Good. One note though: repatriation isn't a "gift."
The Vatican returned 62 artifacts to Indigenous peoples from Canada, a historic restitution that is part of the Catholic Church's reckoning with its role in helping suppress Indigenous culture. n.pr/43T2xmD

Buddy Holly crosswalk in his Texas hometown to be removed following order on road safety
“It’s such a tasteful cross section and people like it. But what do you do?” City Council Member Christy Martinez-Garcia said of the crosswalk that depicts Holly's iconic glasses.

The Navajo Nation operates Canyon de Chelly meaning it was both open and protected during the government shutdown and I got to fulfill a long held ambition to see the Anasazi Ancestral Puebloan ruins and petroglyphs.

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Not frequently pictured in articles on the Chapel of the Holy Cross, 1954-56, but charming. Chapel designed by August K. Strotz of the firm of Anshen & Allen. No clue who did the mail box.

I should have known better than to try to ‘pop by’ a plenary indulgence site during a Jubilee Year. Dance troops and pilgrim groups by the dozen and one very tired looking priest. But still a 20th c architectural must-see for the art history faithful! Chapel of the Holy Cross, Sedona.

Finally made it to the Forestiere Underground Gardens A Sicilian son of citrus growers arrived in Fresno after digging the NYC subway for 3yrs, realized it was cooler underground and built himself a resort rabbit Warren of interlocking caves open to the sunshine above.

Do you actually know what Disability Justice means, or are you putting together "Disability" & "Justice," 2 words you know the meaning of separately, & assuming its meaning? 👀
If so, PLEASE take just a few moments to educate yourself about the 10 Disability Justice principles from Sins Invalid! 🙏🏽

As a registered social worker for 15 years until my regulatory body failed to call for a ceasefire after witnessing genocide for all of 2024, a writer who is extensively published on equity issues, & a fat brown queer disabled immigrant woman on Turtle Island, we must discuss Disability Justice! 👀

Elmer’s Bottle Tree Ranch on Route 66 with a sound of chimes, birds, trucks, and train. Light illuminates the bottles like stained glass in the peaceful grove. I’d like to think Duchamp and John Cage would have recognized their descendant. Begun 2000. Elmer Long died in 2019.

Joshua Tree, not in Joshua Tree. In case you don’t know, they grow over a wide swath of Southern California and can even be found in some lucky people’s front yards. I’ll never tire of California. Redwood trees to Joshua trees, what a range of wonders!

Some of John Outterbridge’s (b. 1933 North Carolina) first memories were of his mother ironing laundry for White people with a number of irons heated on the stove and a towel wrapped around their hot handles. “First Poet, Olivia” 1993. California African American Museum.
