For those of you who don’t know, I’m trying my hand at podcasting with @RuralRadical. I’ll be focusing on radical movements/people in rural spaces of past and present. No episodes out yet, but I’m super interested in hearing about what y’all would like to see covered 👇👇👇
*me uncontrollably sobbing*: hey have y’all seen Fellow Travelers yet? This show PUT ME THROUGH IT and I need to talk about it.
This show reminds us what our queer ancestors sacrificed and fought for so that we could progress forward. And how we owe it to them to keep fighting.
This footage is horrific. The IDF is the new age versions of the N*zis. If you want to say “I would have stood up against the holocaust back then”, then you must stand with Palestine now.
The sub story has everything. Billionaires. Logitech controllers. A stepson seeing Blink 182. Conversations about what is funny and what isn't. Rescue missions. The Titanic. Orcas.
And if you’re like ��but Liz, I don’t know any queer or trans or Black or brown people who live in these regions” then maybe that is actually the problem. But that’s something you can fix and we will all be better for it.
I will never understand abandonment mindset over the Deep South & Appalachia. These regions have the highest numbers of queer, trans, Black, and brown people living there compared to all other regions in the US. To give up on them is to hurt them even more than their govt is now.
And yeah, you can donate to some massive NGO that helps people get the care they need but, I promise you the most effective use of your dollars is to donate directly to a person living in these regions under unimaginably difficult circumstances
Well, the mask is off, if it was ever really on. As I predicted, the TikTok ban has evolved into blatant censorship of the internet. Let's talk about it. Big rant incoming, but if you enjoy continuing to have even some semblance of personal freedom, you're gonna wanna listen

Next time someone asks me what Settler Memory means I'll just show them this photo:
"Vote"... "End Racism"...."CHIEFS!"
If I ever do an updated edition, this photo will have to go in Chapter 4.

Oh yeah, and as ALWAYS this shit always comes back to abolition. These billionaires fund the police out the ass so they will protect their capital and safety when they poison us and we demand justice. The cops will protects these ruling class scum a thousand times over before us.
Meanwhile, in the real news. The same company responsible for one of the biggest environmental disasters in recent history which is devastating Palestine, OH, is also bankrolling Cop City in Atlanta, GA.
I need a lot more noise about what’s happening in East Palestine, OH. Yet ANOTHER enormous ecological disaster that will have implications on the health of all of us because we all collectively decided that the immediate well-being of working class rural people doesn’t matter.
