#OtD 23 Aug 1927 in the U.S.:
Nicola Sacco & Bartolomeo Vanzetti, anarchist workers and Italian immigrants, were executed for the alleged killing of a bank guard during an armed robbery. The presiding judge admitted they did not perform the murder or the robbery, but were "nevertheless morally culpable" for being "enemies of our existing institutions." Hundreds of thousands around the world protested their execution.

Comrades! Do you need #GraphicDesign help with a #logo or #flier ? I do #illustration and I am willing to donate my labour to activists in need.
The venn diagram of people who think community standards are "censorship" versus people who think personal boundaries are "controlling" isn't a circle, but there's a lot of overlap.
US South politics, direct action, +
About a year after Durham NC protestors took down the confederate statue at the old courthouse, UNC-Chapel Hill protestors have done the same with the confederate statue on campus. (I love the slogan on the hat the protestors stuck on the statue afterward: "Do it like Durham", though that's obviously not the most important bit.)
So pleased that Silent Sam has finally been toppled!

hello Mastodon! we've had a zesty couple days here and i just wanted to offer a very quick thought.
while nobody can predict with 100% certainty what this platform will ultimately become over time, it's already within your grasp to make it positive and powerful.
when you find good people here, when you find YOUR people, form a real connection with them. build a real network to share support within, and affect change in the world.
