If reports about 3 babies freezing to death in Gaza don‘t move us then we don’t understand the birth in a manger in Bethlehem or the light of Hanukkah. They should move us to demand an end of the war and Hamas terror, winter supplies for the Gazans and a full hostage release.
This recognition, like other accolades that I have received lately, speak not so much to my actions over the past 14 months - the normal opposition of a sentient human to a genocide - but rather to the silence of the many, particularly in the West, who should have spoken and acted against Israeli crimes and have chosen not to. I wonder how they manage to sleep at night.
Elon Musk told the United Nations he would give them $6 billion to end world hunger if they showed him a detailed plan of how they would use the money. They called his bluff and gave him their plan— and then they never got the money. Now he’s buying Twitter for $45 billion.
whenever i have a weird interaction w another person im always like “was it me? was i the weird one?” and then i remember that the world is burning to the ground
To honor Congressman John Lewis’s birth, we must honor the cause that illuminated his life: the fight for justice grounded in the right to vote. We stand & bear witness by rejecting suppression, destroying barriers intended to push citizens out of our democracy. We fight & win.
Heat in winter and running water should not be privileged commodities for the wealthy. In a modern society, they should be rights.
And we will have to fight for these rights as climate change gets worse.
That means standing up to climate crisis profiteers to protect the public.
One last update (I think!): We just hit $5 million raised for Texans across the state.
Thank you ALL for your collective action when people need it most.
Charity can’t replace policy, but solidarity is how we’ll face climate change and build a better world. 💪🏽🌎
Thank you 🙏🏽
