A constellation of care, co-imagined as liberation health centering solidarity 🕊️🍉😷

The r/Evolutionary clinical framework centers y/our intersectional struggles and radically imagines how to consistently evolve through y/our shared world, together. It addresses systemic and internalized oppression through trauma aware care in clinical exchanges.

Philando Castile was executed in his car in front of his daughter and girlfriend outside of Minneapolis in 2016.

He had a concealed carry permit and informed the officer.

He was brutally murdered.

This terror is not new.

[Namwali @namwalien]

Which was already the case when Philando Castile was killed a decade ago.

[Aasma Shaukat MD MPH @AasmaShaukatMD]

One of my former research assistants was killed by ICE in Minneapolis today😢

Alex was the kindest, sweetest human and a ICU nurse with a bright future ahead of him
May his soul rest in peace and this senseless carnage stop💔

Over 400 Americans are being killed by C0VlD every week right now, and you are just pretending that’s not happening or what?

[eofallthings @eofallthings]

The cruelty is the point. They want to exhaust and depress you into thinking nothing matters, into not trying to help anyone or yourself. Into thinking community, a dollar donation, your hope for the future - doesn't matter. It does. I promise.

and breath itself as the ultimate commons, we chart a path beyond pandemics and oppression weaponizing unbreathable air.

Will we meet it with carceral panic or the cultivated interdependence of a million mutual-aid exhales?

[The Cervitude Circle @DrPinnaPerez]

Respitory viruses and climate pollution may seem inevitable but abolitionist responses turn them from tools of control into diagnostics of justice. When we reimagine masks not as muzzles but megaphones, ventilation as reparations not real estate value,

2 Congressional Representatives in disagreement.
2 different Presidents speaking.

Only 1 was removed by law enforcement from his/her job.

Guess who?

“A nightmare scenario would be if mankind were targeted by a pathogen that attacks our frontal lobes and changes our personalities. Such a pathogen could bring an end to society as we know it. Unfortunately, the nightmare may be real and taking shape in SARS-CoV-2.”

The same people telling me “I had COVID and I’m fine” 1-2 years ago are now telling me about their new cancer, pulmonary embolisms, tachycardia, GI issues, autoimmune diseases etc…

[The Cervitude Circle @DrPinnaPerez]

I am a conduit for grief.

I am letting in,
to let go.

So, that I may let in,

again.

My classroom today:
6 students in person
6 online due to mild illness/childcare issues
8 totally absent who were too sick to Zoom in

These numbers are not normal!

There’s been an overwhelming amount of bad news over the last week, and those with chronic illness are struggling.

They’re worried about whether they will lose healthcare, federal assistance, be deported or targeted.

The constant stress is damaging to our baseline 🧵

Banning US scientists from communicating with the WHO threatens humanity.

Banning communication about emerging health risks like disease outbreaks & food recalls threatens humanity.

Understand, Trump HAS to cut off social programs, even if that means children go hungry, bc the tax cuts for the wealthiest of us will leave America bankrupt.

It doesn’t take a genius to figure this out, & it’s what America voted for…twice.

And we haven’t reached the bottom

[Nicole Lee Schroeder, PhD @Nicole_Lee_Sch]

Mask bans do not belong in higher ed. Cultures of protest do. Proud of all students who are engaging in political activism. Sincerely, a prof who will keep masking - for myself, for my students, for my community.
