To fight for and love a country that despises you… that finds joy and elation in your suffering is truly a different kind of pain. It is mourning in America. A new world order begins. 🙏🏾

Do not obey in advance. Lesson 1, first page, of my pamphlet "On Tyranny."

ALT 1. Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.

Pardon if this point has been made, but it was incredibly powerful to see an older white man stand behind and at the side of a Black man and help elevate him. Biden did that for Barack Hussein Obama.
Tim Walz is doing the same thing for a Black Indian woman.
The significance of this is not lost on people of color in this country and around the world.

This month, we’ve got our eyes on "My Chicano Heart," "A Wilder Shore," and eight other titles by writers on and of the West.

There’s no more hint of a “quiet part”. Donald Trump can’t even lie when it would help him. It’s all vomit dropping out of his mouth.
1. He finally admits to his base that he’s not a Christian. Most of us already knew that.
2. He admits that if he wins, he’s planning on this being America’s last election.
3. Make sure you are registered to vote. Double check. Local elections are more important than ever. vote.org

🧡🩷 Todos los días son para imaginar mundos más libres, y hoy, Día Internacional contra la Homofobia, Bifobia y Transfobia, mucho más. Vivan las personas que, como las mujeres de 𝘊𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘴, se atreven a vivir diferente y a construir espacios de resistencia.

#WomensVoices @caroderobertis’s narration captures the lyricism of their prose w/style & grace in this historical novel... a tender, careful treatment to the 5 lesbians forced into hiding for fear of reprisal in 70s Uruguay @PRHAudio bit.ly/3V19nml #historicalfiction

We made it! What an incredible journey to write a book and bring it into the world. I just wanted to tell a story about my ancestors and do them justice. I hope you find The American Daughters worth your time. A lot of love went into getting it into your hands.

The American Daughters comes out in one week! It'll be in stores everywhere Tuesday, February 27th. I loved writing this book and imagining my ancestors and their community.
