We demand the release of @bradlander and the release of ALL New Yorkers who have been abducted by ICE simply for showing up for their immigration hearings.
JFREJ has issued a call for people to mobilize to 26 Federal Plaza to demand the release of @bradlander after he was detained by masked ICE agents for demanding to see a warrant.

To the healers, spiritualists, artists, revolutionaries:
We chose to be alive at this moment. Don’t be daunted by the erratic nature of these current times. Tap into your medicine and offer it to everyone in your orbit. We will win and colonialism will fall.
Believe it.

Reposting, there’s over 200 listed. This is the Displaced Black Families Directory. Reminder that Altadena is one of the oldest Black middle class neighborhoods in LA cause it was one of the first to allow Black people to buy homes. There’s generations. docs.google.com/spreadsheets…

Today I went to pick up my wife’s prescription at the pharmacy.
Every month it’s $188.00.
Been that way for a few years. Went up from $164.00.
TODAY:
$42.00.
I was like “Holy shit”.
Pharmacist said “That’s the new price”.
It may not seem like much to some but it helps us!

A Modern Day Lynching in Missouri
Missouri Republicans and the Conservative Supreme Court ignored the pleas of prosecutors and just executed Marcellus Williams, an innocent Black man. The hoods are off.

Far too often when an elected official says COVID is over or pushes for a mask ban, they test positive for COVID soon after. We are living in an age of reckless denial.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams, who has been pushing a mask ban for NYC, has again tested positive for COVID.
A timely reminder that now is a good time to wear a mask, and to call your representatives and tell them to speak out against mask bans.

Every time I see another “masks return to hospitals” story it reminds me of how completely unjustified the decision was to remove masking from any hospital in the first place.
We are in an active pandemic!

COVID surges throughout the year. That means the government should provide free vaccines, tests, and high-quality masks throughout the year. Anything less is not sufficient.

A gift card, free chai, a meal at a Pakistani restaurant, anything, to the first reporter who CAN PLEASE CALL OUT TRUMP'S LIE THAT DEMOCRATS ABORT BABIES AFTER BIRTH.
Please. By my count today was the 3rd time he said it without any pushback.

Yes. We need one more thing to make this is a truly good day:
For @CoriBush to win her primary.
She introduced the Ceasefire resolution and AIPAC has thrown absolutely everything at her.
She is a people's champion, no matter what happens.
We need her voice in Congress.

My latest column for @TeenVogue on how proposed mask bans are the new ugly laws and how the mask is the new unsightly marker of deviant individuals
Many thanks to @broadwaybabyto @Aoiferocksitout @BeingCharisBlog & @Eman_Rimawi for talking with me!

This is fucked. We are about to have 180k people rounded up, many who are likely to go into some form of psychological shock from having the little bit of hope they had left forcibly uprooted on top of having the hottest days ever in history this week.

Its not just "one issue".
It's about America and normalized violence.
About supporting supremacist hierarchies at home and abroad.
And about how the global majority knows that the Palestinian condition is the most stark reminder of the colonial, apartheid condition.
Caroline Rothstein retweeted
People need to realize Israel/ Gaza is not just a "one issue" thing. Or just a foreign policy issue.
It encompasses a multitude of litmus tests for America around free speech, journalist freedom, American militarism, policing, protest, foreign interference, and yes, racism.
