Once one person trusted me enough to talk, my number spread through the Mohican Young Star Academy network. Over and over, I heard the same thing about the residential treatment facility for boys: someone is going to get hurt.

Today, we sent a letter to @themarshallproject.org‬ leadership expressing concern about their denial of bargaining obligations. Management has repeatedly denied members Weingarten rights, engaged in an illegal layoff, and more — we need your help to demand that management bargain in good faith.

I edited this comic for poet Jehad Abu Dayya and artist Esraa Elbanna, currently displaced in Deir alBalah. They wrote and drew it together from their tents. It is a very intentional work with many layers to it, I hope you read it (1/5)

Libraries are one of the most radical social institutions we have, because they’re based on the idea that *everyone* has the right to information, for free. It’s also what makes them crucial to democracy. I will never stop yelling about this!
Poor people use libraries. Rich people shut them down because they don't *want* poor people to read.

Tomorrow on Movement Memos, I talk with Lewis Raven Wallace about the parallels between copaganda and corporate media coverage of Israel, the "just asking questions" approach to attacking trans people, mask bans, and more. I am looking forward to sharing this episode with you all. ❤️

We spoke to CBS New York about the issues we’ve had with NYPD trying to disrupt our distros.

Said a lot more than what got included here but the main message is: we’re here to stay.

The number of artists, writers, creators killed, displaced, demoralized in Gaza and the West Bank...is by design.
‘You could be looking at the last surviving works by Gaza’s artists’
An exhibition in the West Bank attempts both to capture and counteract the erasure of Palestinian life and culture in Gaza, even as its artists are killed.

For Kholood Eid, “the act of documenting is a way to resist erasure—to assert that we exist, that we have a history, and that our lives are important enough to be seen and remembered.”
The View from Palestinian America
In Kholood Eid’s photographs of Missouri, taken six months into the war in Gaza, the quiet act of documenting life is a kind of protest against erasure.

Florida is charging formerly incarcerated people $50 a day even if they’re no longer in prison. The “pay to stay” fee is based on the length of the original sentence, so even when they're released they must keep paying for a prison bed they’re not using. www.abcactionnews.com/news/local-n...
Pay to stay: Florida inmates charged for prison cells long after incarceration
It's a common saying: You do the crime, you do the time. But when people are released from prison, freedom is fragmented. It marks the start of new hardships, impacting families and communities.
