Posting on behalf of my daughter who's not on bsky.

I think about this 2 minute speech a lot. Ella Baker with no time for applause and agreement, only time to remind everyone about what organizing and solidarity require

Love to see you making that good trouble Kim!

I was just about to post this as well!

Thanks so much Jim! Be sure to also check out collaborators like @lizloeb.bsky.social @revvoelkel.bsky.social @revashleyhoran.bsky.social and @mnhonortax.bsky.social

@jintermill.bsky.social is an amazing resource if you (like me) are "reparations curious" and looking to learn more. Here's a good starting point: www.mnipl.org/take-action/reparations/

It's Thanksgiving week in the US. If you live in Minnesota, please broaden your gratitude to include www.mnhonortax.org to acknowledge that we’re still on Dakota land. Better yet, make it a recurring contribution as I have. 🙏 Boosts appreciated!

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing.

They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays.

The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k.

An amazing post. Needed by those of us who aren't so young as well

If you have a few $$ to spare, you can put it to good use right here. Local single mom needs your help to stave off an eviction and catch up on some bills.

I’ll match the first $250.
Who is in?

I'll match your match so whoever contributes basically gets that amount tripled (up to the first $250).

On October 13, I'll join hundreds of my fellow Minnesotans riding our bikes to raise money for hashtag#Alzheimer's research. If you or anyone you love has been touched by the disease, please consider donating. Many thanks! 🙏
