Let @chicagosmayor know you want your City Council to vote NO on tomorrow's budget:

Reyna worked as a cook for 28 years at the Signature Room before it closed with no notice. She deserves to go back to work when a new operator takes the space. Sign the petition! ✏️ ➡️ https://t.co/PIWCssjhic

Don't let the euphemisms distract you. She was fired and penalised for being pro-Palestine. We are about to see a lot of Black and brown actors get blacklisted or lose jobs for their advocacy.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

The U.S. government should not be funding Israel’s war crimes against the Palestinian people.

[Palestine Legal @pal_legal]

We’ve spoken to Palestinian and Arab students at K-12 schools facing bullying and censorship, including a highschool student in Frankfort, Illinois, whose school officials told Palestinian students to stop wearing keffiyehs—scarves that are a Palestinian national symbol.

[Ayesha A. Siddiqi @AyeshaASiddiqi]

we need to be more transparent about the fact that donations can’t currently reach Gaza, all energies should be towards making it impossible for our leaders to continue endorsing a genocide. totally impossible, use your imaginations. ceasefire is the most urgent demand rn

[Tamanisha J John @TamanishaJohn]

Liberal calls for “nuance” (to maintain the status quo) offers no critique (unsurprisingly) of settler colonialism.

“Feeling bad for people on both sides” — does not address the fact that Palestinians have lived, and been murdered, under Israeli occupation for over 7 decades.

[Erica Marable @MarableErica]

Liberals are gonna turn around in 2024 and say we need democrats to prevent fascism as if we aren’t witnessing their prominent role in one of the worst cases of fascism and ethnic cleansing of our time.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

BREAKING: The NLRB has ruled that if bosses commit unfair labor practices in the run-up to a union election then the election will be canceled and the Board will order the employer to immediately recognize and bargain with the union.

Union-busting just got a lot harder.

[derecka @dereckapurnell]

It is angering, and embarrassing, that since Michael Brown's murder 9 years ago today in Ferguson, police killings have increased. That all of the consent decrees and diversity and task forces and books and careers and tears that have made rounds, police kill more people now

[David A. Banks @DA_Banks]

Every time I see this I have a flash of rage. He lied to my generation so effectively and effortlessly and then doomed us to a climate catastrophe. One of the worst presidents in modern history.

[Ken Klippenstein @kenklippenstein]

As Hollywood executives claim they can't afford to pay actors better wages, they're also spending lavishly on AI, with Netflix offering $900,000 for a single AI product manager.

87% of actors earn under $26k — the cutoff to qualify for health insurance

MISSING PERSON: Police are looking for Carlee Russell. She disappeared after calling 911 about seeing a child walking on the side of I-459 in Hoover. When police arrived, they found her car empty. Her family is desperately seeking answers, calling for a search party. @WVTM13

[Andréa (Dre) Becker @andreavbecker]

Reminder before everyone gets really into “threads”: Meta actively HELPS law enforcement criminalize people seeking abortions in banned states

[Heather Cherone @HeatherCherone]

Black Chicagoans were 9 times more likely to be stopped by the Chicago Police than White Chicagoans in 2018 & 2019, even though officers were 29% more likely to find drugs or weapons if they searched someone White, according to a new report. @wttw https://t.co/452xjlXFsf

What would happen if migrants on boats with limited resources were also seen as brave explorers gifted with curiosity and wonder for depths unknown, I wonder.

[aaron from queens 🇵🇸 @aaronnarraph]

this is really bad: anti-trans, anti-CRT, far-right org PLACE just won 40% of seats on NYC community education councils

the nationwide fascist creep just put down roots in our public schools under the guise of supporting the SHSAT and gifted & talented

[NY Working Families Party @NYWFP]

The smoke choking New York is a painful reminder that the climate crisis does not affect us all equally. Today, there are tens of thousands of unhoused and housing-insecure New Yorkers who have no choice but to breathe the deadly air for 24 hours. (1/3)
