On this day, 7 March 1942, Lucy Parsons, Black anarchist, co-founder of the revolutionary Industrial Workers of the World union and lifelong advocate for working people, the homeless, and women, died in a house fire.
Born into slavery in Virginia to an enslaved mother, Parsons later moved to Chicago and became a famous revolutionary firebrand, working as a dressmaker and organising garment workers.
Instead of voting for politicians, Parsons advocated direct action to change the world, advising workers: "Never be deceived that the rich will allow you to vote away their wealth."
The Chicago police department described Parsons as “More dangerous than a thousand rioters”, and after her death, they confiscated all of her papers and books. She was also the widow of Haymarket martyr Albert Parsons.

They removed all Transgender references references from the Stonewall website.
It's not on Trans people to fix this. If we're not here for each other, what are we here for?

Rally for Trans Visibility at Stonewall, Feb. 22 https://www.struggle-la-lucha.org/2025/02/17/rally-for-trans-visibility-at-stonewall-feb-22
"Punishment feels like a necessary ingredient toward being able to get back to right relationship in some way. And transformative justice challenges those values quite a bit. And it's hard to hold. I too am conditioned in this culture and was punished myself as a child. Very hard to think of what else to do when violence or harm occurs in the world but to punish. It permeates so much that when somebody chooses to do something else, we sometimes react violently toward that person who doesn't choose to punish, who says actually I want to try a different way. Then it's like, 'You aren't holding up your end of the bargain here. What are you saying about my values if you refuse to go after this person in a punishing way?' It's really complex. It's really complicated. It's something I do think a lot about on a regular basis. I'm working actually currently on a resource. It's tentatively titled 'Interrupting the Punishment Mind-set,' and it's intended to be a resource for teachers to work with younger people and help them to think about punishment differently, to move from a focus on punishment to a focus on accountability and consequences. I've been working on it for a long time now. And it's been a struggle because it's so hard to find materials that are the opposite of the thing that we do, which is to punish."

Quietly losing my mind over the fact that Elon Musk has straight up orchestrated a coup of our executive branch and like....I don't even know what, if any, system we have in place to fix this. Like... He's just taken control of the money and locked out the actual appointed officials. What the fuck.
Nazis are taking over my government, and like, not even just the Nazis we fucking elected! And I'm...making hamburgers? Because somebody has to make dinner? I just feel completely unhinged.
I think that's how random civillians generally feel in these situations. Someone's gotta make dinner.
It reminds me of this poem by Vinay Krishnan
“There’s laundry to do and a genocide to stop.
I have to eat better and also avoid a plague.
My rent went up $150. I’ll need to pick up more shifts.
Twenty people died in Rafah this morning and every major news outlet is stretching the limits of passive voice to suggest whole families may have leaped up through the air at missiles that otherwise had the right of way.
I just got a notification that my student loan payments are starting up again and my phone isn’t charged.
My cousin got COVID for a fourth time and can no longer work or walk or even feed himself.
The person across from me on the L train seems to fashion themselves as a punk rock revolutionary, but they are not wearing a face mask, and that’s the kind of cognitive dissonance that makes me want to steal batteries.
Fascists keep winning primaries for both parties, and I think I gained a few pounds.
The CDC just announced there are no more speed limits on highways, and I think this Ativan is finally hitting.
The NYPD farmer’s market only sells bad apples, have you heard that one?
Listen it’s warm today, too warm for March. But I don’t have time to think through the implications because there’s laundry to do and a genocide to stop.”
~ zine culture and handmade art are more important than ever ~
"Zines are handmade, self published booklets and — unlike magazines and books — can be made by anyone with a message, a bit of artistic vision, and access to a printer. Zines also have the benefit of being as short or as long as the creator wishes and can cover any subject matter and be of any style, much unlike traditional publishing."
•• to delve more deeply into the importance of zines & DIY publishing check out my recent article on these topics >>
I will continue to create handmade zines.
•• find my collection of zines & sewing kits on Etsy ••
I would love to start a zine 😀! I live next door to a little free library, and I could add my zine in there📙. I borrow & add books to it all the time, so why should I not contribute my own art?🙂

Take care of yourselves everyone 💚🏳️🌈
Okay so we have this huge problem with forgetting about everything that’s happened by the time the next election rolls around so I’d like to keep a running list of things as they’re happening to help remind us when the 2026 midterms roll around. And please add to this if I’ve missed anything.
January 2025:
Donald Trump pardoned 1500 people who participated in the insurrection of January 6th, including those who violently assaulted and nearly killed police officers.
Donald Trump has declared that trans and non-binary people don’t exist.
Donald Trump is working towards firing everyone in the government who isn’t loyal to him.
Donald Trump has effectively fired everyone who he claims is an “illegal DEI hire” …whatever that means
Donald Trump pulled out of the Paris Climate Agreement and the World Health Organization
Congress are trying to pass the Laken Riley Act to, effectively, round up every immigrant in the country, including LEGAL immigrants

Donald Trump purged a dozen inspectors general from the federal government and intends to replace them all with people loyal to him.
Pete Hegseth has been confirmed as Secretary of Defense. Here’s the breakdown of how the Senate voted. Note, it was a 50-50 tie that JD Vance had to break.
Donald Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Colombia after the Colombian government turned away two airplanes carrying migrants. Columbia has retaliated by imposing a 25% tariff of its own on US goods.
Donald Trump has also issued a travel ban for Colombian citizens and revoked visas from Colombian migrants coming to the US.
Donald Trump has now backed off the tariffs and other threats against Colombia. Note for future reference: this comes just hours after Trump made the threat in the first place and he and the Colombian president got into a big fight on social media.

After pressure from state governments, activist groups, and the general public, the White House has rolled back some of the freezes on federal funding.
This.

February 2025
I’ll keep adding to this list as new things come up and, again, please feel free to add anything I’ve missed. I know that in this world of constant news it’s easy to forget, so let’s give our future selves a little help!
It’s been almost two weeks since the ceasefire in Gaza has gone into effect on January 19, during which Israel has violated the ceasefire deal multiple times in different ways, the most blatant of which is Israel’s continuing to block aid from entering Gaza in a manner as per the humanitarian aid protocol section of the deal.
This has so far meant that no medical supplies were allowed in (although many are waiting at the border), no building material and not enough fuel to allow water and power plants to function again. In an interview earlier, the spokesperson of Gaza’s civil defence said that while the north of Gaza needs about 130,000 tents, it has only received 200 tents so far.
The ceasefire only halts the active, more obvious violence but Gaza remains under brutal Israeli siege, as it has been since 2006. The day the ceasefire started I recall so many people sharing the same sentiment: first ceasefire, second lift the siege. Where is your advocacy with that today?
According to the director of Gaza's government media offices and as of February 3rd, Israel has so far only allowed 55% of the aid that was supposed to enter Gaza at this stage of the ceasefire, as per the agreement. Additionally, Israel only allowed 35% of the amount of fuel that was agreed on, which prevents civil defence and medical facilities from operating (x).
