Remember the time that we found out #Cointelpro was real and that the feds and Chicago PD murdered #FredHampton?
Remembering is an act of resistance.

I know that all the mutual aid requests and sad stories on here can get overwhelming. It can start to make you feel helpless, not knowing who to give that $1 to, if that’s all you are able to give. My best advice is just to pick one. Don’t think about it too hard. Give to the first post you come across, the first post that speaks to you, or by random number generator. Just go ahead and put that good forward into the universe.
Mutual aid online usually takes the form of money, but not always.
Dani is a #trans person who is very sick, dealing with medical bills and limited mobility. He is an artist and musician with a Kofi and an Instagram you can follow or book his services thru (if you use those), and he also has an #InstrumentRepair shop in #Chicago. He needs to #borrow a power drill from someone.

Federal housing officials spent years investigating cities from #Chicago to Memphis to Corpus Christi for putting industrial plants and unwanted facilities in poor, nonwhite neighborhoods.
Now, under Trump, the agency plans to drop the cases.

with @Tzipporah & @Yocheved at Dreamstate / Radius
Erez Eisen and Amit Duvdevani of Infected Mushroom were def peak of the lineup by far in my opinion. The Radius sound system lived up to its reputation. Hard to imagine sound could be pushed any farther - just plain wow!

Geneviève Ryan Martel better known as TDJ from Montréal, Quebec was incredible. She should have been immediately before #InfectedMushroom.
