Beneath this tattered tarpaulin, life and death are equal, separated by a mere fraction of a second.
The whistle of bullets piercing the air around you is not just a sound; it is a constant reminder that survival here is a matter of chance, that the difference between staying and leaving is a matter of centimeters.
Your heart does not survive. It remains suspended in a state of acute fear and anticipation, counting your breaths and weighing every whisper of air that passes over the tent. You do not become accustomed to fear, but rather to the idea that you live under a roof that cannot deflect a bullet, nor shield you from the chill of loss.
We do not wait for safety; we simply wait for the sky to fall silent for a moment so we can catch our breaths, breaths stifled by fear.
Your support is a lifeline that helps us persevere.

Dems in #Maine’s #2ndDistrict race tackle #tribal topics in #PresqueIsleME
By Cameron Levasseur, May 13, 2026
"The four Democrats competing in a June primary to face former Gov. #PaulLePage for Maine’s 2nd Congressional District met Wednesday night in Presque Isle at a forum put on by the #WabanakiAlliance to discuss tribal sovereignty and other issues facing the state’s native population.
"Hosted by the #MikmaqNation, one of Maine’s four #WabanakiNations, the event lasted two hours and covered a broad range of topics, from #WaterRights to gaming legislation to the teaching of #NativeHistory in Maine’s schools.
"The candidates — State Auditor #MattDunlap, state Sen. #JoeBaldacci, former political operative #JordanWood and social worker #PaigeLoud — agreed on nearly everything, chiefly in their wholehearted support of #TribalSovereignty.
"#Sovereignty has dominated the political conversation around Maine’s tribes for years, with majority support for its expansion in the state legislature countered by opposition from the state’s executive leaders, including LePage and then Gov. #JanetMills.
" 'Only when I worked on these issues federally … did I understand how wrong Maine has been to its tribes and the need to rectify that #injustice,' Wood said.
If elected, all four said they would reintroduce a 2022 bill put forth by U.S. Rep. Jared Golden, to amend the #MaineIndianClaimsSettlementAct of 1980 and give the Wabanaki the same rights under federal law as the 570 #FederallyRecognizedTribes.
"Golden currently represents the 2nd District but abruptly announced last fall that he would not seek reelection. His bill failed in the Senate after it was blocked by Sen. #AngusKing, another Maine politician who has expressed skepticism at tribal rights expansions."Archived version:

Literary Hub – How a 1977 Czech Writers’ Manifesto Applies to the Stark Realities of America in 2025
Illustration from article, no credit.How a 1977 Czech Writers’ Manifesto Applies to the Stark Realities of America in 2025
What We Can All Learn From the Courage of Charter 77
By Jonny Diamond, October 10, 2025
The wonderful Czech writer Ivan Klima died this past weekend at the age of 94. Klima lived a remarkable, principled life, having survived both the Nazi occupation of Prague (he spent three years in the concentration camp at Terezin as a boy), and the post-1968 repression of the Soviet regime.
Unlike his more famous literary compatriots, Milan Kundera and Josef Skvorecky, Klima stuck around in Czechoslovakia, despite being forbidden from publishing for 20 years. For two decades Klima was consigned primarily to menial work, as a street sweeper, bricklayer, orderly… But he kept writing. And he kept resisting, through the publication of literary samizdat (his own and others), organizing clandestine salons, and helping to disseminate Charter 77, an artists’ manifesto named for the year it was written.
Editor’s Note: Charter 77 appended below.
Charter-77DownloadThe main authors behind Charter 77—Václav Havel, Jan Patočka, and Pavel Kohout, who were responding to the Communist government’s crackdown on free expression—generated its moral (and to some extent legal) authority by citing two UN human rights covenants signed by the Czechoslovak government in 1968, in the lead up to the so-called Prague Spring. [Spoiler: the Russians didn’t approve, sent tanks into Prague, and crushed any hope of a freer society].
The Communist regime quickly made it a crime to distribute copies of Charter 77, calling it “an anti-state, anti-socialist, and demagogic, abusive piece of writing,” and deeming its signatories to be “traitors and renegades” and “agents of imperialism.” As for how they saw themselves, the organizers behind Charter 77 were very clear about being nothing more than an ad hoc confederation of likeminded people, and certainly not an opposition party. In their own words, they were a “loose, informal, and open association of people . . . united by the will to strive individually and collectively for respect for human and civil rights in our country and throughout the world.” (So, more of a shared set of beliefs than a formal organization, like, you know, antifa.)
Why is a 50-year-old writers’ manifesto worth thinking about now? First of all, the aforementioned human rights covenants, cited at length in the charter, map neatly over what we still like to think of as western democratic ideals of free expression and individual liberty. And just as Charter 77 decries the state crack-down on those ideals in 1970s Czechoslovakia, we too can cite many and obvious authoritarian crimes from the Trump administration circa 2025.
From government officials menacing late-night comedians to masked thugs landing helicopters on apartment buildings, from Democratic officials threatened with jail time by the president to the brazen flouting of the rule of law, America’s decades-long drift into authoritarianism has sped up dramatically in the last nine months. We are in the middle of an anti-democratic sea-change, and as each week passes the likes of Stephen Miller grow bolder in flouting their fascist inclinations.
But it’s never too late to fight for basic human freedoms, for the right to be who you are and to say what you want, the right to not go hungry or get shot at school or lose everything because you get sick. Luckily, Charter 77—which is but one of countless historical examples of courage in the face of tyranny—offers a clear blueprint for how we might respond to the Trump administration’s attacks on free expression and the rule of law:
With regard to the targeting of pro-Palestinian ideas on college campuses:
The right to freedom of expression, for example, guaranteed by Article 19 of the first-mentioned covenant, is in our case purely illusory. Tens of thousands of our citizens are prevented from working in their own fields for the sole reason that they hold views differing from official ones, and are discriminated against and harassed in all kinds of ways by the authorities and public organizations.

#CoverUp at #KuperIsland : B.C. task force came too late for abused runaways.
When #clergy members at a #BritishColumbia #ResidentialSchool were accused of sexually abusing children in 1939, they were shuffled out of the province. Sixty years later, investigators smelled a cover-up.
The six young #Indigenous boys were reported missing from the notorious institution at 11:30 p.m. on January 8, 1939. They’d taken canoes to escape across the water to their family homes near the town of #Chemainus on #VancouverIsland.
The now-defunct British Columbia Provincial Police opened an investigation into the students’ claims, but after two Catholic clergy were transferred out of province and one staff member was dismissed, no charges were laid.
For a very long time, it looked like the story was finished. But at the end of the century, the #RCMP #Native Indian Residential School Task Force reopened the 1939 case file.

Your Revolution - Sarah Jones
https://youtu.be/xRgIGMwZd2o?si=Kj-yoIZFD5C-OVAP
From a past #DefPoetry show.After airing “Your Revolution,” a #SpokenWord #poem that critiqued #HipHop’s treatment of #women, a #radio station was issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture #NAL by the #FCC, which deemed the #poem #obscene. Jones attempted to sue the FCC which resulted in the removal of the NAL which would have fined the radio station $7,000. However, Jones’ case was dismissed. Yet, another case of #injustice against #BlackWomen who spoke out in public arenas.

Black Witness, Amy McQuire’s book delivers a critique of the way mainstream media operates
"Amy McQuire has been writing on Indigenous affairs since she was 17 years old. Over the past two decades, she has reported on most of the key events involving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, including numerous deaths in custody, the Palm Island uprising, the Bowraville murders and the Northern Territory Intervention. She has also exposed the misrepresentations and violence of the mainstream media’s reports, as well as their omissions and silences altogether in regards to Indigenous matters."

‘The perpetrators of injustice should be named' - Dhoombak Goobgoowana – translated as “truth-telling”
Melbourne "university’s continued commemoration of individuals discussed in this book prolongs trauma. Correcting history by merely adding the long-suppressed details of the fatal impact of the colonial mission on tens of thousands of Aboriginal people is rightly regarded as an insufficient response. Finding an “honourable” solution – including renaming – must involve telling the whole truth about history."
“The perpetrators of injustice should be named, and their roles in historical events fully recounted. However, merely deleting their names from buildings, rooms, courtyards and roads, and not explaining why, compounds the injustices with further acts of denial."
“This kind of truth-telling is necessary … if our community is to prevent the repetition of commemorative rituals that honour racists, thieves and body snatchers. Denying parts of our history is simply lying. And this is why racism persists.The lying in Australian history – the lying about Australian history – is one of the major contributors to racism.” - Marcia Langton

The late civil rights champion and Congressional Rep, John Lewis has always been a personal hero. He suffered many things and even been jailed.
He encouraged people to be "Good Trouble" to create nessesary change. When one is suppressed, censored or wrongfully punished to silence, they must be doing something right.
Account suspension on a certain instance by "white" attitudes with power, seems to be a small example of this. Thank you for the acknowledgement of my being "Good Trouble". Other advocates have been suspended by the same as well.
