This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades.
It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.
“Each person who visits the President’s House and does not learn of the realities of founding-era slavery receives a false account of this country’s history.” — U.S. District Judge Cynthia M. Rufe

I just read this piece and found it spot on. TLDR: Non-violence is a way of life, a way of resistance, and critical for our new world that is possible. MN is showing us how. open.substack.com/pub/ourmoral...
On his first day in office, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani revoked all of the executive orders issued by former Mayor Eric Adams after his indictment in 2024 — including measures that sought to crack down on pro-Palestine protests and advocacy.
Heavy rains have deepened Gaza's misery, flooding tents in which many thousands of people are huddled, exposed to winter. A baby recently died of hypothermia.
Israel continues to restrict humanitarian aid, including tents. Nothing but silence from Trump. We must not forget Gaza.

In #Advent, the Christian hegemony of the US is on full display. Christianity has been co-opted by & for empire for millennia. It persists, it needs rebuke. And

Put #Christ back in #Christianity
Like hate-beams coming out of her eyes
I refuse to let this era be defined by the sick villains and spineless cowards. We are surrounded by everyday heroes and they will keep emerging.

2/3 #Peace might be keeping an internal Peace no matter how dark it gets. 🌑 A Peace-beingness so as to be and express our truest, most badass selves. Jesus was not born in a peaceful time, and neither were we. Born to make peace: in Palestine, or in our hometowns, as families are torn apart by ICE.
1/3 If #Advent can invite deeper spiritual practice, perhaps it can femmifest #Hope #Peace #Joy #Love within us. Hope in a world that is rapidly melting and fracturing requires discipline. Hope might be an internal vision that is required for kindom [sic], the beloved community, & a free Palestine.
Watch the whole thing. Absolutely chilling.
#Hope #Peace #Joy #Love
Each of these has a shadow side, too.
Hope, or stagnant optimism?
Joy or cover for real feelings of grief and loss?
(Conditional) Love.
And Peace? Are we just keeping the peace, or really willing to make peace?

How Fascists Are Using Jews and Palestine to Advance Their White Supremacist Agenda
Fascists are using Israel's genocide to promote both anti-semitism and Islamophobia, pitting minority communities against each other, to march towards white supremacy.

“Solidarity with Palestine reflects the very realities that queerness is not just about sexuality or identity but about dismantling oppressive structures globally, and that is a common understanding within queer liberation and Palestine liberation movement.”
Palestine matters to queer folk.

Well done! A Massachusetts church displayed an “ICE was here” sign in its Nativity scene.
We declare ourselves and an Apartheid-free community and to that end;
We pledge to join others in working to end all support to Israel’s apartheid regime, settler colonialism, and military occupation.

Painting of a beautiful young child with dark eyes and hair wrapped in a kaffiyeh holding a basket of oranges. Behind them hangs an embroidered curtain with traditional Palestinian patterns called tatreez.
My exposure to the #keffiyeh for decades was primarily thru mass media. Images of endless conflict, men with guns in headscarves. But it is also a symbol of #hope and #solidarity for #Palestine. An ancient textile worn by farmers. Art connected to land: fishnets, olive leaves, trails.

And I often feel hopeless & #powerless.
Hope is making a way out of no way.
