Disability justice activists were an integral part of grassroots efforts to shut down Atlanta’s Cop City. I covered their work in this piece — worth revisiting as we think about who is most vulnerable to the growing police violence in our cities and how we can come together against it.

I spoke to a handful of organizers from across the country about where they're finding hope as we continue the struggle for disability justice into the second year of Trump 2.0. If you're feeling overwhelmed and looking for direction, I hope you'll find it here ❤️‍🩹

There are five days left in my subscriber drive. I do loads of good work. I don't get paid enough. I didn't even get enough sleep this month. Please throw $40 my way. You'll get an annual subscription, and maybe I'll get to take a nap.
