BREAKING: The FTC just banned non-compete agreements. The Federal Trade Commission has issued a final rule making it illegal for bosses to make workers sign noncompetes in any scenario, and voiding nearly all existing noncompetes. This is a game changer for American workers.

Today, #SCOTUS will hear a case that could severely criminalize homelessness. Formerly incarcerated people are almost 10 times more likely to be homeless than the general public – and this ruling could devastate an already vulnerable population. 🧵

He is not an ally, he’s a grifter bigot who will likely try taking footage/doing interviews to push his agenda.
A large crowd is again gathered on the quad at Emory University one day after 23 people were arrested as students attempted to set up a solidarity encampment in protest of the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
This Black student singing gospel (which emerged from the souls and spirits of slaves) while the Black police (who likely heard the same song in church but are doing work descended from slave patrols) is truly something to behold.
White supremacy/ fascism of all types is on the rise
White supremacists are now marching in Charleston, West Virginia. With no police in sight.
As others have pointed out, we don’t have to imagine these things happening to those students. This is a common experience for them. And the response has most typically been to minimize or ignore altogether their experiences, and provide cover to those who harmed them.
Outside agitator discourse in full effect as these encampments spread across US college/university campuses. For some context, read ch. 3 of black scare/red scare in which I historicize the Outside Agitator as a genre of radical Blackness targeted by the state.
JUST SAY YOU MISS UNBRIDLED WHITE SUPREMACY AND BE DONE.
Elite colleges are now reaping the consequences of promoting a new orthodoxy that trashed the postwar ideal of the liberal university, George Packer writes. They're "caught in a trap of their own making, one that has been a long time coming": theatln.tc/O4rxaUeh

In order to overcome salmon population loss, Washington communities will have to confront those difficult and politically thorny decisions, especially when it comes to land rights. This may include restoring riparian habitats to Indigenous management.
