Two weeks ago, we protested in front of the White House to urge the Biden-Harris administration to do MORE to protect our vote. Today, we’re heading back. Watch the livestream here at 1 PM! ➡️ https://t.co/AmHOuHDQzb #votingrightsnow #nomoreexcuses @LWV @peoplefor @DFADCoalition

Thomás Lopez Jr., is co-founder of @iiyc5280, creating visibility for QT BIPOC youth through spiritual practice, civic engagement & non-violent direction action. #Indigenous people know public health & environmental health are the same. Thank you 🙏, Thomas, for all that you do.

[Stop the Money Pipeline @StopMoneyPipe]

What a week! ICYMI, the IEA shook the foundations of global finance on Tuesday by saying what we've been saying for years: "The world has a choice -- stop developing new oil, gas & coal fields today or face a dangerous rise in global temperatures."

Yeah sex is great but have you ever seen people dump the statue of a slave owner in the very river where his slave ships used to dock.

It should alarm you that the government is substantially more prepared to go to war with its own people than to provide basic humanitarian aid, testing, and care to those same people during a pandemic.

What happened to #GeorgeFloyd is not an AMERICAN problem it’s an INTERNATIONAL CRISIS! What happened to George Floyd is what happens to Black, Brown and Indigenous Peoples everyday, everywhere. THE WORLD SHOULD BE OUTRAGED! ✊🏽✊🏿✊🏽✊🏿

#KeystoneXL would bring hundreds of (predominantly male) workers to rural areas with little law enforcement. And where there are oil mancamps, there are spikes in drug and human trafficking. #NoKXL #MMIW https://t.co/WnrTRYt2vB

TOMORROW🔥tune into #FireDrillFriday: virtual edition to hear from activists, frontline leaders, and youth leaders as they share their stories and urge our government to prioritize public health over oil interests!

I am asking everyone to share this thread. The prime minister of India is concerned about his image and international press can save lives.
Shiv Vihar (Worst hit area hit by hindu mobs) has been made a barricaded zone because the damage is immense.
