it's really funny how the NYPD perp walked Luigi Mangione as an obvious power play so they could pretend they're badasses but instead they just look like they're leading Jesus to the cross

YOU CANNOT TELL ME OTHERWISE
Making trump supporters mad by demonstrating common sense is my favorite thing to do
A Bug’s Life, 1998
While some of us are cozy enuf that the segregationist fascism and white supremacist terrorism (let’s call it what it is) of the Trump regime will not touch us directly (or immediately), many more across colorlines and communities will face intimate, everyday violences in the workplace, in housing, in healthcare, in classrooms, on the streets, and in safe spaces.
❌ Using incarcerated laborers to work farms and fire disasters comes from the same conviction leasing and legal slavery systems that followed the Civil War.
❌ The discriminatory policies against our trans kinfolks and queer relatives is rooted in the same legislation that policed and persecuted Black folks in the 50s and 60s.
❌ The politics of school vouchers and book bans are crafting covert ways to re-segregate our education systems (and feeding school-to-prison pipelines).
❌ Targeting student-activists, administrators, and educators on college campuses reinforces academic imperialism and state-funded censorship via learning.
As the oceans rise and the fires rage, we MUST recover, restore, and reimagine the teachings and traditions of our elders and ancestors who left their recipes and writings. The Harriets, Zoras, Marys, Corettas, Octavias, Tonis, Angelas, and many foremothers (and siblings) before us didn’t just learn their lessons in classrooms, but on porches, in kitchens, in gardens, and workshops where they nurtured their wisdoms, knowledge, and knowings through community and solidarity. Their memories captured and collected across books and stories allow us to manifest marches and movements that transform our mothers’ gardens into oceans, divine and deep.
From antislavery to antiracism, we must return to our underground gardens and growing spaces to bring forth the same abolitionist ideals and collective actions that birthed our long (and continuing) civil rights movement.
