Elections & Voting. Focus on CT regional info, when available. No one is free until we’re all free. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️BLM Ally to everyone except the hateful.
We knew it was likely to happen. Mourn. Grieve. Then gather your people and get back to work. They can’t decimate rights won by blood, sweat, and tears unless we let them. “Supreme Court guts Key Provision of the Voting Rights Act” #Callais
Maybe you see a trend with the messaging that left and independent voters are gravitating towards? Credit to @prisonculture.bsky.social
From the Dec 8, 2025 Letters From an American Substack by @hcrichardson.bsky.social His narcissistic gaslighting and white supremacy have dovetailed directly into acute mental decline.
Now is the time to take a beat, enjoy the day, then get back to organizing. Serious, consistent, & joyful organizing. Victory over oppression is in our sights. Be someone who can tell your grandkids that you did everything in your power. Let’s go!!!!!
This is the sign to keep going, because we are building the movement that will end this reign of terror.
Call your reps on the #ctjudiciarycommittee and demand they do better than the March hearing where there was an attempt to (wrongly) conflate FGM/C with gender-affirming care.

They’ve gained the wisdom and the strength to hold real power. Be like these women.
#ct #connecticut rallies for tomorrow. Probably not an exhaustive list. Every single person counts. If you can’t come, put fliers up in town, watch someone’s kids so they can go, meet with neighbors, stand with a sign of support for immigrants at a local business, write letters to the editor, etc. ✊
For those in central #CT, if you have a CONFIRMED ICE sighting, please report it to the new #rapidresponse phone line:
The dark irony of being comforted by Zitter… They’re right. Something went [very, very] wrong, and it ISN’T my fault.

I personally know many people who should call this number immediately. You know who you are, and you know the right thing is to stand with compassion, humility, humanity, and the intention of your oath. Call now. #ice #resist #nationalguard #oath #military
#NationalGuard mobilization being threatened in #LosAngeles #CA tonight, June 7, 2025. Anyone #protesting #ICE be aware that the regime may be attempting kettling, and to provoke riots. Stay non-violent and unified & do not give up defending compassion & empathy for our neighbors. ✊
Everywhere. All day. Except DC. Let the clown drown in condemning silence.
🆘We need 1,000’s of phone calls, emails, & visits to #ct Governor Ned Lamont’s office TODAY!! He has said he will not support immigrants by refusing to support a strengthened #trustact. Change his mind today! Protections for one are protections for all. Call today, and get everyone you know to call.
More actions through June #ct #resistance www.ctcivillibertiesdefense.org
Protest like your life depends on it (because it does). Nationwide #Apri19 @officialct50501.bsky.social
It’s your daily reminder to go to @generalstrikeus.bsky.social and fill out your strike card. 3.5% of the US population cannot fail if we unify in our mission and message. Take back the power from the billionaires and take back your life from this insanity!
Republicans have seized on the pain average Americans suffer due to wage inequality they created in the 80’s under Regan & offer up the Democrats as the scapegoat & culture wars as rage-bait. Here’s why you’re really suffering: inequality.org/facts/income... #classconsciouness #defundbillionaires
