Winning union recognition is only the start, writes @jazbrisack. Union Now, a new labor nonprofit, hopes to help workers survive what comes next. An important May Day read from an organizer at the heart the Starbucks union campaign. https://t.co/NirUarf5o4
I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran.
This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war.
Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons.
I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late.
Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.
There will always be trans and queer children who will be born here. I refuse to let the south be a place where they do not see people like them. I cannot allow queer southern children's birthright to be guaranteed minimum 18 years of torture before they can escape.
Contacts in Gaza are all reporting the same thing tonight: Israeli air strikes have resumed at what feels like full force across the strip. The only reason anyone is still calling this a ceasefire is because not a single shot is being fired at Israel.
I VISITED A #BLINKIT WAREHOUSE TO REPORT ON THE #GigWorkersStrike
Here's what I found:
1. Himanshu, 25, said, "We've told our families we ride safely. But the truth is, we jump red lights. Overspeeding has become second nature."
2. Your ID can be blocked and you can be labeled "strike enabler" if you participate in a strike.
in your 20s you will meet an organizer who will tell you to drop everything and get a job at a non-union workplace with the goal of organizing it
it is very important that you listen to that organizer
This is beyond horrific.
ICE is responsible for the well-being of people in immigration detention and it is failing that responsibility miserably. Mr. Ge’s loved ones and the American people need answers immediately. https://t.co/6Gjk2wXNgy
"A man ran to the Broadview ICE facility today searching for his wife of five years. They were following the legal process, showing up for her court case, when ICE took her to another room and disappeared her. He tracked her phone to Broadview where the signal cut off. Police told him to just look up her name online. He sat in a parking lot weeping, confused, with no answers." 🥹😭👇
