This is a poster from the Black Panthers and honestly I think about it a lot and it deeply effects how I approach activism and my thoughts about "work."

oh, crap, this blew up. Uhhh...donate UPROSE, a WOC-led grassroots org around climate justice that's fighting the Industry City rezoning right now and one of the ladies was nice to me on the phone this morning. https://www.uprose.org/donation-page-1
Also @LeavittAlone pointed out that it's not Black Panthers, but from an organization known as the New American Movement and - as per tradition - I said something wrong online so I will now enjoy an evening of being told I'm wrong over and over again.

I’m muting this thread now, but I thought I’d put a second call-to-action which is to meditate on ways you can decenter using Twitter/fb as a political outlet and think of creative and personal ways you politically can use person-to-person tools like email, Signal and slack.
