1/2 Supporting Diversity in Law Enforcement

🗣️ As a first-generation 🇩🇴🇺🇸Dominican-American from Boston, small business owner, and proud supporter of the Massachusetts Latino Police Officers Association, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, I was honored to attend their Winter Social and Fundraiser.

📚This vital event raises funds to support the Association’s mission: providing professional development and leadership training for Latino officers, and awarding the Manny Familia Scholarship, which creates…

Blogged the dog-eared pages from the last book I finished in 2025: Hacking Diversity by @inquiline

My copy will be on the @DoESLiverpool bookshelves shortly, if anyone wants to borrow it

Stronger Together! 💪🏾

Finished up my last SPARTA 👟Strength class for 2025 at the Malden Senior Center. We had a smaller group today, which just meant more time for connection and quality reps!

I'm incredibly grateful for the center staff and the opportunity to be part of this strong, supportive community. See you in 2026! 🎉

A: Hey kid, how was your first day of school? What subjects will you have?

B: Oh, it was so cool. Our main subjects will be #SocialPedagogy, #GroupDynamics, #PsychoEducation, #TraumaPedagogy and #NonViolentCommunication besides #Inclusion and #Diversity, which we started with today.
Other than that we'll have #ClimateJustice, #BlackHistory, #QueerFeminism, #anarchism, #RiotTraining, #solidarity, #degrowth, #PermaCulture, #ReduceRefuseRepair and a few others.
Didn't you always tell me school didn't teach you anything for real life? Well it's not like that anymore.

As the Trump administration ordered agencies to eradicate “illegal” diversity, equity and inclusion efforts, we identified more than 1,000 nonprofits that removed such language from the mission statements in their tax filings.

I'm discouraged by how often I encounter the immediate "that won't work" response to a new idea vs something more like, "Hmmm... let's think about that a bit." Maybe it'd work... maybe not. But immediate dismissal is an auto-fail.

Recently, we were asked why we, a knowledge & community focused charity, were posting to celebrate cultural and religious holidays.

We believe that the Social Web has the potential to be the most diverse space on the entire web. But to get there, we have to start simple.

We aren't experts. We're learning each time we post (and we hope you are too). Our goal is to provide the very first stepping stones to that, diverse, Social Web we dream of.

The background of the image shows silver stars. Over it, text reads: Why we celebrate Diversity across the social web. Newsmast Foundation.

The background of the image shows silver stars. Over it, text reads: Awareness. The Social Web, especially the Fediverse, has a long way to go before it represents the diversity of the real world.

The Social Web is dominated by the Western perspective.

We hope that, by celebrating cultural events and holidays across our Social Web presence, we can highlight the many missing voices in the timeline. — The background of the image shows silver stars.

The background of the image shows silver stars. Over it, text reads: Education. There are so many cultures and religions on our small planet. We are a species of dreamers and believers.

It’s unfair to presume that a person would be educated on the experiences of others from different countries, cultures, and beliefs. But to welcome diversity to the Social Web, we should make a collective effort to learn.

We’re not experts. Our commuity team are all from the English countryside. We’re not always perfect, but we try to take time to educate ourselves.

We hope that by sharing that knowledge on the Social Web, others may too learn about the experiences of those different to them. Together, we can make this space more welcoming. — The background of the image shows silver stars. Over it, text reads: Education. There are so many cultures and religions on our small planet.

The Social Web is a place for everyone who can treat others with respect and decency. It belongs to no one.

🇺🇸True patriots choose democracy over dictatorship and country over party.

📣 Silence is complicity. When we remain silent, we allow hate and division to thrive.

🇺🇸To those who stand against authoritarianism and hate, who fight for equality, and who champion peaceful protest and civil discourse: You are the true patriots. You inspire us all.

Gratitude and the Gift of #Health✨

🗣️Today marked a personal milestone: my first time teaching a free bilingual Strength and Power Class for Older Adults at La Alianza Hispana in #Boston.

🎯I’m deeply grateful for the opportunity to give back to an organization that supported my family years ago and continues to uplift our #community.

👟More to come, because #healthequity begins with access—and movement is for everyone.

There is One Fediverse. There are a Million Pickleball Courts.

OK, maybe not a million, but over 100,000 and growing fast. And they are displacing tennis courts, because you can get four pickleball courts where one tennis court existed, and more and more people think that’s a good thing.
