"Today marks one year since the death of the People’s Bubbie Shatzi Weisberger. Before she passed, she said, “I’ll fight like hell for a free Palestine until the day I die. Then I’ll keep fighting. Your queer ancestor is with you.”
If you’ve been rising up in solidarity with Palestine these past two months, your queer ancestor is indeed with you, along with countless other antizionist Jewish ancestors. For many, family and community rifts may be especially painful right now. No matter what, you are not alone. Remember that you have a long lineage of elders and ancestors at your back.
Last night, Israel resumed its brutal bombing of Gaza and has already killed dozens of people. Shatzi would encourage all of us to do everything we can right now for a permanent, lasting ceasefire. To mourn the dead and fight like hell for the living.
Shatzi died on World AIDS Day, which was b’sheret ("destined”) because in addition to being a lifelong organizer, she was a nurse for 47 years who cared for people living and dying with AIDS.
From ACT UP’s organizing to end AIDS to the movement for Palestinian freedom, we honor the ancestors and movements who made us possible."
We will be forever grateful to the ancestors who paved the path before us. May their memories fuel us to work towards freedom for all people — no exceptions."

With all the eyes on American Samoa after Jason Palmer won the primary, it is a good time to remind people of what the island is according to U.S. law.
American Samoa is not considered a state. It is considered an "unincorporated territory". These territories are subject to some of the Constitution, but not subject to other parts. They pay tax dollars can't vote.
In other words.
American Samoa is a colony. A colony in the same way that the 13 states were when under the control of Britain, subject to taxation without representation.
These territories were seized from their native people. They were not given a choice. They must be given a choice now, between full statehood or full independence. Not this imperialist in-between. Power of the People supports self-determination for U.S. colonies.
Learn more about the history of U.S. colonies here.

I had no idea these even existed but I guess it makes sense, that a bird would see the pattern and recognize the glass as a solid object.

When my Mum was pregnant with me she was in the pub and this random creepy elderly woman that nobody ever saw before or since told her that she was going to have a boy and when I was born everyone was like “the creepy lady was wrong” but it turned out I’m trans and THE PUB WITCH WAS RIGHT!
I WAS FORETOLD BY THE PUB WITCH

Remember this viral post? Wanda and Jamal and her husband Lonnie are the most wholesome people, this story brought tears to my eyes originally and I am crying once more learning from Jamal's social media that Lonnie has sadly passed away.
Rest in Peace, Lonnie :(

Hundreds of Jews and allies, including Writers Against the War on Gaza, sagaftramembersforceasefire and Film Workers for Palestine are present in the heart of Hollywood on the day of the Oscars to say: ALL EYES ON RAFAH!
While Hollywood celebrates, Israel prepares for the ground invasion of Rafah, where over 1.3 million Palestinians are seeking refuge. This comes as reports of extreme hunger continue to mount on the first day of Ramadan.
As filmworkers, Jews, and allies, we stand in solidarity with Palestinians. We won’t stop bearing witness. WHILE YOU’RE WATCHING, BOMBS ARE DROPPING" from Jewish Voice for Peace Los Angeles, 10/Mar/2024:

Happy international womens' day! Make sure you're not drinking breastmilk made from exploited females of a different species (aka cows or goats) or eating the periods of hens who need the eggs for their own nutrients to not get their legs broken and then get killed.
Thanks ❤️

The Supreme Court of the United States of America is a fucking joke.
I mean, it has been for a very long time, but this might just be the cherry on top. Even more than Dobbs, I'm serious.
After being taken off the Colorado ballot because he violated the plain-face reading of Section 3 of the 14th amendment, which bars insurrectionists from office, Mr. Orange Man appealed to the Supreme Court. THE Supreme Court which he appointed 1/3 of and another justice's wife was INVOLVED in said insurrection.
But it wasn't just them. IT WAS NINE TO ZERO. Every single one of the justices signed onto this, including all of the "liberal" justices.
For what? For what purpose would you let someone who tried to overthrew the government become President again? The man who was openly bragged about "suspending the Constitution", the document that I thought was oh-so-important to those hacks. The man who wants to be a dictator and trade democracy for theocracy.
And you know what? You know what? Allowing states to take Trump off the ballot might have been the last fucking chance for American democracy to continue existing. He might actually become President again. It's extremely likely. Because Joe Biden is risking American democracy for Bibi Netanyahu.
