The Māori parliament protest video has had me sobbing all day. I am so incredibly moved by the act of community calling in the ancestors to condemn injustice

It’s worth a read
AOC asked her followers who split their ballots either for Trump/her or Trump/downballot Dem to explain why and posted the replies:

The amount of horrible takes and finger pointing is exhausting Rest so that you can organize and fight. Be honest about what barriers exist within your community to progress and equity. Then gather your folks by educating them Hold your communities and hold them accountable

This is actually what I teach my students and tbh, it’s the hardest lesson for them to understand

5) what’s it gonna take to get Black people to understand that capitalism will not save us because it’s inextricably linked to white supremacy? Seeing lots of Black male business owners saying they voted for Trump = misogynoir + money

NYC has to be even more vigilant to fight off the rebrand and return of Cuomo. Folks will want that 2020 nostalgia of him “standing up to Trump.” They’re literally opposite sides of the same coin

4) a lot of people are saving that we will survive this. Not all of us are going to survive. This erases people at the margins. Especially disabled people who rely on state programs and funding. Covid has left so many more people disabled and WHO warns of more pandemics

2) individualism is a byproduct of white supremacy, whiteness, and Americanness that showed in the results. It explains why folks vote for abortion and Trump

Thoughts I’m processing 1) a lot of folks are in denial about the data. Trump appeals to white people across race, gender, class, and ethnicity (hello Latinos!)

It’s not just rural white women. We need to be very clear that it is white women. This crosses class lines. It did in 2016 as well. It’s only increased
It coming down to whether rural white women will side with an aggressive and abusive white man or an accomplished and pretty black woman is such a layered conclusion to America that feels like yes of course it had to come down to this.

If you consider yourself to be progressive and Latinx, you should be talking about anti-Blackness in the Latinx community and centering Black and indigenous Latinx folks in these discussions

Men lie. Women lie. Numbers don’t lie.
Let’s not start with the blaming Latino voters thing again. It’s tired.

Like they always do!
These abortion measures doing well means a lot of white women went in there voting to save themselves and no one else.
