How has Karen Bass gone from a police reformer to taking over a million dollars from police for her campaign? What assurances do they get? Has LAPD reformed since Gates, how is Bass holding police accountable? What is the data? Is Black LA safer under Mayor Karen Bass?

Crazy when Finkelstein knows more about Black history & the relevance of resistance/violence by the oppressed against the oppressor than McWhor-ter. How can anyone expect enslaved Africans, Palestinians, or any oppressed people to die at the hands of their oppressor & do nothing.

Oct 4th is the national day of action for missing and murdered indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit peoples. Indigenous individuals experience gendered and racialize violence at a disproportionately higher rate than non-indigenous people

Queer Ghanaians Help Fight Church Fire, Urge President John Mahama and Parliament to Fund Fire Service Instead of Anti-LGBTQ Bill Focus Queer people in Accra are urging President John Dramani Mahama and the Parliament of Ghana to stop spending time and resources on the anti-LGBTQ bill and instead invest in equipping the Ghana National Fire Service with adequate firefighting equipment and infrastructure. The call follows a fire outbreak at Jesus House Chapel International in Dansoman,along the Aliu Mahama street, Accra, where, according to Hajia Akita and Hajia Rose, fire tenders arrived without sufficient water, forcing people to resort to nearby school facilities and gutters to obtain water to help extinguish the flames. They argue that the ongoing parliamentary discussions on the anti-LGBTQ bill will not address Ghana’s pressing developmental challenges or solve urgent problems such as inadequate emergency response infrastructure needed to protect lives and property. Their intervention highlights the importance of prioritising public safety, emergency preparedness and essential services over legislation targeting LGBTQ+ people.

I asked every Dem Governor if they would rip up the documents allowing state police to work with the FBI on NSPM-7 and surveillance of speech and organizing. Most of them didn't respond. The ones who did praised the FBI's counter-terrorism teams: newrepublic.com/article/2159…

Artistic repair should be at the core of our cultural ethos
They don't tell you how repairing your own broken stuff makes that stuff feel way more intimately yours than buying a replacement for the broken thing.

Social housing takes homes permanently out of the speculative market and puts people before profit. It’s one way we can build a future where housing exists to meet people’s needs, not generate returns for investors.
