The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

They are still killing, starving, still destroying everything. There is and will never be a true ceasefire until Palestinians are truly free and no longer under apartheid being ethnically cleansed from Gaza or West Bank.

They’re already saying they have no intervention of stopping the killing.

In September, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) refuted Kash Patel’s claim that no victims were trafficked, revealing the FBI holds names of at least 20 prominent men in the music industry, finance, politics, royalty, and banking which victims were trafficked to. #OpDeathEaters

Columbus bragged in letters about raping 9-year-old girls & selling them into slavery.

So of course, Trump is using him to replace Indigenous Peoples' Day,
calling Columbus the "first American hero."

Maybe he can rename it, Trump-Epstein-Columbus Day. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Antifa again terrorizing the community with music, smiles, and civic joy. Imagine the horror of people being fed from gardens, reading in libraries, honoring MLK, and driving Subarus. Civilization clearly hanging by a thread of decency.
