"The Post-Literate Interface
The most important substitution may be #literacy itself.
Mass literacy and the mass #middleclass were parts of the same settlement. Industrial states needed #citizens who could read newspapers, manuals, ballots, contracts, timetables, regulations and forms. Bureaucratic modernity was built out of text and therefore required large numbers of #humanreaders.
The text is not disappearing. Law, science, finance, administration and corporate life will remain intensely textual. What changes is who reads."

MN filed suit against TX Gov Abbott to compel extradition of #ICE officer charged in connection w #shooting #deaths #murder #DHS of 2 US #citizens in #Minneapolis. Abbott said flatly he has no intention of complying w #Minnesota' extradition requests —sitting governor openly defying another state's #legal process to protect a federal agent charged with #killing #American citizens.

Our campaign to get out the vote in Palestinian society in Israel is on 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️
Ahead of the fall election, we’re planning to reach hundreds of thousands of Palestinian citizens across the country. (1/3)

Palestinian citizens have historically voted in lower numbers than Jewish Israelis, partly due to suppression and racism.

And only 53% of Palestinian citizens are projected to vote this year.

But we’re determined to ensure everyone has the opportunity to make their voice heard. (2/3)

Our role as the largest Jewish-Palestinian grassroots movement in Israel is to fight for everyone to be able to influence our political reality. (3/3)

…At least 22 people have been fired on by agents involved in Trump’s #deportation crackdown since he took office for his second term in January 2025. Six people, including three #US #citizens, have been killed as a result of those #shootings, nearly all of which involved officers firing at people in vehicles.

[because they weren’t properly trained. And they believe they can kill with impunity.]
