When Elon Musk has ten times more Twitter followers than Greta Thunberg... you know we are all doomed 🤦🏽‍♀️

[Lyla June Johnston @lylajunetweets]

Do not be scared of the world. It’s hard to love the world when we are scared of the world. All the earth, of which humans are made, needs love at this time.

To the Sierra Club director who said, “Climate change is more imprtnt than #BlackLivesMatter”:

When hurricanes destroy homes in Louisiana, more white folks can afford to move to safe places than black folks can because racism still impoverishes and disenfranchises black lives.

Today we are speaking out for Mother Earth. Trump’s proposed changes would:
-Exclude public from environmental review process.
-Ignore and exclude the indirect impacts on the surrounding environment.
-Have corporations police themselves doing their own NEPA analysis

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS = CALI GOLD RUSH (1848-55)

“A war of extermination will continue to be waged between the two races until the Indian race becomes extinct.”

– California Governor Burnett, January 1851

California gold = Indigenous blood = Land grabs = #ChangeTheMascot

[Lyla June Johnston @lylajunetweets]

Thank you NBC for discussing the mascot fiasco. It’s one thing to nearly annihilate an entire race of people. It’s another to then turn them into a distorted, caricaturized prop for your zero-sum, beer soaked paradigm.

Yesterday, we broke the fast around 1:30 PM. The nurse said I lost a total of 10.3 pounds.

I was overjoyed to be with all the people who came out. We gave good strong speeches and then the people spoke their piece.

Day five beginning and I’m doing well. We want to apologize that I won’t be able to get to the Capitol steps until about 9am today. We had the dawn prayer there and it was nice and gentle. Now we have to move my things in the church that is hosting me from one room to ...

[Lyla June Johnston @lylajunetweets]

I’m feeling strong today! Keep praying with me, it’s working. I can’t do this on my own, it’s going to take all of us. Our collective thought and action is more powerful than we think.
