The U.S. supports fascism abroad and we are experiencing fascism at home. These coos are attacking people in Atlanta for protesting police repression and the destruction of a forest.

CHICAGO’S COOK COUNTY JAIL IS STILL VIOLATING HUMAN RIGHTS CCJ CONDITIONS UPDATE 10/4 🧵 Someone was inside for 1 month & reported that the water was consistently undrinkable. He saw a nurse once/week & they would give him a container of water, but it was only enough for 1 day.

There is no safe amount of lead. In Chicago, low-income and communities of color are drinking significant amount of lead in their homes and school. Thank you to all who joined this rally that demanded local and federal action to #gettheleadout @NRDC @bridges_puentes @SE_TaskForce

@EPAMichaelRegan @EPA @POTUS @LVEJO @NRDC @bridges_puentes @SETaskForce @ilenviro @GinaRamirez311 @angtovar @SustainChicago @ChicagosMayor “Chicago and Illinois doesn’t have the work force to tackle its lead pipe problem. We need trade and apprenticeship programs where more people can join the water workforce.” @Chakena_Perry This is not a pipe dream! This could be our reality. Let’s get the pipes out!

COVID-19 cases among people incarcerated in Cook County continue to climb along with the number of people caged in the jail. We know that decarceration is the only way to protect public health. Cook County must take action to ensure this current outbreak doesn't take more lives.

The U.S. military has been polluting Oʻahu's water & sentencing Hawaiians to slow death for generations in the name of "national security" under U.S. colonization. The tanks have been leaking since the 40s when they were built to jets to wage war in Asia. kawaiola.news/ea/he-wai-e-ma…

Ola i ka wai. Demilitarize Hawaiʻi. The issue of Red Hill fuel is inextricable from settler colonialism and militarization. Hoʻihoʻi ea, Hawaiian sovereignty, and environmental justice necessitates that we abolish the U.S. military, the world's largest polluter.

A new first-of-its-kind study analyzed the emissions from 60 M US homes. It found that white households, despite having greater access to energy-efficient measures, have significantly higher emissions than Latino and Black homes. My latest: grist.org/accountability…
