March has been a little rough for me. I didn't do that much, honestly. I got sick multiple times and my flare ups have also been pretty bad. I've been exhausted and not as motivated to work on anything, but I'm hoping to turn that around in April.
I've been inspired by a bunch of other bloggers (mostly Leilukin) to start writing these little monthly recap posts. Work and brainfog makes it hard to write long posts or write super often, and to be honest, I don't think I even do enough to warrant a weekly recap, but a monthly one seems pretty manageable. It's a nice compromise between how frequently I'm currently posting and a challenge like 100 Days To Offload. So, you'll be getting at least 12 blog posts a year, plus my usual other blog posts about various topics, hopefully.
Without any further ado, what've I been up to in January?
I considered adding these to my next post, but I think this is really important and I don't want it to get buried underneath a bunch of unrelated stuff.
These are some online resources I've amassed over the last month or so related to protecting your community from ICE. Some are location specific while some aren't. Many of these are available in both English and Spanish, but some are available in other languages as well.
ICE Out of New York- "A coalition of immigrant rights organizations demanding an end to the brutal ICE operations in NY."
Red Cards - Printable cards that let you know your rights
Resources for Whistle Warriors - Google Drive with resources on making, distributing, and using whistles. Also Includes zines and flyers that you can print out yourself!
Sanctuary Campus Network - "A coalition of students, faculty, and staff organizing to protect and support those most vulnerable against state repression and violence under the current administration."
