A crucial part of my writing process is to include a blizzard of exclamation points and italicized words, then go back and remove almost all of them. In that first moment I need to let my enthusiasm shine through. Only later can I seem a bit more grown-up about everything.

@TDSB It's time to stand in solidarity with anti-oppressive educators #JusticeForJavier https://t.co/aA2dnFfT4q

Why choose massive increases to policing when you could have chosen paid sick days?

[BLAC Ontario @BLAC_Ontario]

Black Ontarians can contact BLAC if they experience issues with the police or are in need of legal services during this stay at home order.

super cool that the Ontario government saw that Covid disproportionately affects low-income, racialized people and decided the solution was to criminalize them for it

[Saron Gebresellassi @SaronGeb]

Ontario leadership is gearing up to expand police powers. Ontario has not offered science or data to support the thesis that expanded police powers will reduce the spread of covid19.

@h3lli5 This, sir, is your finest work. 😍

[Nora Loreto @NoLore]

Feels like a good moment to remind all Canadians that police in Ontario literally shot and killed a baby this past year and the guy who did it is likely working right this minute.

[Nora Loreto @NoLore]

For a country that specializes in coups, Americans seem incredibly ignorant about what a coup entails.

I don’t think diversity training can fix this.

[Doctors For Defunding Police @DrsDefundPolice]

For every single story we see & hear about police misconduct (like the one yesterday in Ottawa), there are hundreds if not thousands of these constant pervasive interactions where police abusing their power causes immeasurable psychological harm to our Black youth in Canada.

I'm thinking about camut and sisyphus and the habits of living: how purpose undermines ritual, how the anxiety of doing hollows out the ceremony of life.

[Nora Loreto @NoLore]

Folks, here is a very important thread about COVID-19 measures and why they will not slow the spread of COVID enough.

It's simple -- the most aggressive public health measures are missing the biggest driver of the pandemic: large industrial workplaces.

[jessa minute @jessamynsline]

@ErinsoroS @blacklikewho That question brought me to tears this morning.
