#MutualAidRequest #HelpFolksLive2026 #LivingWhileBlack

@AnnaAnthro From Gustavo Arellano in yesterday's LA Times op-ed.

I'm renewing my passport.

I'm also holding off on going home to LA to visit my family's graves.

I fear getting arrested simply for #LivingWhileBlack.

I've been through this shit my entire life.

Especially growing up in LA's roughest neighborhoods where LAPD and LASD always did shit like this. And still do this to Blacks and Latinos.

@cobalt I can verify it also. I went to a few Lakers-Suns games at the fairgrounds back in the day. McDowell Rd was crazy. Lots of bullshit involving police. Including what we call #LivingWhileBlack. That was over 40 years ago. It certainly hasn't changed for the better.

@thepoliticalcat Yep. I put flowers in front of my dad's house on Duboce every time I'm in town. I hurry up and get on the N as soon as I'm done because of SFPD. I know about #LivingWhileBlack.

❝Antisemitism continues to account for more REPORTED hate crimes than any other category.❞

I wonder when ANYONE will be ready for the conversation about
WHO REPORTS HATE CRIMES¹.

For some of us, it's just a fucking fact of existing.

Also:
Cops are literally half the problem.

It hasn't even been a month since this report came out:

https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/gaps-in-toronto-police-policies-have-contributed-to-systemic-anti-black-racism-ohrc-report-1.6687208

Why'm I gonna report hate crimes to the PEOPLE COMMITTING HATE CRIMES ON THE DAILY?

As we were discussing earlier, “Racism, intentional or not, is still racism", and it's everywhere and affects all of us:
