"Tired of the doom and gloom and despair about the world? Good news is we're bringing you an extra special show today about the onslaught of disinformation and hopeless news and and how to recenter our selves and find hope in this dark time. It's a colorful conversation with a brilliant guest, Bridget Todd, host of There Are No Girls On The Internet."

@anakita #HopeIsADiscipline and this is a great tool for that discipline of the mind! #AltText: Two panel drawing. Cute anime girl with bluish hair and huge purple eyes holds up a sign in each panel. The first says: 'If our struggle was hopeless, their propoganda would be unnecessary.' The 2nd says, 'keep going." 💜
In 2021 #MariameKaba made a list of 9 solidarity commitments for people who want to be part of supporting incarcerated people, one of which was to write at least six letters to an incarcerated person that year.
I'm really glad I did this and am looking forward to another year writing to three regular penpals.
Sharing Kaba's list for anyone interested in becoming a penpal or other solidarity actions in 2023.

@abolitionbb Thanks for the disclosure.
Curious to hear your favorite takeaways from #MariameKaba #AngelaDavis and #RuthWilsonGilmore
I'll have to read more about #Balagoon
I often think of Kaba's assertion that #HopeIsADiscipline when I get overwhelmed from doing too much #doomscrolling
Kaba posted the following questions on another platform and it's been a really helpful approach toward understanding sociopolitical issues and holding myself accountable for the ways I show up in the movement space

Repost from #MariameKaba
Questions I ask myself when outraged about injustice:
1. What resources exist so I can better educate myself?
2. Who's already doing work around this injustice?
3. Do I have the capacity to offer concrete support & help to them?
4. How can I be constructive?
