One small thing you can do today: ICE is ramping up in Maine. Food For All is delivering meals to 300 families that can't leave their homes. They need $7k a day to continue operations. The Culture Study community is raising enough to cover a day—join us?

In the current environment we need to raise a $7,000 a day to sustain our operations

I wrote about how murders of people seen as “good” tend to galvanize the public against state violence in helpful ways. But to establish a just system in the long run, it's critical to recognize harm done to those who would never make the cut as saints.

Why is the msm outside of Maine not covering this? It seems like a huge and very troubling story to me. ICE coming to observers houses or calling them on the phone warning them to back off??!! www.pressherald.com/2026/01/23/i...

BREAKING — Mayor of Lewiston, Maine posts on FB that ICE is coming to the city imminently. This confirms my reporting the agency is planning a surge in the city and state generally.

Lewiston is home to a large Somali-American population, which made up 4.6% of the population as of the 2020 census.

my teacher friend asked, if people have more to give, to help meet the goal on this rent relief fund they have set up for families unable to live home due to their status.

if we did $2k in 20 minutes we can do $24k by the end of the day, right?

please amplify!

Not just the encampments. People like Kristof admire the protests that happen ELSEWHERE. They critique those that happen where they live. This is a feature not a bug.
I’m old enough to remember the anti-genocide encampments y’all defamed.

Oh my god
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.

This could be you.
