They did it for journalism. Steph Solis is on Threads on the best (and most overrated) slices in the Boston area. the descriptions are spot on for Santarpio’s, (boo) Pizzeria Regina’s (eh) and Alfredo’s Italian kitchen (solid), and I’m eager to try the rest!

So much love for state school students who are overwhelmingly working class, many first generation, without a safety net for violence, arrest, or expulsion and doing this w/ little recognition. Truly a risk-taking principled stand in solidarity

this is exactly why every struggle for love, freedom, and justice has to also be an abolitionist struggle: the cops will be called in against you. This is what it means to fund the police

What’s noteworthy here is how the BPD attribute the mass arrests to the “camping ban” that the Wu administration introduced last year and the city council voted for. It was a bad policy when wielded against unhoused people and it’s now being wielded against student demonstrators.

Extra important to remember today:

Dawn had a team for 4 years that didn’t fight, didn’t argue, or speak negatively in the media

Yall still called them thugs, streetfighters, and instigators

It doesn’t matter WHAT they do.

Lynette Woodard reached 3,649 career points WITHOUT a 3 point line.

Let that sink in…

Without a single 3-pointer…

So all of her points were accumulated by two point field goals and free throws ONLY.

These are country songs. Not country influenced. You’re trying so hard to mark them as R&B so you can stifle Black creativity and limit our artists to one genre. It ain’t happenin.

🧵Personal news: Claudio Martinez and I are launching a nonprofit news initiative we're calling the Greater Boston News Bureau, with the aim of supporting local news outlets that serve communities of color in and around Boston.

If Candace Parker come bck and give us another season, I don’t wanna hear ANY slander!! Idc if She misses an shot, it’s the baskets fault for moving… if she slips, she saw something on the floor and had to pick it up… SHE DONT FOUL…

the wife of one of the most famous academics in the world parking her car and chasing down a student on the sidewalk to accuse them of making other people feel unsafe is the ultimate encapsulation of the campus safety discourse

Help me (RETWEET THIS LIKE CRAZY) wish Ro True a #HAPPYBIRTHDAY

❤️❤️❤️

It’s the best day of the year!! A new cohort of amazing leaders and change makers has chosen NLC Boston to be the next part of their journey and we couldn’t be more excited about that!

Can’t wait for another incredible year working with the best people I know ❤️❤️❤️

framing 'decolonization' as hate speech is such a clear confirmation of the insanity and denial that oppressed people are made to deal with. the moment people begin to denounce the evil they've endured is when the goal posts are pushed back. every time.

We’re celebrating the incredible incarcerated leaders, formerly incarcerated organizers, families of incarcerated loved ones & coalition who fought for years to make it happen!

Thank you Senator Creem, Rep Tyler, cosponsors, & the Governor for making No Cost Calls the law!

So it is racism, not a lack of awareness. Understood.

These workers at some of the biggest brands on Earth are getting barely $2 a day. Damn right they should shut it all down.

Y’all. Y’ALL. GET IN HERE. 😭😭😭😭😭
