The spring trainings I am looking to organize are around facilitation (how to facilitate meetings and events in a movement space, how to address common problems that trip folks up) and conflict resolution in movement groups. Very basic stuff that I am seeing is desperately needed.

CNN reporting that the strikes on Iran tonight are joint US and Israeli strikes.
Which means Donald Trump should be impeached for a third time.
What he has done tonight is illegal under the US constitution and the UN charter.

My team and I have been anticipating this for months. It is unconstitutional and illegal.
The media should note: Last time he issued an EO about voting, we sued and won. If Trump issues such an order we will sue again and we will win again.

Epstein Files Are Missing Records About Woman Who Made Claim Against Trump
It's obvious why Trump and Republicans are wasting the American people's time with theatrics and distractions. The law is in plain language, release ALL of the files NOW.

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.
This White House cover-up needs to end. Itโs not that complicated: we need to release all the files and hold everyone โ whether theyโre a president or a prince โ accountable.

Oh yes she did!
Nancy Hopkins & other female scientists at MIT experienced sexism. One night in 1994, she carefully went into each lab WITH A TAPE MEASURE & calculated the area. It turned out that even a JUNIOR faculty member had more sq footage. MIT admitted fault.

COVID-19 vaccination status during pregnancy and preeclampsia risk: the pandemic-era cohort of the INTERCOVID consortium
COVID-19 vaccination with a booster reduces the odds of PE by 30% approaching 60%
reduction among women with pre-existing morbidities.
Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?
Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.
And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.

Weโre not letting this go.
Our Epstein billboard campaign is live in strategic locations nationwideโFlorida (Mar-a-Lago ๐), Arizona, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Texas.
The message is simple:
Until every page of the Epstein files is released, we will keep up the pressure.

WWE sex abuse suit raises concerns ahead of Linda McMahon's hearing to run Education Dept.
McMahon is a defendant in a lawsuit accusing her and her husband, Vince, of turning a blind eye to the sexual abuse of minors in WWE.
Now, bear with me, because Trump's Secretary of *Education* has been embroiled in a sex abuse lawsuit from her former place of employment which was, of course for an educator, WWE pro wrestling ...

Whatโs most disturbing to me re @mayor.nyc.govโs failure to uphold the .05% allocation for libraries is that these are THE socialist institution, islands designed to secure everyoneโs equal & free access to knowledge, tech & space otherwise monetized. They should be a socialistโs top priority.

My traditionally aged students have some romanticizing of 90s / retro-is-in that I donโt really understand but theyโve never heard of Anita Hill or Clintonโs impeachment or 1st Gulf War or Y2K - what sets the scene of the 1990s, big picture, for those whoโve lived and studied it?

Social movement scholars / faculty - are there any articles or lists of โtacitical innovationโ in the 1990s? I know there is a ton on digital mobilization but just curious for a wider lens. I am about to teach Lisa Levensteinโs โThey Didnโt See Us Comingโ and students donโt have much context.
