at the hands of police.

Here's the reality of this "Jewish safety" argument I keep hearing: The only world that's safe for us is one that's safe for everyone else, too. You can't kill your way to safety. And the best way to make a world safe for everyone is to start with our own. Because we have a genocide to stop.

"It's war, shit happens." No actually. There's law in war. There are rules. You don't get to carpet bomb civilian populations and then chalk it up to "war sucks." That's literally why they're called "war crimes."

If we're going to be damned, let's be damned for who and what we really are. Let's be loud and proud and unapologetic, right until whatever end comes, whenever it comes. They can never break our spirit unless we let them.

Today, April 7, Rwanda begins Kwibuka 31 — a national day to remember the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. 🇷🇼 In just 100 days, nearly one million people were killed. 💔🙏🏼 Kwibuka means "to remember" in Kinyarwanda.🕯️ #Kwibuka31 #Rwanda #NeverAgain

I'm going to tell you a true story. And when I'm done, you'll never look at homeless people the same way again. Several years ago, when I was still working at a legal aid clinic, a partner organization asked us to take the case of a quintessential little old lady. She was in her 80s, and homeless.

I highly recommend that people shift to a credit union or local bank if you have not already done so. Corporate banks are precisely corporations whose sole function purpose is to profit off of you. They do not exist to help you with anything whatsoever. Move your money.

We must love liberation so deeply that we make it inevitable because without that, it will not come. Empire will fall yes, but only because the people take it down.

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.
Excerpt from a public letter Roald Dahl wrote encouraging people to vaccinate their children.

Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it. Then one morning, when she was well on the road to recovery, I was sitting on her bed showing her how to fashion little animals out of coloured pipe-cleaners, and when it came to her turn to make one herself, I noticed that her fingers and her mind were not working together and she couldn’t do anything.

“Are you feeling all right?” I asked her.

“I feel all sleepy,” she said.

In an hour, she was unconscious. In twelve hours she was dead.

The measles had turned into a terrible thing called measles encephalitis and there was nothing the doctors could do to save her. That was twenty-four years ago in 1962, but even now, if a child with measles happens to develop the same deadly reaction from measles as Olivia did, there would still be nothing the doctors could do to help her.

On the other hand, there is today something that parents can do to make sure that this sort of tragedy does not happen to a child of theirs. They can insist that their child is immunized against measles. I was unable to do that for Olivia in 1962 because in those days a reliable measles vaccine had not been discovered. Today a good and safe vaccine is available to every family and all you have to do is to ask your doctor to administer it.
