It really cannot be said enough that its mutual aid groups in Texas who are keeping people housed & safe right now. The gov’t can try to blame a lack of resources or unpreparedness or whatever but at the end of the day, community members kept folks safe immediately and for free.

Black and Pink Seattle/Tacoma has about 50 queer/trans/nb prisoners looking for pen pals. Please share this and become a penpal if you can. Let's get every one of these people a penpal! #MutualAid #abolition

Capitalism is a crisis generator. The only way to topple it and build a wholly different world is from below, with masses of ordinary working people taking control of their own lives and society.

The radical core of mutual aid isn’t the provision of services. It’s the relationships that are built and strengthened on the basis of collective self-reliance and solidarity. It’s treating people as agents of, not pawns in, politics.

just a reminder that if you have disposable income you need to be doing direct mutual aid, it can quite literally be the difference between life or death for someone

Thread from a #MutualAid network that I've been helping organize... Please RT and consider donating!
Do you desperately need the $600 stimulus check from the latest COVID relief bill? (Sure, it would be nice, but do you NEED it?) [THREAD from North Durham #MutualAid - Please RT!]

A lot of poor people don’t have student loans...they have payday loans and medical debt, and an inflated car payment. They deserve to have their debt erased just like college grads.
