Just trying to be solutionary.
“A culture that has religiously embraced criminalization as essential, redemptive, and solutionary has conditioned us to accept this rhetoric and left many people unprepared to practice solidarity with targeted, scapegoated communities.”
My weekly curated list of must-read articles and a breakdown of Trump's lawless use of deportation and rendition—and some thoughts on what those practices mean for us all.
Must-Reads and Some Thoughts on Deportations, Renditions, and Dictatorial Collaborations
While pundits fixate on whether Trump will openly defy court orders, his administration continues to violate them, ignoring rulings and telling one story in court and another in public.

That is my book Saving Us peeking out from behind Michael Mann’s The New Climate War – both books even more relevant today than when we wrote them!

This is my first post here. Hoping to find: 1) A Solutionary mindset that avoids ‘us and them’
2) Critical and systems thinking
3) Compassionate hearts
4) Motivation to build a future where all people, animals and nature can flourish.
To a new dawn.

I just attended the first session of the Institute for Humane Education Solutionary Micro-credential workshop. It's great to be digging into this work and learning more about the Solutionary Framework. Looking forward to what comes next in the course. #solutionaries #humaneeducation #Edusky

Yeah the "just to feel something" phenomenon is real, but it does not explain our current predicament. And the idea that making life harder is somehow solutionary, or how we avoid fascism—well, that just takes us down the wrong road in a potentially dangerous way. No hate for OP, they're just wrong.

What's on my mind? Solutionary futures, youth with vision, climate fiction, and how we have more answers than we think. Another world is possible and solutions abound. mailchi.mp/riverasun/so...

Solutionary futures are possible - and closer than you think.
From solarpunk stories to youth visions for ending violence, there's plenty of good ideas out there. We need the will and the vision to support them.

HSR like always is the flashy headline, but the details rely much more on boosting existing programs, such as a huge boost to Fed-State/CRISI/Amtrak, formula funding for rail (!), and electrification (a Solutionary Rail mainstay)! Highly doubt this advances though.

Grace Lee Boggs was born on this day in 1915 in Providence, R.I. She was a philosopher and author whose activism lay at the intersection of labor rights and Black liberation. She became a “solutionary” who taught multiple generations the power of grassroots community organizing. /1
