One example of "the power of radical imagination in building transformative solidarity is the movement for disability justice. . .[Success in challenging] the status quo required a multitude of people playing a wide range of roles." Diversify to grow meaningful organization. 3/3

By the 1990s activism shifted "to a shallow, professional and often philanthropically funded model of “advocacy”, one that elevates self-appointed leaders and elite experts to speak on behalf of constituencies to whom they are not directly accountable." #RadicalSocialWork 2/3

Why do we still need #IWD celebrations? One reason: Because women survive. And some can thrive.

Corporate profits accounted for more than half — 53% — of inflation from April to September last year, according to excellent research from @Groundwork. It's not inflation, we're just getting ripped off. We need to crack down on corporate greed. #SOTU2024

Part of what brought us out of that difficulty of the early pandemic days was the expansion of human needs programs like the Child Tax Credit — which cut child poverty nearly in half(!). We still need these programs. Bring back the expanded #ChildTaxCredit. #SOTU2024
