These 3 books have been revelatory for me this year, as far as thinking about how to address the current state of things using the blueprints provided by our ancestors.

None of this is new. We don’t have to panic & build everything from scratch.

You picking up what I’m putting down?

Everyone in Chicago saw how close this violence was if you interacted with these federal agents. There’s several photos of them directly pointing their weapons at members of the press. They will not stop their violence because that is their actual purpose. They exist to terrorize us into submission.

I been wanting to read this one ever since I saw it in my suggested.

The first gun control laws were enacted in post-civil war south to keep black ppl from owning them. Often Reagan is credit with the first, but Jim Crow really gets that honor.

Funny Side Note:
Americans guns were newer tech than
On a completely unrelated note, I think i know which book I wanna read today

Y’all are on here going back and forth with those pale people again!

Stop it! It’s Saturday.
Go spend some time with your nieces & nephews.
Go join your neighborhood 🧊 watch.
Go flick your bean.

Anything but arguing with them.
*whispers*
Because they know exactly what they are doing with that doe-eyed “how did we get here?” act.

They know how we got here. They just want to keep us focused on them and not us.

Reclaim your time & tell them to go read a book. It is 2026. Decenter them. You have better things to do!

I want people to really think what would happen if all those men end up in prisons around the country all at once.

We CANNOT jail these men, but they must be dealt with.

Take as much time with this skeet as you need, white people.
I don’t want the police to arrest those mfs because they’re all branches of the same tree. The roots are rotten.

Just had an epic FaceTime with one of my cousin groups. 🤣

All of us bundled up in the cameras, looking like our parents. Rambunctious kids & annoying teenagers in the background.

We really are the grown-ups now. Used to make mud pies together!

this is the key problem with continuously executing random members of the populace: you can’t kill everybody, and the ones you don’t kill are more likely to start squaring with the possibility of it than fleeing in terror
Only speaking personally, but today’s execution isn’t scaring me from protecting our neighbors, as some suggest is ICE’s goal. Nor am I angry with incandescent rage, in that I know such rage is unhelpful. Rather, I feel like it has forced me to truly accept that the same fate might befall me.

Don’t forget to periodically start your car in these sub-zero temps. A dead battery is the last thing you need.

For those not versed in activism, I cannot impress upon you the impact of the fact that ICE has killed two legal observers.

I am trained as a legal observer and have been present as one at many actions. The role of an LO is to be a non-participant at the action, to observe, and to document. 🧵
I am trying not to post on these events in this state of mind but: I hope people understand what the observers are doing is brave and dangerous.

Months into this, not one person in ICE or CBP or DHS or the White House has suffered a single visible consequence. Not fired, asked to resign, impeached, reprimanded, not even suspended, let alone arrested. Things will continue to deteriorate until that changes. That's it, that's the whole story.

I forgot Sonny Miles & Destin Conrad. Love love love their work.
Elmiene, Durand Bernarr, & Dram are the only ones I can name off the top of my head.

Ro James & Luke James haven’t released music in a while, AFAIK.

Sad state of affairs.
Where are the new Marvin Gayes? The Teddy Pendergrasses? The Big Luthers? I’m good on f*ckboy RnB. Point me to the real lover boys.

Depending on the circumstances, my sister & I are considering pooling our resources & raising our kids together, “mommune” style. It’s preferable to getting financially entangled with men again.

I’ve seen women around me reconsider partnership over how much they’re struggling financially. It’s all by design.
Money ain’t stretching like it was even a year ago. I can’t out earn this shit and I’m pissed bc I’m making the most money I’ve ever made. This is all by design to break us and make us dependent

I don’t currently have the energy & focus to be out doing the community work I want to do. Hopefully I can fix that later this year.

I need to psychologically work through the tension of being a mother who can’t be as aggressive as I want while being a woman who wants to burn this shit down.

Today is, among other things, a reminder that you don't get a general strike by posting that we should have a general strike.

You get a general strike—on the rare occasions you do—by the long slow slog of building organizing power with those around you in response to local conditions.

Looking at greenhouses because that’s how I am.

The covering on this one looks cheap, but I like the size. And I think I could anchor it so it doesn’t blow down the block during storms.
