if you’re interested in mutual aid and aren’t sure where to start, i can’t recommend enough joining a local Buy Nothing group. in a nutshell, it’s a totally free gift economy— people give from their own abundance and ask for what they need. it’s indispensable as a recent grad household— we got the majority of our basic furniture, as well as an AC unit through the group— but what i find particularly wonderful are the ways other forms of community aid popup through the group.

i’ve seen people organize meal trains for strangers. people fleeing from domestic violence have gone from a suitcase of possessions to a fully stocked house in 48 hours. home hospices being set up with goods from six different households. cookbook lending. distribution of windfall apples and tomato harvest overabundance. grocery pickup for ill folks. people looking out for listings for others. everything from bread to baby carseats to house paint to pet food.

and much of it is done between strangers, often between people who would not recognize or identify with the term “mutual aid”. it lowers waste, goods go directly to people who need them, and it avoids the sometimes dubious morality of the thrift shop circuit. i’d really recommend it.

[ID: A digital painting of Zuko from Avatar: The Last Airbender. He is dressed in a long-sleeved light green robe and light green pants, under a dark green sleeveless tunic split up the side. He is looking down at the street below him. He wears a conical tan straw hat which shields his hair, eyes, and forehead; his red burn scar shows from underneath, and his skin is pale. He is carrying a round tan straw container in his right hand and a large round basket filled with vegetables in his right arm. On his right side, a gray and brown dog smiles open-mouthed up at him, which he ignores. He is walking up an uneven cobblestone hill, and there are densely-packed Chinese-style houses on the street around him and behind him, colored in shades of green, yellow, and brown. Two single red lanterns hand in front of him and a string of red lanterns hang behind him. Down the street behind him, a child dressed in green chases after a ball. Next to him is a brown brick wall with a green bush growing above it. At the bottom is a printed signature that says “Jasmine By The Bay”. End ID.]

Y'all mention the "indigenous experience" and COMPLETELY exclude continental + diasporic Africans and Western/Central Africa entirely lol

Not slick at all

"Indigenous people make up a tiny percentage of the population but protect a vast majority of the planet's biodiversity" *only shows nonblack Natives, zero mentions of Black people's GENERATIONS long fight for climate/environmental justice, ignores how Black communities are devastated by environmental destruction and pollution*

"We need to look to Indigenous communities for alternatives" *zero mention of Black people AGAIN, no mention of Maroon societies and communities, or tribes/nations with visibly large Black populations on in Eastern regions get ignored or excluded from talks about self determination strangely*
