The best way to celebrate #ThankAResidentDay would be to increase residency spots, pay us better, and make sweeping institutional changes that are founded in anti-racism, equity, and justice.

It’s really not unreasonable to have the expectation that everyone should be able to have enough resources to live comfortably and have access to high quality health care, food, life essentials.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is introducing a resolution to block a planned $735M U.S. arms sale to Israel, calling out Israeli airstrikes in occupied Gaza including attacks on schools, hospitals and journalists. “We have a responsibility to protect human rights.”

With all the mucking about America does in other people's governments (while also fucking over it's own minoritized citizens), it'd be cool if we actually got involved when it mattered for Palestinians.

Disgusting and immoral for the US to endorse this violent bloodshed. I don’t know any other time when the US has actively blocked a ceasefire and allowed for civilians to get slaughtered.

Idk where people are at but something that helped me when I was learning more about Palestine a few years ago was reading about the everyday mechanisms of control that Palestinians deal with — from roads to water to ID cards. So thought I’d share
