New small relief print from @monicatrinidad.bsky.social ! May our daily choices, actions, and commitments continue to pollinate just futures for all who demand it. 🦋🐝🌸
justseeds.org/product/poll...

Inspired by the historic groundbreaking ceremony of the Chicago Torture Justice Memorial, proceeds from this limited edition print supports future community engagement, programming, and mutual aid projects at the memorial site.

Organizing, largely led by the survivors and their family members, made this happen. This permanent public memorial honoring survivors of police torture is the first of its kind in the U.S. It was also the final, unfulfilled promise of the Reparations Ordinance that Chicago’s City Council passed in 2015—which was also the first time survivors of racially-motivated police torture have been given reparations under international law. This memorial doesn’t undo the harm that was done, but it creates a critical space to collectively remember, heal, and learn. Oppression also thrives on forgetting—so the work doesn’t end once the memorial is constructed.

First Reader slot applications have stuffed our mailbox to the brim. But so far no applications for the Marketing or Production Editors who will be working alongside our existing marketing and production editors, which is where we need the most help.

People keep searching for the definition of fascism, as if trying ever so sincerely to understand current events.

They say Economies of Scale like it's gospel. HAVE MORE. OR ELSE. But like, could we maybe have just a little less meningitis and pertussus?

Ask the questions that have no answers. Invest in the millennium. Plant sequoias. Say that your main crop is the forest that you did not plant, that you will not live to harvest. —Wendell Berry
