Happy May Day to the workers of the world! Today is about joy, solidarity, and rebellion, and has been since a Black anarchist named Lucy Parsons led the country’s first May Day march in 1886. The cops called her “more dangerous than a thousand rioters.” Be dangerous, beloveds.
ADL is actively turfing this right now so yes, that's the goal.

This is the result of all they have stolen from us. All the budget cuts, crumbling schools, closed libraries, dirty parks, infrastructure falling apart, all so that a fascist fucking army can be deployed on our own kids. This city, this whole damn country, is rotten to the core.

I had to look it up. Devon Market forever!
🚨The FTC is finalizing a rule banning noncompete clauses for *all workers* regardless of income or industry. It will increase pay, new business formation, innovation -- and cut health care costs. It's one of the most important things the Biden Administration has done.
Huge news: The Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation has become the first federally recognized tribe to get a portion of their land back in Illinois. Illinois now has tribal lands.
Hard to believe that after more than 2 years of reporting, this is finally out in the world. It wouldn't have happened without the sources who shared their stories with me. I hope the story does them justice

Discount Goebbels laying the Big Lie they'll use to incite riots again.
It's that time of year again! @imLeor has compiled an interactive map of Chicago record stores, accompanied by listings of their Record Store Day bidness—even if they aren't participating at all. It's just as useful if you hate RSD but love record stores! chicagoreader.com/music/record-s…
You should get tax breaks for not driving, for not owning a car, for commuting by public transit. It's a total policy mindfuck that drivers get subsidies for new electric cars ostensibly for the environment but the minimal impact of non-drivers isn't recognized whatsoever.

Rosa Parks was SUPPOSED to be in the back of the bus (BY LAW) and she said NO. I will sit in the front. She violated the law but that law was unjust and it sparked the civil rights movement in the South. Do not tell me that law matters more than morality.

What's cool about looking back at the history of college protests is that 19 year old students have been right about every single American war, and the esteemed Harvard educated opinion writers at the New York Times have been wrong about every single American war.

actually I hate it when the far right exerts force and I love it when the far left does. this is because I am a leftist. you may not realize this as a liberal, but actions have political valences depending on the people and politics behind them. I hope that helps!
You can’t denounce the J6 rioters and then say the Columbia students who occupied a building by force and destroyed property should be immune from consequences. This is the real world.
Happy May Day to the workers of the world! Today is about joy, solidarity, and rebellion, and has been since a Black anarchist named Lucy Parsons led the country’s first May Day march in 1886. The cops called her “more dangerous than a thousand rioters.” Be dangerous, beloveds.

Deputy Commissioner Tarik Sheppard shows the chains used to secure Hamilton Hall at Columbia University. "This is not what students bring to school. This is what professionals bring to campuses and universities."
Notice who standards of "violence" exist for and who they never seem to apply to. You cannot win the battle of "peacefulness" because these characterizations have never been grounded in reality or based in any good faith. Kind of like the law: who does it actually apply to?
