Who gets to be Latino? This Argentinian actor has a take latimes.com/delos/story/20…

“You can’t behold evil and then return and not speak on it.” Ta-Nehisi Coates speaks about how an experience in Palestine illuminated the connections between the African American and Palestinian liberation struggles, and the moral responsibility to speak out.

The fact that the same states banning BIPOC and queer books from schools and criminalizing trans identities are ALSO banning the word "Latinx" should be all you need to know about the REAL reason behind people's objection to that word ... #sacandoelcobre

@girardinl I’ll send you pics of Lucy and Rosa in their costumes.

Some of my Halloween looks from throughout the years! I'll share this year's costume tomorrow, and I can't wait to see photos of yours 🎃🖤

Why did Latino L.A. city council members say such racist things? - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/…

What's happened in #LA is not isolated & not acceptable. Internal community work is needed everywhere. This is why we are holding a community session for non-Black Latinx/e people who want tools for unpacking their own internalized anti-Blackness. RSVP: forms.gle/cDsM5wgMzrkwPu…

@girardinl Are your friends aware of any abandoned homes you can simply squat in?

@girardinl Think of how much leverage you’d have if you bought TWO houses.

Another friend tried to convince me that I need to buy a house. Friend: If you buy a house, you'll have leverage. Me: Leverage for what? Friend: *waves hands in the air* For, you know, leveraging. (this tweet ian't an invitation for others to tell me why I should buy a house)

People surprised about white people freaking out over a black mermaid seem to forget that white folks freaked out so hard about a black President they elected a clown fascist from TV who promised to build a wall to keep out brown folks.

@girardinl Lauren Girardin: No outline, just vibes.

Just me, staring at a story I'm writing, willing it to flow. Flow, damn you!

@HildavHip The only way you could be even more xicana is if you also had a Selena air freshener

Tell me you’re Chicana…

If the political establishment acknowledges that the Republican Party has mainstreamed white supremacist violence, what then is the function of “bipartisanship”?

I'd like to point out that your idea that life starts at conception is incongruous with your idea that legal rights, like citizenship and counting for representation in Congress, doesn't start till birth, and moral rights, like health care and education, don't start at all.

I'd like to point out that your idea that life starts at conception is your religious opinion. It's no different than the Egyptian belief that the heart was the locus of the "soul," so they would preserve it, while liquifying the useless brain.

What a privilege to work with such brilliant and compassionate leaders - and a race equity driven organization!

@cyndisuarez @npquarterly @cyndisuarez I love how your writing is so expansive to contextual the trajectory of the movement, and also so very topical to highlight what this moment is telling us.

Today is the shared birthday of Malcolm X and Yuri Kochiyama. Their friendship is a beautiful example of the history of Black and Asian solidarity. Take some time to read about their lives and legacies! Art credit: “American Gothic X" by Frank Chi and Eric Uhlir #aapihm
