"#Brazil’s foremost indigenous leader has called on the EU to impose trade sanctions to prevent ecological disaster and a 'social extermination' by her country’s far-right president-elect," Jair #Bolsonaro https://t.co/NEywWk5Vxk

On first day, Bolsonaro transferred indigenous land rights to #Brazil's ministry of agriculture, which has close ties to agribusiness.

In 2016, the US backed a soft coup against Dilma Rousseff, of the center-left Workers' Party (PT), a Bolsonaro opponent. https://t.co/jB4c2tzKH4

Pentagon is the world's biggest polluter, using more oil per day than 175 countries combined. It's exempt from int'l climate treaties. Money wasted on the Iraq war alone could've purchased the planetary conversion to renewable energy ht @jamesforpeace https://t.co/tZ59q0tsut

Today's action was a follow-up to our demand letter delivery and protest on April 10. SQL failed to respond to, let alone meet, the reasonable demands we presented https://t.co/wTfWQiuaY3

3 young kids and a tenant who lives in an apartment above the company office were moved to join us while we demonstrated outside and confronted Ravi, the SQL owner https://t.co/TuqMXQTNG9

[Syracuse Tenants United @syracusetenants]

We're inspired by the passion and leadership of tenants, especially directly impacted women of color, who led a direct action against SQL again this afternoon. "What do we want? Safe housing! When do we want it? Now!" https://t.co/0eawmYsKtn
