Mutual Aid by Dean Spade is free on Libro for the next week (until 2/2).
We know that books can't fix everything, but they can help us show up for and strengthen our communities. Our employee book club read this last year, leading to a great discussion. We hope that it helps others do the same 💗 ⏬
This little thread
You know me I don't share fundraisers unless I can tell you I trust them with my whole heart and my own wallet. This one gets protective gear to legal observers in Minneapolis / Saint Paul

he knows that we know he's lying. he's telling us we're all terrorists to him. he's telling us that to dissent is now a capital crime. he's telling us they'll shoot us, too, and they'll say we deserved it.
You: It can’t happen to me.
The state: we looked into this white guy we killed and we do feel a need to bring up these parking tickets
Alex Pretti from his early days working at the VA
Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now
Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.
White. Hot. Rage.
I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
this is why what’s happening in Minneapolis is both the most and least encouraging part of the second Trump admin to me
least because what they’re doing is completely insane and there are three more years of this
most because the way the community has responded is truly extraordinary
Crockett: "You only love enforcement when they're going after Black, brown, immigrants, that kind of folk. But on January 6, you didn't care about law enforcement."
From yesterday, but if you haven't called yet, please do it tonight. Leave a message. Just call.

New: We got an internal ICE document revealing its $100 million ad plan to bring in 14,000 new hires: deals with "tactical" influencers; ads to gun & military buffs; and geo-targeting phones around NASCAR races and gun shows.

Hey Diana! I've got a pretty cool anthology coming out - My co-editor & I wrote a frame narrative for the stories, so it's about four teen refugees fleeing a war-torn land, telling stories along the way to keep themselves going. It's called A Thousand Nights!

In an unexpected turn of events, the anthology I am a co-editor of is part of the B&N pre-order sale for US folks, just through tonight! It technically hasn't even had its cover reveal yet, so this is all very unexpected. Have a look-see! 😄

Frustrated little dude gripping a pencil saying “how do I pack this down into something I can actually share?” While swirling rainbows labeled “INFINITE POTENTIAL” float around them. Little dude frowns at a tiny grey box, exclaiming “all that work for THIS?!” Little dude shoves the grey box into another little guy’s hands; Frowning, stomping off, and saying “Here you go, I made this, it sucks.” Second little dude cracks open the box, swirling rainbows project out onto their face. Second little dude stares in awe at all the swirling rainbows now floating around them.
Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑
A large statue depicting the sea god Neptune looms over the photographer. The sculpture is of a man with a long beard and hair, no shirt, with a trident in one and while the other is outstretched further into the room. While the sculpture is made of white material, colorful lights are currently projected onto it in shades of purple, green, blue, and yellow.
The cover of the book, What the Sea Brings, surrounded by arrows pointing to various text. The text reads, Enemies to Friends, Her Job is Just Beach, Faith, Family, and Friendship, Studio Ghibli Vibes, Cozy Middle Grade Fantasy, Little Mermaid Inspired
It's the FINAL WEEKEND to pre-order What the Sea Brings!
"...quiet, cozy, and emotionally powerful middle grade fantasy that gently washes over you like a tide—and leaves a mark long after the last page." - Goodreads Reviewer
