It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

If you’re impacted by Trump policies…write it down This doesn’t mean put it on social media. Physically write it down Illegally detained? Deported? Fired? Put on McCarthy-esque list targeting DEIA? Unable to access abortion or reproductive healthcare? Forced to de-transition? Write it ALL down

When the election first happened, I created a #resource list—everything from immigration lawyers to abortion advocacy to #LGBTQ support. In the days since I know we are feeling fatigue, maybe despair. But listen: find the helpers. They are out there. 🗃️🧪♿️📚🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🩺 go.bsky.app/QRfTWhT

The Tulsa Race Massacre was not committed by an uncontrolled mob but was the result of “a coordinated, military-style attack” by white citizens, the Justice Department said in a report. It was the first time the U.S. government has given an official account of the 1921 massacre of Black residents.
