There’s always an answer when persistence is the guide. #ClimateActivists the message needs a re do starting with What If?

For more than a decade, students have been begging their #universities to stop investing in #oil #gascompanies. In 2019, protesters stormed the field of a #Harvard-Yale football game at halftime, yelling, “Hey hey, ho ho! #Fossilfuels have got to go!” Hundreds of schools have now taken steps to divest (Harvard, at least in part, Yale) many campus #climateactivists are moving onto the next phase: calling on schools to end their ties with fossil fuel money altogether, rejecting #grants and funding

Why practicing non-attachment might make us better climate activists

When cynical detachment stands in the way of productive action, non-attachment offers a grieving process that can fuel powerful action.

Trump is undoing years of gradual climate progress. What can be done when the current administration rejects science in favor of corporate profits and his need to undo everything, Biden and Obama? #ClimateActivists #GreenNewDeal #ManItsHot #BlueResisters

Trump allies circulate #MassDeportation plan calling for ‘processing camps’ and a private citizen ‘#army’

The group, led by #Blackwater veteran #ErikPrince, has close #Trump ties.

"Prince declined to comment, and the other contractors and former immigration officials listed as key personnel in the document also declined to comment or could not be reached.

"The founders of the new special entity called #2USV have a long history with the U.S. government. Blackwater was formed by Prince in 1996 to provide training services to law enforcement, military personnel and other government agencies. It gained widespread attention for its work in Iraq and Afghanistan, providing security services for U.S. officials and military personnel, with critics viewing its rise as a result of the U.S. military’s overextension in the Middle East.

The military contractor came under scrutiny in 2007 following the #NisourSquareMassacre, when #Blackwater contractors opened fire and killed 17 Iraqi civilians and wounded 20 others — raising questions about oversight and accountability of private contractors. Several contractors were charged with manslaughter, and four were convicted in 2014. Trump pardoned them at the end of his first term in December 2020.

"Trump’s pardon was just one example of the influence of Prince’s family during the first Trump administration. #BetsyDeVos, Prince’s sister, served as the president’s #Education secretary, while Prince used his Trump connections as he chased business ventures in the U.S. and abroad.

"In 2018, he reportedly helped raise money for an effort to spy on progressives and Democratic organizations opposed to Trump." [As well as #DAPL #WaterProtectors!]

So, assuming the #Ceasefire between #Israel and #Hamas holds (and that reparations are made to #Palestinian victims -- but don't hold your breath), what if all the folks who came out for #FreePalestine team up with #ClimateActivists and #HumanRightsActivists and #GBLTQ activists and #WomensRights activists and call for change -- while we still have the #RightToProtest. Not sure what the future holds, but all that #Project2025 and laws for #SilencingDissent are still hanging over our heads... (And not just in the #US...) (And yes, kudos to everyone who showed up in #WashingtonDC today -- you rock!)

Honestly, I don't know how fellow #Autist #GretaThunberg can put up with being jailed. In all my years of activism and mischief-making, I've managed to avoid that. TBH, jail is like my worst nightmare (because I was traumatized not once, but twice at a young age, by being locked in a closet -- a tale for another day). I always need to have an "escape route" where-ever I am. And that's why I showed the #ClamshellAlliance the secret path to the nuclear plant site (I knew it from when I clammed with my family), but did NOT go with them during the occupation. I mean, I was 14 years old and my grandmother (see my other posts) would have KILLED ME! (And she moved Heaven and Earth for me, so I didn't want to betray her trust). But yeah. Kudos to Greta! She's way braver than myself!
