"the girlfriend of one of the founders of antifa"
#Partisans
Comic panel from Partisans: A Graphic History of Anti-Fascist Resistance. Two young women in mid-length dresses stand facing into an open doorway with guns pointed down. Speech bubble from woman on the right: “BASTARD!” Another young woman is in the background on a bicycle on the road. A man lies on the floor inside the room with blood on his shirt and appears dead. Narrator: The three girls worked well together. Freddie scouted out the Nazis and traitors while Hannie and Truus liquidated them.”

I want to live in a Toronto that can support a paper like The Grind.

Because a city that can sustain local indie media is a city that can be shaped by local indie media.

Help The Grind reach our summer fundraising goal!

The Grind @thegrindto.bsky.social · 28d
We've been so busy publishing this summer that we didn't push our fundraising campaign, and the season is almost wrapped! Can you chip in so The Grind can keep putting out hard-hitting stories in Toronto?

Support here: www.thegrindmag.ca/support-the-...
A graphic reading "The Grind's summer fundraising goal is $7,000. Help us reach it by Sept 21. Keep local, independent journalism alive in Toronto! thegrindmag.ca/support " And there is a red and green progress bar showing $1,500 of the way to $7,000.

Canada’s “elbows up” plan for asserting sovereignty looks less like defending against American aggression and more like doubling down on the denial of Indigenous rights in the service of short-term economic gain.

Canada’s “elbows up” nationalism may look like resistance to Trump, but it risks repeating the colonial violence it claims to oppose. Ellen Gabriel and @seancarleton.bsky.social warn that patriotism built on erasing Indigenous struggles makes real reconciliation impossible.
