#reclaimmlk — Public Fediverse posts

I wrote this back in 2020 https://bikestylelife.com/2020/01/20/street-of-dreams-can-we-live-the-martin-luther-king-jr-way/. If your town has a street named after Dr. King, how well does it reflect the values he stood for? If they don't have one and they're going to propose a renaming, which street would do the most to honor his spirit?

Geschichtserzählungen, die die Kontinuität von Rassismus und Ungleichheit betonen – wie das #1619Project – werden von Trump und Co. dagegen als „spalterisch“ diffamiert. Der Konflikt um Erinnerung ist zugleich ein Streit um den Zustand und die Zukunft der amerikanischen Demokratie. (2/3) #ReclaimMLK

One of Martin Luther King Jr.'s greatest speeches but less well known because of its more controversial message.

1967 prangerte King in einer Rede in New York „the giant triplets of racism, extreme materialism, and militarism“ an. #ReclaimMLK setzt sich für eine Erinnerung an King als radikalen Aktivisten ein, der für systemische Veränderungen kämpfte, gegen Segregation, aber auch gegen Armut und Krieg.(2/3)

#SURJ #BayArea members showed up earlier today to let the people know about the upcoming week of #ReclaimMLK events. Join your community Monday, January 15th at 11am for a Rally and March at Oscar Grant Plaza

Today's excellent things: using my rusty old social media skills to help with the #ReclaimMLK march in Oakland today, very good leftovers in my fridge, a three-hour evening nap, first draft writing for the first time in ages because I finished a second draft of a novel yesterday.

Big turnout for Youth vs Apocalypse event at Oscar Grant Plaza. Hundreds of students walked out of class today for Oakland Climate Strike and Resilience Village.
