3.5.21. New York City

Multiple workers coalitions shut down Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges this morning. NY has denied financial assistance to unemployed and undocumented workers, failed to cancel rent, chooses not to tax the rich, and underfunds public schools.

The government’s response to COVID on all levels is now a year-long failure to contain the virus and support workers. Over half a million people nationally were left to die.

Almost 300 schoolgirls kidnapped in Nigeria are free, says state governor

“Democratic governors who win office by thin margins lock more people up and spend more money on jails and prisons than their Republican counterparts, according to new research, a finding that exposes some Democrats’ “complicity” in the rapid growth of institutions designed to punish criminals.”

Minneapolis Will Pay Influencers to ‘De-Escalate’ Tension During Derek Chauvin Trial

City officials voted to pay social media influencers $2,000 to spread the city's messaging during the trial of the officer who killed George Floyd.

Cointelpro but make it sound woke

[madelinetransqt]

you must only protest the government in the government allotted protest zones

bonus: they arent being subtle

[balaclava-trismegistus]

This illustrates a point that I desperately want to drive home about the situation in Minneapolis ever since the first protests went off:

Militarization is becoming the new normal in the Twin Cities.

Ever since the initial uprising, State Patrol and National Guard have been getting deployed with increased frequency. National Guard units were deployed twice, the second time taking only 2 hours for troops to be mobilized in Minneapolis. They rolled in riding IFVs - what are essentially light tanks designed for urban combat. They’ve been threatened to deploy more than once following those instances. We were having a hard time telling if National Guard was deployed or not during the first day or two of the uprising because State Patrol was deploying in full Multicam battle rattle and riding MRAPs. They wouldn’t identify themselves when people asked. Surrounding the inauguration, what was functionally a DMZ was established a couple blocks around the state capitol in St. Paul. Travel in the area was seriously restricted and similar barricades were manned by state patrol. Reaper drones and helicopters have been deployed at basically any protest that has more than a couple dozen people. It’s Going Down got their hands on some of the footage from that, if I remember correctly.

Things are getting really fucked up here and it’s actually kind of hard to get the word out. News sources aren’t talking about the finer details of it much, aside from activist publications like It’s Going Down. I just really want folks to know how bad things are looking and keep us in mind.

Donna Gottschalk’s “Brave, Beautiful Outlaws” is opening at Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art on Aug. 29. While Ms. Gottschalk doesn’t identify as a documentary photographer or a photojournalist, she has been making pictures since she was 17. Photos selected from her 50-year personal archive will be made public for the first time.

Her work documents her closeness with her working class family and her involvement with the radical lesbian, sometimes separatist, communities in the late ’60s and ’70s.

The photos are tinged with mourning and mystery. She’s been holding their memory for decades, “fiercely protective” and unwilling to “subject them to scrutiny, judgment and abuse” from the outside world.

”Understand, people didn’t care about them or my pictures of them back in the day,” she said. “These people were all very dear to me, and they were beautiful. These pictures are the only memorial some of these people will ever have.”

Don’t forget a whole lot of the people who worked for Reagan (who understood very little of any of his policies, between being not very bright and the dementia) also worked for both Bush White Houses.
