Choosing community over chaos invites us to reject all invitations to participate in and perpetuate genocidal behaviors and mindsets.
We're all invited to employ tools other than violence, intimidation, and lies as foundations for just futures.

ALT Power is not controlling other people. Power is controlling yourself. Trying to control other people is the first sign you are entirely out of control. Controlling others is what weak people think power looks like.
This time last year, and the year before that, Arkansas didn't talk much about confronting or dismantling Christian nationalism.
This year, that has significantly changed. Way to go, Arkansas.

There is nothing you own, nothing you love, nothing you cherish or enjoy, that a person with enough wealth cannot take from you. Until this is no longer true, we are not free.

You cannot change public policy until you change the makers of public policy. #RevUp
It's a systemic failure that America's hardest workers are so heavily taxed and fiscally stretched trying to cover monthly expenses.
In an oligarchy, systemic policy failures result in untold wealth and privilege for a few.

"..it's not the same as a presidential election in terms of the energy. So, we're certainly up against that. And the other part that seems unfortunate is that it seems like these Southern governors have decided to double down and run campaigns really centered in racial fear."
Facing South recently spoke with LaTosha Brown, co-founder of Black Voters Matter, about mobilizing for the midterms, misconceptions about the South and the region's Black voters, and building a genuine multiracial democracy. facingsouth.org/2022/10/new-…

Today is International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. Poverty is a policy choice. Prior to COVID, 140 million Americans were living in poverty.

If you don't have living wages, if you don't have healthcare for all, if you don't protect the environment, if you don't have voting rights, you have an impoverished democracy.. commondreams.org/news/2022/1…
