Spectacular view of 100,000 people attending the #HandsOff march in NYC

BREAKING - U.S. team in quake zone told they are fired, per source. The 3-person disaster assessment team sent to Myanmar for the U.S. received termination notices while staying/sleeping outside β€” US AID workers were told on an all hands call today, per a source familiar.

The signs…. #Baltimore #HandOff

Salt Lake City showed up

My favorite part of #HandsOff at the MN Capitol was this band drowning out hate preachers behind them

So many things none of us will perceive will come out of today's gatherings. That's the point. People find each other, they take some strength and remember they aren't actually isolated and alone. This is fortification for what's to come.

Hands off our healthcare! Hands off our public education! Hands off our jobs! Hands off my 401k! Hands off my neighbor who has committed no crime! Hands off those Congressional seats that we are coming for in 2026!

To the world: We are fighting back. Our movement has been silenced by the media hereβ€”but we are not backing down. This is what our streets looked like across multiple cities. Tomorrow, there will be more of us! Raise a glass to freedom. β€”With love, Your American allies.

Old meme, but I'm getting a laugh out of "months"

Just saw my book, β€œWhite Too Long” was purged from the US Naval Academy library. Listed along w/ 380 other books from @antheabutler.bsky.social , @michaelericdyson.bsky.social , @revjimwallis.bsky.social , Bryan Massingale, and others. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

β€œI see protest as a genuine means of encouraging someone to feel the inconsistencies, the horror, of the lives we are living. Social protest is to say that we do not have to live this way." β€” Audre Lorde

#HANDSOFF #NYC

This is how we do it!

Wow! Updated estimates now put turnout at 2.3 million β€” and we’re still waiting on reports from coalition members in other areas, with some events yet to begin! If you’re free, come out and join us. Over 1,400 events are planned across the country.

This is what needs to happen in all of our states, which span 6 different time zones & nearly 4 million sq miles! πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ—½πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Keep going, for #Democracy, #DueProcess, & #FreedomOfSpeech everywhere, for everyone. And for those that wonder why there aren't millions yet in the streets today.... πŸ‘‡πŸ» (next)

We see you all! Incredible turnout so far across the country β€” current estimates put participation at around 750,000 and counting! More accurate numbers are still coming in, with many events yet to begin.

If you're wondering why many of your Jewish friends aren't at the big protests today, it's because today is Shabbat (the sabbath) and observant Jews refrain from work (which is a very broad category that for some includes driving, turning on lights, etc.) from sundown Friday until sundown Saturday.

Yay! So proud of us here in #Minnesota #TwinCities Let's keep being loud and supporting each other. The world is watching! #resist #protest #HandsOff

Small towns all over the country depend on federal services β€” which is why they're pouring into the streets today to say #HandsOff! Here is Ames, Iowa πŸ‘€

So proud of American Resisters today! #Handsoff

These numbers are wonderful and so motivating to see. Keep sharing! πŸ—½πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ—½ Now, why isn't the media carrying them live? @kare11.bsky.social @msnbc.com @cnn.com @foxnews.com.web.brid.gy @reuters.com The people need to see WE THE PEOPLE raising their voices. #HandsOff #Indivisible #Minnesota #Protests

BIG(!!!) crowd gathering in midtown Manhattan #HandsOff Protest ❗️❗️❗️

I am enjoying seeing all these #handsoff protests springing up around the country in towns both big and small. It's a hopeful thing to witness in such dark, scary times. And I love these DC protest signs.
