“Incarcerated youth firefighters” is INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!

[adam mahoney (he/him) @AdamLMahoney]

Throughout Los Angeles, ash, smoke, wind & flames are rewriting the landscape & although less publicized, Black history.

My latest gets into what is being lost, & how disaster-capitalism + the collapse of the insurance system will make it so much worse.

This country is a hellscape: Imprisoned teenage boys & young men 18 to 24 are being used to battle the wildfires. 95% are Black, Latino, or Filipino; earn between $2.20 & $4 per hour, plus an additional $1 an hour when they’re actively fighting fires

While celebrity losses grab headlines, the Eaton Fire has destroyed nearly 1,000 structures in Altadena, displacing Black families who’ve shaped the community for generations. Here's a brief history of the community. https://t.co/CMU4RizMs0

Hundreds of incarcerated firefighters are fighting the wildfires raging across southern California for $5.80-$10.24 per day

When responding to disasters, they may earn $26.90 over a 24-hour shift

There’s basically a media blackout on this story. Genocide isn’t newsworthy?

[Harsha Walia (she/her) @HarshaWalia]

It was actually under the Democratic Party that an entire immigration enforcement apparatus bent on expanding detention and deportation, criminalizing migration through prosecutions, and militarizing the border was cemented.

Community is not an abstraction. It’s not a grand holding hands moment with a thousand people; community is nurturing relationships and trust with a few, it’s showing up, and then doing that again and again for a few, & then a few many. It’s SHARING power, resources etc.

Wild that the US is about to set a new record for homelessness and it’s barely a blip in the presidential race.

“We don’t have a housing system, we have an unhousing system."

this interview with @tracyrosenthal_ by @MsKellyMHayes is excellent on the deep causes of America's homelessness catastrophe and the brutal terrain of criminalization unhoused people now face: https://t.co/DRqeovHOOw

45years ago today #AssataShakur was liberated by her Comrades from the Clinton Correctional Facility for Women in NJ without a single shot fired. Long Live the Spirit of Sekou Odinga and Zayd Shakur!

Strength to Sundiata Acoli and FREE Kamau Sadiki and ALL Political Prisoners!

Toni Cade Bambara, one of my many guardian angels, always knows when to visit with her ever pertinent question: “what are we pretending not to know today?”
