today was an especially depressing day of news. god protect palestinians in these last few days of ramadan. growing up, palestinian apartheid felt like such a lonely struggle. seeing the responses online today makes me feel a little more hopeful. but i’m just sad man

@angrybrowndyk3 Yes, structures to cling to whiteness proximity. Some Latin American feminists have been sharing similar ideas for decades. Especially in feminist/anarchist/queer circles. Recommend Sylvia Rivera Cusicanqui, an Aymara feminist (Bolivia). Also Sayek Valencia from Tijuana.

It’s 2021 and the largest newspapers in this country still don’t have tribal affairs desks.

Over 500 sovereign nations within the US and not one department at these massive media giants dedicated to covering any of it? That’s a failure of the industry.

what am i supposed to do with this information

[#ExcludedNoMore @FEWCoalition]

BREAKING: NYS budget establishes first-in-the-nation Excluded Workers Fund!

This victory comes after one year of statewide organizing efforts from the #FundExcludedWorkers Coalition — led by impacted workers, culminating in two hunger strikes.

History is made today!

[Jennifer Sahn 🌻 @throwin_shadows]

Some exciting news: I’m positively thrilled to be joining @highcountrynews as editor in chief. I’m looking forward to making a magazine about the West, its issues, conundrums, myths, and possibilities. So many stories to tell. Let's do this.

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

Let's be clear: when @washingtonpost says "migrants" are causing a "border surge" ... it's talking about *children* -- toddlers and teens -- who made the harrowing trip to the US bc they might not survive at home

Stop using far-right talking points. Start using your brains.

I usually learn a lot from @NickMiroff and colleagues' reporting, but I need to respond to a few of the choices made in this piece.
