Look at what an absurd number of vegetables and fruits came in my weekly box from Santa Cruz Local Foods. It was $25 for the veggie box and $15 for the fruit box, but last week they turned those prices into $10-40 for veggies and $5-20 for fruit. WHAT. All o’ this for $15.
I was so excited I did a photo shoot.
BUYYYY ITTTTTT (if yr in Santa Cruz)
This is a picture of me.
This is footage from the sit-in that took place at USC today in response to an incident this past Saturday where over 70 police officers showed up in riot gear to deal with a noise complaint about a party comprised primarily of black students.
It’s a pretty incredible speech, you should watch it.
BIkers Against Child Abuse Helps Make Abused Children Feel Safe Again
“A biker’s power and intimidating image can even the playing field for a little kid who has been hurt. If the man who hurt this little girl calls or drives by, or even if she is just scared, another nightmare, the bikers will ride over and stand guard all night.
If she is afraid to go to school, they will take her and watch until she’s safely inside.
And if she has to testify against her abuser in court, they will go, too, walking with her to the witness stand and taking over the first row of seats.”
During one such testimony, a little boy sat on the stand, testifying against his abusive father, who sat less than 10 feet away.
“Why didn’t you say anything before now?” Asked the prosecutor.
“I was scared.” The little boy replied, honestly.
“Why aren’t you scared now, what changed?” The prosecutor watched the little boy closely as he pointed to the front row of seats in the court room.
“Because my friends are scarier than he is.”

This is what structural racism looks like.
Chicago, we have to do better.
This overwhelmingly lovely film means everything to me
