I anticipated getting my child care grant with my first stipend, but they did not process it in time. Which meant we were left with little money for the month. We only have $90 left in the account. We can't get by for the month. I would be grateful for any help that we could get.

I hope this serves as a reminder that police can get away with anything.

Instacart charged me 3 times for my order. We are now left with $50. If we could have help with $200 so it could hold us over until we can get our money back. Plus we still need to get some essentials for the house and the kids.

I'm so tired of the Star Wars fan base. People of color, especially Black actors, can never be leads without a total meltdown happening. The cancellation of the Acolyte is more than a disappointment, it is a reflection of racism between Disney and the media landscape.

There's no difference between Democrats and Republicans here. They both hate homeless people, and criminalize the poor.

first words Sonya Massey said at her front door were “don’t hurt me”

she was told “why would we hurt you, you called us”

when have those words meant anything when your black and woman in this country

when do those words protect you from not being murdered in your kitchen, in your bedroom, with your babies, or on your lawn

what is “reassurance”, in this place ?

rest in power Sonya Massey, and an abundance of love and power to Sonya’s family on this journey

Kamala is the top cop is the genocidaire is the border czar (told Guatemalans at immigration press conference: "Do not come.") Why are we still doing this after deporter-in-chief and war hawk Obama?!? it's been 20 years of "centrism does not defeat fascism;" move like we mean it.

For @republicjournal, I wrote about why a decolonial African feminism matters. From our pre-colonial ideas on gender to today’s tech exploitation, we must build lifelines for our futures from the legacies of our foremothers. Read my/our manifesto: https://t.co/JH0EXY4mTf

[Jairo I. Fúnez-Flores @Jairo_I_Funez]

I’m honestly impressed at how quickly so many people went from “ceasefire now,” “Free Palestine,” “decolonization is not a metaphor,” “end Israeli apartheid” to let’s vote for someone who is currently participating in genocide.

108 years ago, July 22 1916, a bomb exploded at the San Francisco Preparedness Day Parade, which called for the US to enter World War I, leaving 10 dead and 40 injured. Prominent local labor leaders Tom Mooney and Warren Billings were framed for the bombing and sentenced to death

Every Fourth of July I think about what colonial militias did to Cherokees in the summer of 1776. They waited until it was too late in the growing season for our corn to be replanted, invaded Cherokee towns and burnt our crops to the ground. So that we would starve.

We both tried getting a loan, but both of us got denied. We still need to cover the last of our expenses which are deposit for our new place which is $3426 and to cover the last 3 weeks of our airbnb which is $389. We really need the help as we have exhausted all of our options.

[Carla @xicanarquista]

Please share this far and wide as we really need the help. If 334 people donated $15 we'd have more than enough.

[Carla @xicanarquista]

We need to be able to cover our living costs because we can't afford to be homeless on the east coast with small children where we definitely don't have anywhere to go. Princeton hasn't been much help with moving costs. Everything has been put on us to cover the entire cost.

[Carla @xicanarquista]

After our lease ends on July 15 we're moving to Philadelphia for 5 weeks since we couldn't move in early at Princeton family housing nor could we extend our lease at UC Davis. We need help with $389 to cover the last couple of weeks in Philadelphia and for deposit in Princeton .
