Today is Election Day! UFW volunteers are getting out the vote in AZ, CA, NV & WA State. They support Kamala Harris who's been a loyal friend of working people vs Trump whose campaign is built on hate & fear - terrorizing communities by saying immigrants are criminals. #Vote

One of my family members is able to vote for the first time since leaving prison because Minnesota made it legal to vote while on parole and that makes me very happy. He sent a photo of him and wife and kids at the polls. 🥹🥹🥹

Here's Philly rap legend Freeway canvassing with LeVar Burton singing the Reading Rainbow theme. You can see how much it touched Burton. National media loves to hate Philly because of the Eagles fans from the Northeast, but fuck all that noise Philly is the best.

A study in Nature finds that two archaeological sites located over 2,000 m above sea level in the mountains of Uzbekistan were major urban centres. The discovery may warrant a rethink of the role of peripheral communities in shaping trade and political interactions along the Silk Road. 🧪🏺
