Everyone is welcome here 🌈

Before heading to Helsinki for #ISLS25, I’m spending a few days w/ global youth, politicians, activists, organizers, NGO leaders, lawyers, judges, & practitioners to discuss moving from talk to action in meaningfully implementing the UNCRC (Art. 12) in ways that don’t deprive children of liberty

They’re stealing from us. Call it what it is: a damn robbery, not a budget.

Imagine if instead of punching down on disabled people and insisting we can “try harder” our way out of chronic illness… the non disabled would try harder to accept us? They could stop expecting us to hide our suffering for their comfort. They could face the difficult realities of chronic illness.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

This is why religious extremism has no place in politics.

Joni saying "we all are going to die" has caused me sleepless nights. Not because of what she said, but because of what she didn't. She didn't say that policies dictate who will die prematurely. Nor did she tell you that she supports such policies. So here I am, telling you what she forgot to say.

Just released. My Nature piece: "Never before has the USA seen such an anti-intellectual, anti-science assault... History tells us that there are times when the dangers of inaction become sufficiently threatening to individuals or the planet that scientists... rdcu.be/eo3Hb

Richest nation in the history of the world decides it cannot afford to have a national government.

This is evil: they plan to force families who want to sponsor unaccompanied refugee children to pay $8500 for their release from inhumane detention facilities.

There’s no place for homophobia, antisemitism or Islamophobia in a world of billions. The cruelty of this murder, against the backdrop of a government that has been amplifying violence and emboldening violent offenders, should be a watershed moment. Look at what your hate is creating Republicans.

Standing Bear Network: “Right now, thousands of our people are stranded. Elders. Children. Families. We call on all levels of government, emergency response teams, military, and every capable hand to step forward. We cannot allow another tragedy to unfold while the world watches.” 🧵

If you’re wondering if US climate researchers are freaking out, yeah they’re freaking out.

“One thing about researching world around you is that it becomes a bit friendlier once you know it better. If you see a random spider- you get scared... And then, you learn names. Now, it is an orbweaver… a friend… You now know their names, and, if you respect them- they become allies of yours.”

There is no reason we can’t provide all disabled people a living wage Forcing us to live in legislated poverty and subjecting us to dehumanizing & difficult applications and appeals processes is a political *choice* Society undervalues us. They won’t fight for us So governments deem us expendable

Rodney Taylor is a double amputee suffering extreme medical neglect at an ICE detention facility in Georgia. The reason he's detained? "A burglary conviction he received as a teen & which Georgia pardoned him for in 2010" When ICE took him, he was 2 days away from receiving new prosthetics /1

America needs help
