This was a piece I needed to read. Maybe you will, too.

organizingmythoughts.org/we-have-to-m...

There is no moment when all is lost, and the credits roll. There is no cue that we can all throw our hands up now and give up on each other. No matter how upsetting the headline, no matter how frustrating the organizing meeting, no matter how pompous and arrogant that one guy was, no matter how tired we get of this bullshit or of each other-if you're still here, feeling, thinking, and hoping for a way out of this, if you're still holding onto your values and each other, it's not over. If you are still breathing and trying, it's not over. It's not too late, because too late is a take idea. The people around you will always be worth fighting for, as will your community, as will your humanity.

As Rebecca Solnit wrote in Not Too Late:
Changing the Climate Story from Despair to Possibility, "It is late. We are deep in an emergency. But it is not too late, because the emergency is not over. The outcome is not decided. We are deciding it now."

AOC: And they are able to radicalize a generation of young boys in particular, away from healthy masculinity and into an insecure masculinity that requires the domination of others who are poorer, browner, darker, or a different gender than them.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

I love a reminder, especially one as gorgeous as this - that for all our human drama, there are forces that know nothing of our petty chaos and they just keep on going.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.
