Some really helpful resources for resisting fascism where you live

Thank you. I didn’t learn about the Jackson State students until I was an adult.

Voter suppression is at most risk in the 2025 state-level elections in AL, FL, LA, MS, MO, NH, PA, & VA Let’s keep an eye on them to make sure the elections stay safe, free, & fair Find out more in my NEW piece @brookings.edu 👇—TN www.brookings.edu/articles/us-...

Because the reporting across outlets hasn’t mentioned it I want to stress that Justice Jackson referenced the courageous & resolute stance of federal judges J. Shelly Wright in Louisiana and Frank Johnson in Alabama who issued school desegregation orders in the face of “Massive Resistance” to Brown.

Ship carrying activists, aid to Gaza attacked by Israeli drones. Yet another war crime. Israel is using starvation of civilians as a tactic. Please spread this information it's it's being significantly censored 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

that is a not inconsiderable number of people out on a few hours' notice on a friday afternoon in a not exactly gigantic city for a county judge

The constitution (the fourth amendment in this case) is being ignored, and if courts don't push back, will be effectively amended by the Trump administration. newrepublic.com/post/194442/...

Abuses of the tax code was one of the items in the original impeachment case against Nixon. Using the tax code to selectively target enemies - and decimate civil society - is the next step in the authoritarian agenda.

Rage and heartbreak are wrecking me atm. I'm aghast at what yet still has to come from this utter perversion of governance.

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Been thinking a lot lately about the morals of Jesus of Nazareth. As a tan man from the Middle East, if Jesus were an undocumented American immigrant, I wonder if angry mobs would get ICE to deport him — especially for speaking out against greed and advocating for the poor.

The Oscar-winning documentary, No Other Land, is available to rent and screen at nootherland.com from now until May 9. All of the proceeds will support the Masafer Yatta communities featured in the documentary.

1/2: We have reason to believe that events on 4/19 and/or the 50501 Movement may be misrepresented by the Trump admin in an attempt to justify the use of military force. Let us be clear: our movement is pro-democracy and firmly grounded in non-violence.

Thank you. We were trying to get this out quickly last night. It’s no excuse, we will do better.

Don’t forget to show up tomorrow. These protests have Donald rattled.

In today’s atmosphere, it’s obvious why a book warning of totalitarian censorship would be in the American Library Association’s list of most commonly challenged books

You’ve probably seen people mention the 3.5% Rule. But do you know what it really means? 1/

the american electoral system is basically 500,000 information-resistant people across a handful of states taking a guess and then going "haha! oops!" every two years. this process takes 18 months and costs four trillion dollars every time
