recruits are made into officers who are stressed out, physically and mentally, are burdened with gear and fear, and are taught to only trust those who subscribe to a militarized “blue” mentality. "

@OpticalBloc is the most incredible human — just fixin our eyeballs and making sure we can see the rush coming and is quite possibly the most humble creature!!! Share ffs someone make sure they treat themselves
In the meantime, aforementioned liaison w/ help of 2-4 trainers specializing in different areas will be working on a more permanent solution to community self-defense & training, with the possibility of obtaining a long-term space & multiple trainers etc. #PDX#communitydefense
Welp! So our self-defense trainer is going to need to be taking a pause here soon, so we’re putting open class on hold for the time being. Fortunately, a self-defense bloc has recently popped up! Honestly don’t know what they got goin on, but check it out if you’re interested!!
Update on self-defense space!
Our “liasonnns” have both either been sick or out of town and have yet to meet so we can check out the space. Should be getting to it soon, & if all hoop jumping goes well, we’ll have a legit space to train at!!
Will continue to update. #pdx
Genuine question:
What does this movement mean for you? What are you in it for? What exactly is it that you’re hoping to accomplish?

😢 Give this man his peace.
I hope none of y’all white supremacist ass think you Christian and your God would be cool with this disgusting behavior.
Miss me with all your bullshit. ALL OF IT. FUCK YOU.

Please remember.
Systemic Racism is a White issue.
White people are the Only Ones who can fix it. The only ones who can change it.
This is why White people should be on the ground.
Why white people need to organize.
Why white people should be leading the charge
Last night the world lost another beautiful soul at the hands of police brutality. A world wide issue.
William Wallace Jr, we miss you.
Say His Name.
Badger Bloc held vigil. The red candle in the center is for William Wallace.

There is an Indigenous action tomorrow. This is a good time to remind you. Do not ever touch an Indigenous person even a friendly pat on the shoulder is a nope. No touching w/out consent. Do not touch their clothing, hair or jewelry. (This is probably true for most cultures FYI)
One of our comrades had her car fucked with by Chuds Tuesday night at ICE while staying for jail support.
She needs 375 for Mechanic Bloc to fix it.
Please help.

Current profile picture says "White Supremacy won't die until white people start seeing it as a white issue they need to solve instead of a black issue they need to empathize with"
This is real.
Stop empathizing and start solving.
