I'll be at the #NoKings #Rally and #March in #Chicago tomorrow: mobilize.us/nokings/event/7863 12-2pm, begins at Daley Plaza. See you there!

MobilizeNo Kings Rally and March · No KingsIn America, we don’t put up with would-be kings. Join Indivisible Chicago and our partner organizations (listed below) for a rally and march in downtown Chicago as we come together to say NO KINGS! June 14 is a national day of action and mass mobilization in response to the increasing authoritarian excesses and corruption from Trump and his allies. We’ve watched as they’ve cracked down on free speech, detained people for their political views, threatened to deport American citizens, and defied the courts. They’ve done this all while continuing to serve and enrich their billionaire cronies. On June 14—Flag Day—Donald Trump is planning tanks in the streets of our capitol and a made-for-TV display for his birthday. But real power isn’t staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. And, the flag doesn’t belong to Donald Trump. It belongs to us! No Kings is a nationwide day of defiance. We’re taking action to reject authoritarianism—and show the world what democracy really looks like. On June 14th, we’re standing together to say no thrones, no crowns, no kings. Join us in Chicago!

Our current #information handouts for the public. All have been updated for this year.
I'm putting some into my little free library on Kamloops Ave(only LFL on the street). I helped with the Welland Community Orchard map/brochure.

More helping hands are always welcome! Come & help us out with local food security efforts, if you live in Victoria/Saanich/Esquimalt & surrounding areas! There's several different projects to choose from:
lifecyclesproject.ca/our-proje

A collection of promotional materials for the Welland Community Orchard and LifeCycles organizations. The materials include brochures advertising volunteer opportunities in harvesting urban fruit, participating in seasonal workshops, and ways to donate. QR codes and contact information are included. 3. Technical (Including visual elements and composition) Eye-level, medium shot on a wood-grain surface shows several colorful promotional flyers and brochures for the Welland Community Orchard and LifeCycles organizations. Brochures are layered and angled slightly. Prominent colors: green, white, and red. Text elements include "Welland Community Orchard", "Fruit for all is more than just fruit", "DON'T LET GOOD FRUIT GO BAD", "POLLINATE LEARNING.", contact information, and QR codes. The LifeCycles logo is present, along with illustrative graphics.

This raises some important points

The best way to build genuine support for climate action in rural Australia is by supporting them in times like this, not trying to use their suffering for political gain or throwing "i told you so's", and showing support on this will help build much needed connection on other issues that we need their support on

theguardian.com/commentisfree/

Text screenshot: As we try to get our heads around the reality of climate change, the largest obstacle to meaningful action appears to be the siloing of stakeholder communities. If droughts are invisible to city slickers, why should any farming community believe transmission lines are anything but an eyesore?
Text screenshot: Where and how that honest community conversation takes place is now the challenge. It demands a cultural humility the internet is unlikely to encourage. Overcoming the silos between rural experience, urban attention and the policy bunkers of government is hard, but it has to happen.
