📢Polls close in 30 minutes!📢

We are moments away from the finish line, Chicago. Let’s show the country that we will not be silenced, that we will not be ignored, and we will not be forgotten.

Stay in line. Make your voice heard. Punch 5.

A safer, stronger city is in sight.✊🏿

[Brandon Johnson @Brandon4Chicago]

If tonight is proof of anything, it’s proof that anything is possible. It’s proof that we can build a Chicago as big and generous as its promise.

And it’s proof that City Hall can truly belong to the people.

Tonight is just the beginning. Thank you, Chicago.

Let’s go. 💪🏿

I took over 25,000 steps today on the picket line with @UICUF. And I would roll 500 more.

Each step for my students.

Fair contract now.

[Jessica Shaw @docjshaw]

Can't make it out to the picket lines to support @UICUF faculty on strike at @thisisUIC?

Write a letter to make clear your support and tell @thisisUIC to settle a fair contract now: https://t.co/ZlDFRBNQQk

We're stronger together.

[UIC United Faculty @UICUF]

Me: He's a bit of a nudnik.

Partner: What's a nudnik?

Me: What do you mean, what's a nudnik? It's exactly what it sounds like. A nudnik.

Another perfect Yiddish lesson. He should pay me for this.

In anti-oppressive practice, we must look out for those moments when we think we get it, and others do not. That we have arrived, and others have not.

This just means we are creating new hierarchies. And indicates how much work there is still left to do.

Stay humble.

I just saw a mazda miata giving a jump to...another mazda miata.

We're living in a simulation.
