Leslie Priscilla - Latinx Parenting

Latinx parents don’t have to hurt their children to raise them and the only reason they ever did was because of the dynamics that historical conquest and oppressive systems created and were then passed down hierarchically AND we can heal this when we heal ourselves in community.

literally JUST graduated with a degree in sociology this week & we were talking abt the chemical accident in the garden grove area @ work. so i made a comment that things like that don’t really happen in white/affluent areas. we are all brown. coworker says, ‘noo… (1/3)

I think about this a lot.

When you deny another person’s humanity, you diminish your own.

Colonisation, exploitation, and resources theft!

We aren't back in 1930s-40s Germany. America is the new American Jim Crow South 2026

I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.” The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated. #MLK #MLKDay #Mountaintop #MLKDay2026

I will NOT be doing this. I will be praying over the protection of my community. And when I see undocumented folks, I will offer words of encouragement & I will let them know how to stay safe from you. It won’t be prayer your Gestapo will get. Prayer? NOPE. Justice? Absolutely.

James Baldwin Response to “Why must you always concentrate on color?”

I really like these words: Matriarchy Elderhood Soil Sunshine Breath Divinity Abuela Pajaritos Creation Sembrar Soltar Surrender Putazo Cheese Journals Children Warmth Respeto Gratitude Bread Relatives Land Pleasure Mutuality Muscles Paradigm Energy Spirit Body Heart Water

The more I age, the more free I feel. I don’t know if it’s with the increased awareness of my mortality, which has only come through experiencing loss & grief & really feeling the ephemeral. I see my gray hairs & I no longer think “old” 🫣 I think “developing elder”✨👵🏽✨

Republicans love destabilizing countries and then crying about immigration

@JDCocchiarella Yes.

To still believe America are the good guys despite the huge amount of evil the country has done around the world decade after decade requires a mix of supremacy, racism, denial and cultural brain washing that is truly frightening

In their New Year's prediction, Peruvian shamans said that the fall of Maduro, the end of Ukranian War and a major illness for President Trump will all happen in 2026.

Rachel Maddow on Venezuela: “There are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of drugs into the US?”

Psst- Naming solidarity with the people of a country, with their right to live in dignity, peace & freedom from ALL oppression, does NOT equate to being in solidarity with their government. My solidarity is never to ANY government. It is always to the people. Hope that helps.

Bombing Venezuela while coordinating a genocide in Palestine while threatening to attack Iran (again) while destabillizing Somalia while carrying out a heist in the DRC... US imperialism is the greatest threat to peace and security in our world today and it's not even close.

Oh, that's why America attacked Venezuela

In full solidarity with the people, the families, the children of Venezuela. In full solidarity with all resistance to U.S. imperialism. May all venomous violent vampirical colonial empires fall. For the survival of us all, they must.

@priscadorcas This is a warning to me! I’m already feeling eagerness about the next book & my first doesn’t even come out until August. I need to calm down. It’s a wild intense experience (my ADHD 🧠 loves the intensity). But we will be writing forever bc there’s so much testimony to give!!!
