Listen,
for folks who don’t know, I was a part of a small organizing team that led to a mass mobilization in 813 cities worldwide in 2019.

I am not talking out of my ass.

You should be VERY VERY VERY careful in this environment about sharing flyers for events that identify NO organizer

      I think people in positions of privilege can recognize their status, and, in my opinion, have a duty to do more (whether it’s donate to orgs fighting this, or donate time if able to be more flexible with their time and work commitments, etc. ).

      There will be people who will be able to take greater risk because they are privileged. There are less financially secure individuals who won’t be able to take as much risk. That’s OK! We don’t need to turn this into a dick waving contest of “who is doing more”

      What we don’t need is this bickering amongst ourselves. We’re all proletariat. Some proletariat will have more privilege. And getting the less privileged working class to attack the slightly more privileged/wealthy wage slav- I mean “workers”- is EXACTLY what they want!

      DO NOT give the bourgeoisie what they want, c’mon now.

      Honestly? No. This isn’t something that you go “if it’s convenient”, the entire concept of freedom is at stake here. I’m biased as a woman of color in a non traditional marriage, but this is absolutely mandatory. I will lose a day’s wages, and it may impact my ability to pay my bills. But are you not seeing the future of this administration if people stand by and accept it?

          Yes, absolutely. But what rent can I pay when I’m suddenly deported because my parents were (legal) immigrants? When I’m being forced to give birth? When I’m fired and accused of being a DEI hire? When my children are hunted? I am willing to sacrifice for this cause.

            Women are the ones who are going to get it done. We have the most to lose.

              It is a lot more difficult to be evicted in most states (even if you don’t pay your rent) than it is to be picked up by ICE.

              I get it. I’ve been too poor to even make it to work at least a few times. (Could not pay for the gas or a ride)

              The point is right now we need numbers to protect what very very little autonomy we still have. If it would absolutely kill you to participate then don’t but we don’t need this shit right now.

              Don’t let the pursuit of perfection keep us from uniting. Now is the time for common ground.

              Listen. My son’s birth certificate has an extended stay motel as his address. I understand poverty. It is NOT worse than what’s coming.
