This one’s for the little Alexia who delved into school as a distraction to life, the little Alexia who never felt good enough, the one who for some years barely showed up class but then feel in love with learning again. This past year hasn’t been easy but I graduated!!!

@toadslayerr wait me too

Palestinian women and their Indigenous olive trees can never ever be uprooted. That’s a fact to reckon with this International Women’s Day 🇵🇸

[Priti Gulati Cox @PritiGCox]

Until liberation 🇵🇸

Maybe I'm overly sensitive bc of my line of work, but why does *every single part* of this economy feel like an obstacle course? Booking a flight, seeing a doctor, getting insurance, finding housing, taking your animal to the vet... Are people just numb to all this?

[aja monet @aja_monet]

some yall wan spend all day in ur Substacks, twitter feeds, and IG reels giving ur followers opinions none of us asked for abt critical conditions in our day and yet we see you at no community events, centers, or spaces of organizing around these conditions. cultural or otherwise

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

this. the word community has been misused so often it’s lost meaning. community isn’t ur friend group or ur instagram followers.

[rez princess @chakenbake]

Community is not transactional exchange. Community is not only your own family, friends or people you like. Being in community is about everyone, even those we don’t like, having their needs met and being supported. Reject individualism, embrace community and mutual aid

Meri Kirihemete but I want everyone to remember Jesus is Palestinian and the churches on his homeland have been bombed. Free Palestine always

It cracks me up when people say “i know the type of person you are” you don’t. You could study me your entire life & still not know a fraction of me or who I am. Thank you

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

nobody inherently better for doing a certain type of work

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

I see the word grassroots organizing misused so often in the youth climate activism space it’s lost all meaning

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

it’s ok to admit ur doing another thing ie. building a legal nonprofit, engaging in UN spaces, being an influencer/educating folks online, increasing access to green jobs, doing research, mobilizing folks for a big march etc etc etc

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

people aren’t ready to talk about how most unions are deeply problematic, up-hold the status quo, are a boys club & union leadership is so disconnected from the struggles of the working class

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

but yes also rlly aware of how the nonprofit industry complex was created to stop radical organizing

[Alexia Leclercq @eeealexia]

the nonprofits who do this were never organizing in the first place. yes they might provide a service that is helpful but unless we organize we won’t create systemic change. and the frontline organizers never had a budget to begin with so this doesn’t apply.

My heart cries for the land. Possible largest oil spill in Wisconsin history is ongoing. 69k+ gallons so far. Enbridge Line 6 Pipeline. Get pipelines off Indigenous lands

The lowest life expectancy in the US is the neighborhood next to the most prestigious hospital system in the US, Johns Hopkins.

ICE just deported four kids and their mother to Reynosa. Two of the kids are U.S. citizens. The father, also a citizen, was left behind in Texas and says the family was waiting for a court hearing when they were suddenly taken into custody after receiving a call to reschedule. https://t.co/fEculX8b4G
