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

    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.

      When did I say it wasn’t worth it?

      You’re too privileged to understand apparently. This is the same logic that can be applied to anything that costs money. “Just save money! Invested money is worth more than spent money!” If you don’t have the money after roof and food (god forbid if you have a medical need in the US) it doesn’t fucking matter what the prudent thing is. You can’t afford it!

      Some people cannot miss a day of work. It’ll ruin their lives and/or the lives of the people who depend on them. How is this so hard to understand? Help them. Empathize with them. Some blame them.

        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.
