This is deeply troubling. Plainclothes NYPD officers yanked a protester off the street — identified by her friends as an 18-year old homeless trans person. Where is she? #WhereIsNikki

David Lammy called it all out. Rings even more true today.

You know what's really "hating Britain"? Thinking the bits worth defending are colonialism, Empire and racism.

Let's celebrate instead the Levellers, the Chartists, the trade unionists, the suffragettes, the anti-racists, the LGBTQ activists. And let's give them more statues!

The NYPD’s budget is $6,000,000,000

That’s more than the city spends on health, homelessness, youth development and workforce development combined.

Not being racist is not enough. At Represent, we see first hand how undiverse our corner of the design world can be.

We’ve pulled together a list of links and resources we’ve been digging into, that might be useful to others.

If you want to direct your rightful anger over JK Rowling's latest anti-trans comments into something positive, support orgs that help Black trans people like @MPJInstitute, @blacktransusa, @TransJusticeFP, @Genderintell and @ukblackpride

🗣️ End cash bail and wealth-based incarceration.

We are facing a full-scale assault on the First Amendment freedom of the press.

These unconstitutional attacks against journalists will not go unanswered.

Thinking today of Smiley Culture, a British pioneer of fast chat, who was killed in his own home c.2011 by the police. His family still waits for an official answer

This is the kind of violence we should remember: to harness the anger and move on it

A blackout isn’t a breather.

So everyone's clear. ANTIFA does not exist as an organisation. There are antifascists, though, and there is antifascism. Trump wants to to criminalise protests against racism and his government as terrorism, because any protester can be labelled 'ANTIFA'.

[Caroline Orr Bueno, Ph.D @RVAwonk]

Antifascism is a style of doing politics. It’s not an organization, and it doesn’t pose a threat to the general public — it threatens the ability of white supremacists and fascists to organize in public. That’s why Trump feels threatened.

Friendly reminder that house and techno came from black people.This also goes for jungle, trap and most music you are seeing at clubs and festivals. If your go-to label/dj is staying silent this week while they have been profiting off of the culture you should prob find a new fav

if you are safe within a violent system, it’s only on a technicality. just wait.
