@DollyParton how are you doing?

[Paul Taylor @PaulTaylorTO]

Yesterday I realized that I cringe when I hear people referred to as "vulnerable". People aren't vulnerable, they have been made vulnerable by systems, institutions, the lack of an effective social safety net and governments that don't care.

TEACHERS ARE WRITING THEIR WILLS BEFORE BEING FORCED TO GO BACK TO CLASS AND IF THAT DOESNT PISS YOU OFF I DONT KNOW WHAT TO TELL YOU...

We shouldn't have to beg a predominantly white City Council to defund the police.
We shouldn't have to beg a predominantly white Prov. Gov't to halt evictions.
We shouldn't have to beg a predominantly white Fed. Gov't to prioritize Indigenous Sovereignty #DefundWhiteSupremacy

I know you’re all tryna go back to your daily lives but I need you to see this and I need you to understand this shit is not over. Rayshard Brooks was shot in the back for sleeping in a Wendy’s parking lot in his own fucking car.

1/ I am a third-year medical student. Yesterday, I was assigned a new patient. I hadn’t met them yet, but knew they had presented with liver-related symptoms. In preparation for morning rounds, I flipped through their chart and checked their lab work.

.@AOC's answer to "what does defund the police look like?" was "a suburb" and that is totally gonna be my answer from now on

[Matt Bellassai @MattBellassai]

over and over again i think of people who justify supporting republican nonsense because of some bullshit about being pro-life. absolutely fuck that. if you voted for him, people will die because of you. plain and simple.

[hatsune mitski @zephanijong]

idk who needs to hear this but the police are not allowed to kill people just because they are the police

Performative allyship is a PM marching against anti-black racism while refusing to end carding or calling out Donald Trump. Or marching in a climate justice rally while building pipelines.

Protests are for the people to be heard. Not for the most powerful to be noticed.

[Pariah Carey @DesmondCole]

This man started an account where he tweets exactly what the president tweets. He just got suspended.

the blackout tuesday does NOT mean to simply post a black picture and leave social media for the day. It means to stop promoting your own stuff for 24 hours, and instead amplify the voices & projects of Black creators, writers, directors, activists and more. pass it on.
