Call your reps to demand ceasefire and deescalation. The White House doesn't want us saying those words so we have to scream them til they're heard jewishvoiceforpeace.org/reso…

URGENT: Stop arming Israel (call now) - JVP

The U.S. must work to immediately de-escalate to prevent the further loss of life, and not fuel and exacerbate the violence by sending more weapons to Israel.

Historic. Ecuadorians voted to keep oil underground in the Yasuní national park in the Amazon, result of over a decade of movement pressure. A climate, enviro & Indigenous victory. And they voted to ban mining in a UNESCO biosphere in the country’s north primicias.ec/noticias/elecci…

Los ecuatorianos votaron por detener la actividad petrolera y minera en el Yasuní y el Chocó

En los resultados oficiales, con un 95,58% escrutado, el Sí se impone en la consulta del Yasuní. Esa opción también lleva la delantera en las preguntas del Chocó Andino.

BREAKING: 97% of the University of California's 48,000 academic workers have just voted authorize a strike. This was largest strike authorization vote ever taken by academic workers in the US, and would be the largest strike so far of 2022.

While national news focuses on San Francisco, if you really want to know where California's headed - look at the East Bay. Home to nearly 3 million people (3x the size of SF), it's a window into the future of America's suburbs & non-superstar cities. And the future is bright. 🧵

As a survivor, I am thinking about how Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas are credibly accused of having violated and harassed women and are now the ones about to deny us our right to abortion care. Abusers do not belong in public office. Period.

Idk who needs to hear this but the left housing position includes building 12 million units of social housing in ten years. There’s literally a national tenants movement called #HomesGuarantee pushing that. Omar introduced a bill; it was in Bernie’s platform.

The @nytimes just announced they will honor Juneteenth, Veterans Day, and Indigenous Peoples' Day for non-union employees only. This is a new low in union busting designed to scare our @NYTGuildTech colleagues before they vote in their election. We will fight it, and we'll win.

Tenants in the building complained for months about lack of heat and doors not automatically closing, as required by law. The building is owned by Camber Property Group, whose co-founder was on @NYCMayor’s transition team. But Adams blames the victims, not the landlord.

NYC Mayor Eric Adams says there's a key message to take from devastating Bronx fire: "Close the door." "If we can drill that in, we can save lives...This painful moment can turn into a purposeful moment." abcn.ws/3fayYD2

Listen to Oakland students: “We must go back to distance learning until the cases go down again. In order to ensure a safe learning environment, we demand you give us KN95/N95 masks and weekly PCR testing. If these demands are not met we will be striking by not attending school.”

Stay indoors. But also return in person. Wear a mask. Not that one. The expensive one, that you can’t find. Take rapid tests. Which you also can’t find. But if you find them, don’t buy them. Rapid tests don’t work. You need PCR. There are zero appointments in your area.

Teacher here trying to monitor the air-quality in my classroom whose windows do not open. The CO2 monitor folks recommend is the Aranet4, which costs $250. If you want to help offset the cost, I'd be grateful. Venmo - @NataliyaBraginsky // CashApp - $NataliyaBraginsky

SF's Supervisors will vote on Mayor Breed's Declaration of a State of Emergency to address the ongoing crisis of overdose and homelessness in the Tenderloin, SF's "Skid Row." It's not sustainable or supported by research/expertise. It could cause immense harm. My concerns: 🧵 1/n

West Virginia is 50th in public health 50th in childcare 48th in employment They support Build Back Better by a 43 point margin. This has nothing to do with his constituents. This is about the corruption and self-interest of a coal baron.

Retweet if you agree that our governments should send a package of rapid tests & N95 masks to every household, every week, for free.

#bellhooks came to Miami in 1990 & I HAD to attend but I had a baby & didn't want to disrupt her talk. hooks heard/saw us in the back of the auditorium & invited us right up front because children needed to be included in the work of transforming academe. RIP
