When Samuel L. Jackson speaks, he speaks from lived experience.

He’s calling out what many have felt for years that politics rooted in division and resentment harms young people, #LGBTQ+ communities, and anyone seen as “other.”

This is why BlueCrew stands for inclusion, dignity, and democracy for everyone. 💙

ICE has weaponized our cell phones and social media for tracking and surveillance using Webloc, TANGLES, and Face recognition. Let’s not make it easy for them. I created these to raise awareness, the less your phone is connected to a tower, the more invisible you are to their technology. These posters are about protecting each other, living in fear is not an option. Location data is bought. Faces are tracked. Relationships are mapped. Knowledge is power. Community is safety.

I went to one of Sen Merkley's town halls, and more than what was said (though some good things were discussed), the most amazing thing to me was that 2-4 people in each 80 person seating block were wearing respirators (high quality masks).

That is a TON of folks for where I live. I cried happy tears. It wasn't the Senator or most of the staff (yet?), but it was still beautiful.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸 (𝟭𝟵–𝟮𝟱 𝗢𝗰𝘁 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱) 𝘄𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 — a reminder that keeping infections away is a team effort. The 2025 theme, “Stand UPPP for Infection Prevention — Unite, Prevent, Protect, Prevail,” calls on everyone — healthcare teams, patients, families and communities — to play a part.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀
- Hospital‑acquired infections remain a major global threat: in many places 7–15 in every 100 patients get a healthcare‑associated infection during a hospital stay.
- Proper infection prevention can prevent around 70% of infections through simple, cost‑effective practices.
- Preventing infections protects vulnerable people (children, elderly, immunocompromised) and helps healthcare systems work better.

𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲
- 𝗛𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲: wash with soap and water or use alcohol hand rub frequently.
- 𝗩𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: stay up to date with recommended vaccines.
- 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗣𝗣𝗘 𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆: masks, gowns and gloves when indicated.
- 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲: speak up about safe practices.
- 𝗖𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗻 & 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁: keep surfaces and medical equipment properly cleaned.
- 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗵𝘆𝗴𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗲: catch it, bin it, kill it — cover coughs, dispose tissues, clean hands.
- 𝗔𝘀𝗸 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀: if you’re in hospital, ask staff about hand hygiene, device care and infection prevention steps.

𝗤𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘀 & 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆
- IIPW is observed the third week of October — in 2025 it runs 19–25 Oct.
- APIC leads annual campaigns and themes to educate professionals and the public.
- The week highlights the crucial role of infection preventionists who help cut hospital‑associated infections significantly.

The news out of Columbia University reminds me of when I first learned in 2013 that the U.S. government actively “removes” activists and protest leaders. The U.S. government will arrest, detain, deport, disappear, and assassinate anyone they see as interfering either its agenda, birthright citizen, naturalized citizen, permanent resident, green card holder be damned
