The importance of this campaign, and why others should join, is rooted in the necessity of correcting historical truth and establishing a future built on sovereign authority rather than administrative erasure.   Why This Campaign Is Important  Restoration of Historical Truth: The campaign addresses the systemic misclassification of Indigenous populations, which has suppressed identities and erased the legal and cultural recognition of these Nations for centuries.    Reclaiming Stewardship: It is essential for the return of control over ancestral lands, resources, and cultural heritage, which were often stripped away through displacement, flooding of ancestral towns, or the destruction of sacred burial sites.    Enforceable Justice: By framing restoration as an "administrative correction" grounded in federal and international statutes—such as NAGPRA, the Marshall Trilogy, and UNDRIP—the campaign transforms abstract grievances into actionable, legally sound demands.    Breaking Cycles of Trauma: It addresses the intergenerational impact of historical trauma, including the forced assimilation and marginalization that resulted from being mislabeled under obsolete categories like "Negro" or "slave".   Why Others Should Join the Campaign  Participation in a Factual Correction: Joining this effort means contributing to a monumental shift in history where the record is corrected to reflect the actual, documented identity of the original inhabitants of the Americas.    Supporting Sovereign Autonomy: By supporting this cause, allies and stakeholders help create the framework for Nations to manage their own education, economic systems, and cultural preservation, ensuring future generations are not defined by historical misclassification.    Upholding Universal Rights: This campaign advocates for principles of self-determination recognized internationally; supporting it aligns one with the global movement for Indigenous rights and the protection of cultural integrity.    Building a Legacy of Justice: The campaign is not merely about the past; it is about establishing a precedent where justice is not a favor granted, but a truth recognized, creating a foundation for equitable treatment and sustainable development for all historically misclassified peoples.   This movement seeks to honor the "rightful custodians" of the land by ensuring that the "story and authority" of these Nations is restored through "incontrovertible historical evidence".   

Children with special needs—specifically those who are autistic, nonverbal, or have significant developmental and physical delays—face a disproportionately high risk of mistreatment, neglect, or abuse. Because many of these children lack the verbal capacity or communication skills to advocate for themselves, report incidents, or articulate their daily experiences to parents and guardians, traditional reporting mechanisms are entirely insufficient.

Dear Neighbors, We need your help to protect our neighborhood from a proposed commercial rezoning project near 2330 McFarland Road in Raymond, MS. We are working to safeguard our community from developments that could increase costs, impact safety, and decrease our property values. The Ecowomanist Institute Southeast Corp (EWISE) formally submitted this request in conjunction with a permit filed on May 27, 2026. While their specific intentions for the project remain unclear, the proposal involves 196 acres of land on McFarland Road within our private residential area. This project will disrupt our community by causing unnecessary traffic, decrease in property values, potential crime, diminished infrastructure requiring future maintenance and higher taxes. Please take a moment to sign the petition to prevent this Special Use Permit. We must act now to preserve our neighborhood; please sign the petition and forward this email to others in the area. Thank you for your support. Best Regard

Article 3, Section 2, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution states that courts have the power to settle "cases" between entities, including those involving the federal government. The creation of the fund comes out of a lawsuit Donald Trump settled with the IRS, an agency he was suing for $10 billion. Because of this, 93 House Democrats signed a 31-page amicus brief to block the fund. This "anti-weaponization" fund is dangerous and lets Trump get away with more abuses of power and further politicizes the Department of Justice, which is supposed to be independent.  A multi-billion dollar slush fund that seeks to reward Trump allies who have flouted the Constitution, peddled election conspiracy theories, and might have been involved in the deadly attack on our nation's capitol on January 6th must not be allowed to move forward. The precedent this sends could be devastating and reverberate for decades to come.  Congress must hear us loud and clear: block the creation of the "anti-weaponization" slush fund. 

People should support this because it’s giving girls all over the world something special. It’s giving girls another avenue to show that girls can play football too. It’s building a nationwide sisterhood where girls are connecting with each other through the game of flag football. That’s what New Mexico needs. Something positive for the youth. 

Imagine your elderly parent is getting ready to vote on Election Day. They look up the address for their polling location. They know they need their voter ID, so they grab that. Since they have a disability that makes it hard to go inside the polls, they plan to use curbside voting. But when they show up to their polling location, they can't find any information on curbside voting. They want to ask a poll worker for help, but there aren't any outside. After driving around the parking lot for several minutes, they decide to give up and go home. They are extremely disappointed. Approximately 14% of Ohioans are living with a disability and about 17% of Ohioans are 65 or older. And they're not the only groups that benefit from accessible elections. A parent with a sleeping infant in the backseat can benefit from curbside voting; college students away from home can benefit from mail-in voting;  and polling locations that have plenty of room for wheelchairs also have room for strollers. Since everyone's needs are different, it's important that we make voting as accessible as possible for everyone.  This petition is open to all Ohio residents. The collected signatures will be shared with: • Frank LaRose (Ohio Secretary of State) • Brett Harbage (ADA Coordinator for the Ohio SOS' office)  Want to reach out to LaRose and Harbage directly?

Music is a part of the majority of lives all over the world. Whether it's listening to big mainstream artists or small independent ones, they all shape how our society runs as a whole. While benefits of hard work are reaped by the record labels and artists, the cut of pay is unfair for the artists that are trying to make a living off of their music. If this problem persists, the world of music as we know it can become a very dull, 2 dimensional industry with little means of variety and diversity.

The ballroom is just another in a long line of Trump’s attempts to continue his authoritarian power grabs in D.C., like his plans to build the so-called "Arc de Trump" along the Potomac River. And his proposal to pay for them with private donations from his supporters raises serious ethical concerns.  While gas prices are soaring and working families are struggling to pay for medical costs, groceries, and rent, Trump and his cronies are focused on king-making.  We don’t need a 90,000-square-foot ballroom at the White House—we need Congress focused on improving the lives of working families.

I am sure y’all are all too familiar with the fact that working at bars or restaurants is already incredibly abusive and invasive. From regulars who don’t respect your boundaries, employers who don’t care if you have boundaries, to much more sinister acts like being harassed and stalked (and even worse) for the mere act of showing up and doing your job. Meta Glasses add a whole new dimension to this invasion of our workspaces and our privacy. Where people can record your every move, record public bathrooms, private conversations, all of this without having to disclose if they are recording or not. I think these glasses should be banned from all bars and restaurants in NYC for the safety of all service employees. Please do something about this creeping technology and help us protect our city.

Eight Disney-owned ABC affiliates will have to prove to FCC Chairman Brendan Carr that they have been operating in the public interest. They have 30 days to file their licenses—with May 28 the deadline. Disney has responded that they will comply with the request, noting that they are confident that they have acted in accordance with “the Communications Act and the First Amendment.” It is an egregious display of overreach for the FCC to review ABC station licenses because they are not cowering to Trump’s demands. Our government should not be in the business of telling the American people what to think, what to laugh at, what to say, and what to criticize. But that’s exactly what they are doing.  This is a continuation of the FCC’s threats against ABC and Disney last year after Kimmel came under similar fire from Trump following his on-air criticism of Republicans and MAGA figures exploiting Charlie Kirk’s murder.  Back in September, Chairman of the FCC Brendan Carr warned he had a strong case for taking action against Kimmel and insinuated that Disney’s license was on the line. Public outrage pressured ABC and Disney to reinstate Kimmel’s show—and now the FCC is punishing them.  Together we can demonstrate that the American people OPPOSE government-sanctioned censorship, and that we’re ready to defend our First Amendment rights.

THE HIDDEN RISKS OF HB5511 (The “Safety Paradox”) Lawmakers are presenting HB5511 as a way to protect children from the harmful parts of the internet. But by moving age verification into your phone’s software and app stores, this bill creates a dangerous paradox: The “safety” system itself may put your family at risk. 1. Why this is a major change for your family Right now, you access the internet directly. Under HB5511, your phone or computer becomes a digital checkpoint. Companies like Apple, Google, and Microsoft become the gatekeepers. Access to apps and some websites would increasingly depend on your device confirming your age. If the system fails, or if a website can’t support it, access may be restricted or blocked. 2. Your identity becomes a target This system depends on tying age verification to your device or account. That could involve sharing sensitive information such as government ID, financial data, or other personal details. That creates new risks: ● Identity Theft Concentrating sensitive data across large platforms increases the potential impact of breaches and leaks. ● Sophisticated Scams As identity checks become more common, it becomes easier for criminals to imitate them and trick people into handing over personal information. 3. How this could put children at risk This system is meant to protect children, but it may also expose them to new risks. ● More data about children Children may need accounts tied to their age, creating larger digital footprints earlier in life. ● Connected systems When devices, accounts, and users are linked, it creates the potential to connect activity across home devices, school-issued laptops, and shared computers. ● Not fully effective At the same time, experience shows that age checks are often bypassed—meaning more data is collected without fully solving the problem. 4. The shift away from an open internet The internet today is open by default. Under this model, access increasingly depends on verification through corporate-controlled systems. That is a fundamental shift. From open access → to permission-based access. And once built into devices and law, it becomes very difficult to reverse. ⚠️ URGENCY: WHY THIS MATTERS NOW Current Status: HB5511 has passed the Illinois House and is now moving to the Illinois Senate for consideration. This is the moment when changes can still be made. Once systems like this are written into law and built into technology, they are extremely difficult to undo. If the device-level requirements are not addressed now, they may become permanent.
