New story up on my Substack. 

Read it here: https://danielredd.substack.com/p/calm-as-the-news-anchors?sd=pf

“Calm as the News Anchors” tackles the idea that anger is slowly being removed from our society through the demonization of yelling and outbursts. If they can make you look crazy for yelling, they can keep you from changing the corrupt system.

No widely popular songs hymned companionate and egalitarian marriages, but the radical Samuel Bamford wrote tender love poems to his wife and children.

How happy may we be, my love!

How happy may we be,

If we our humble means improve,

My wife, my child, and me.

Our home shall be a turtle's nest,

Where duty, peace, and love,

Shall make its inmates truly blest,

And sorrow far remove.

And if the world upon us frown,

Still peace serene is ours;

It cannot bear the free mind down,

With all its tyrant powers:

For if they bear me far away,

And bind me with a chain,

Our nestling will beside thee stay –

Then do not, love, complain.

As an active Chartist, handloom weaver and protester at the Peterloo demonstration, Bamford made it clear that the happy marriage depended upon the couple improving their 'humble means' and braving tyranny.

I'm in awe of how we ran historical revisionism on the civil rights movement so bad that people truly believe it was quiet self-sacrifcial non-disruptive christ-like activism that forced progress and not — like — the incredible economic pressure of boycotts and outbreaks of illegal civil disobedience

Yapping to the choir but eughhh it burns me up girl effective protests have to be loud and inconvenient for change to happen because silent cries die in the dark that's the entire pointtt

#mlk chose to die for freedom is an insane takeaway from what happened 😩 love & solidarity to the apartheid protestors

#artists on tumblr #may has gone so incredibly fast #it literally just started and now it's almost over #i'll be going to finland to visit my mom and friend again in june #just in time for pride week #it's been really nice in helsinki the past few years #i hope it goes safely and peacefully this year too #last year there were some protestors screaming mean things with their hateful signs #but that's to be expected #it's hard to feel insulted when they're the ones wasting their time screaming at strangers #instead of doing something positive #must be a sad life being so angry all the time

bad week for PMs of island nations across the world

#EDIT > #i have been told that it wasn’t actually protestors who burnt the president’s house rather police #unfortunately tumblr doesn’t delete posts like twitter so i’m editing the tags #i should have put ‘the PM/president of sri lanka’s house is on fire’ instead #please do keep this in mind when you share the news! apologies again #world politics #current events #british politics #shinzo abe #uk politics #sri lanka #boris johnson #supernatural

Seeing the protests outside ethe opening of the Dutch holocaust museum, protests with a primary demographic of direct descendants of those who perpetrated the holocaust against their own Jewish neighbours is horrendous. Like they have come together to scream and shout at a Jew, talking about Jewish trauma.

I cannot ever believe that over 100,000 people were deported and murdered (75% of the Jewish population of the Netherlands) and the rest of the population were unaware. They either turned a blind eye or were actively complicit in getting the job done - the number of people who tried to help Jews was vanishingly small. So yes, I feel very comfortable saying that the decents of those who allowed the Jewish community to be obliterated are now the same ones attacking Jews in the modern day.

#jumblr #antisemitism #i/p #you can be against israeli policy and not protest the opening of a holocaust museum #every single person there is an antisemite. they made a decison to attack that event #i dont like to generalise but this one is unforgivable #you can choose to protest wherever you want #en eoute to the museum if you must so the roads are lined with protestors #but the protesting at the actual museum? disgraceful

The Fat Protestor

by @sparklejams and @jordallenhall

For everyone showing up to protest the US government funding of a genocide -- be loud, be safe. Your body is a force. If you are able, use it.

Police identify people by body type/clothing. Be aware (as if you could possibly forget) that you don't have the privilege of blending into the crowd.

Be aware that fatmisic police protocol and infrastructure can endanger your life during arrest.

Let this inform the risk that you take.

If you get arrested: raise hell about being cuffed with your hands in front of your body.

Mid-fat, super-fat, and infinifat people are especially at risk of positional asphyxia when cuffed with their arms behind them. Be especially vocal about any stress position where your knees are raised (sitting on a low police van bench, for instance).

Police typically don't listen to folks when concern is expressed over being cuffed in the back -- be loud. Verse yourself and your community in de-arresting practice. These risks are not commonly known, though are present not only for fat people, but also those with asthma and other breathing difficulties.

Make sure the people you are with are informed of these risks before protesting.

Direct action is sweaty. Prepare against crease rashes (yep - it's a normal self care maintenance thing if you have skin rolls/folds. It's normal. It's common. It's nothing to be ashamed about.) by drying with paper towels, using antiperspirant or cornstarch under your breasts/belly. When you get home, shower and treat with a wound cleanser (shoutout bactine spray) or a tea tree oil balm or soap as needed.

Our fat bodies are magnificent contributions at protests. Our fat bodies take more effort to move - think of all the wonderful ways we can use this to our advantage at a protest or direct action. We can block pathways and hold precious land with our fat bodies. We can shield and protect precious people with our fat bodies.

Bring:

• Change of socks. If you get caught in the rain or doused with water, or even if you sweat through your socks - walking around in wet socks will cause bad blistering.

• Light first aid/bandaids

• Water, snacks, meds

• A physical copy of your emergency contact in case of arrest

Try to go with other fat people. Comrades in normative bodies may not always consider your body and what is safe for you - so make sure you loudly advocate for yourself and your needs within whatever group you are with.

Stay cool. Take breaks. Sit or stop when you need to. Try to be hyper-mindful of getting overheated.

In case of hospitalization:

• Make a packet containing all medical info, advance directives, and emergency contacts. Put it in a clear sleeve with a humanizing photo of you with loved ones at the front.

• Learn more about how to make a Connection Kit and humanize yourself to healthcare workers in the Know Your Rights Guide on nobodyisdisposable.org

Remember that there is so much to do beyond the front lines.

• Provide jail support (wait to greet released protesters with water, snacks, hugs, and rides home).

• Provide your home as a central prep and recovery space before/after.

• Stay near the action and offer your car as a mobile phone charging station.

• Provide childcare.

• Drop off supplies.

Honor your body as a resource for civil disobedience. Center your needs.
