Special thanks to my (#Bihotz) co-host, IrishGinger (PNW RES)

So this Wednesday, I"ll guest on FFRF's... Facebook live thingy? Radio thingy? whatever it is, to talk about Idaho's peculiar brand of patriarchal white Christian nationalism, and their broad and coordinated attack on public institutions, most specifically and currently, the public college, public library, and public schools.
I also doubt that I will be able to refrain from throwing a little shade at the stilted whiteness (and concomitant hierarchical patriarchy) of many of organized atheism's more venerable institutions. 😜 Possibly mentioning Nadya Dutchin as someone whose work to decolonize atheism had recently inspired me.

Got a little mention in this one. I doubt the Local Baddies read much of Religion News Service, though.

From a #Roe protest last summer, with us coming up on another Roe gathering/protest in honor of the 50th Anniversary of Roe, it was on my mind.

Top two #books are my #AmReading, bottom two are my #UpNext, all from my local #library system. It's a whole lotta Not White, and whole lotta Not Man, and just a dash of spicy #queer, and this pleases me, especially in #NorthIdaho.

Had a meeting with our #RightToRead group here in #NorthIdaho; it was great! I have hope that we'll be able to counter far right #Republicans (#KCRCC), their attempts to take over the Board of Trustees of our #library system, their anti-queer cishet patriarchal #WhiteNationalist exclusionary, disinclusive policies, authoritarianism.
We believe in our libraries, real #community building.
And right after, a postcard campaign in support of #Drag in #Idaho!

@SorayaMcDonald Well this is horrifying. I fear that's the direction some of our #libraries here in #NorthIdaho are heading.

@BruceMirken I live here in #CoeurdAlene #CdA #NorthIdaho and it has been absolutely appalling to watch this, and the #KCRCC's related attack on #PublicLibraries. There are those of us organizing to oppose them, to reinforce the knowledge that they cannot operate monolithically and unopposed. It's an often discouraging but absolutely necessary effort.

Oh forgot! I am a #HumanistAtheist (#Humanist, #Atheist), though often sharply critical of #WhiteManAtheism and Enlightenment Humanism in general. And I live in #CdA, #CoeurdAlene #NorthIdaho #InlandPNW #PNW. North Idaho politics still baffles me a lot of the time after four years here. But I've found a lot of great #Progressive activists here, and a great #disability community, oddly enough.
