My mini-me spent his day using a 3-D printer to make a medical mask for his high risk Uncle who is at home waiting for a heart transplant and he is printing more to donate. He makes my heart smile everyday!

i hate that me advocating for reading makes me come off as elitist to some people. our relationship to literature shouldnt have anything to do with class but it does because of capitalism. everyone should be able to freely access books. that’s why i partner with libraries
these fires are a good time to think about the inmate firefighters who save countless lives while california pays them almost nothing because they’re serving time

she said “president trump thinks you want to defund the police” and Biden’s natural instinct was to laugh. LAUGHTER. after folks spent a whole summer organizing against police brutality and campaigning to defund their departments. so when does the “accountability” process start?
Thank you for making my mom’s day with these encouraging comments. She said y’all be sure to come see her!!! Trade N Books on 1416 Madison Ave Montgomery, AL. You will not be disappointed, this place is HUGE! 📚
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASSATA!!! 🎂✊🏾
Her autobiography was one of our May picks. We highly recommend it! Her resistance against state violence with revolutionary principles and action inspires us everyday. So do a good thing for yourself today and read Assata.
Last month we sent 756 books to our incarcerated book club members! Next month we plan to send 800 books!!!! Help us make this happen by purchasing a book from our prison chapter book wishlist 🙏🏾💕

Based on logs from 28 Amazon facilities in 16 states, the study found workers at Amazon are more likely to be injured at work than lumberjacks or coal miners are. The injuries don't involve small cuts and bruises — they're serious enough where 88.9% involved have to miss work...
In order to maintain Noname’s Book Club and grow it beyond just a social media page we will be launching merch to cover our expenses and to pay staff.
(I been trying really hard not to sell y’all shit but I’m learning it’s ok to ask for support) ☺️
