”My days working for the City of San Antonio’s homeless outreach division were spent navigating the epicenter of converging crises—historical and structural racism, the War on Drugs, and late stage capitalism.”
Il y a 3 semaines aujourd'hui débutait notre voyage au Texas pour l'observation de l'éclipse de soleil. Je vais faire un pouet par jour et sélectionner 4 photos pour chaque jour (ça va être difficile !)
Jour 1 Vendredi 5 Avril : Paris - Houston. Nous sommes arrivés à Houston en début d'après-midi, ce qui nous a permis de faire un tour de ville, principalement avec notre bus. Le voyage était organisé, nous étions un groupe de 33 personnes, tous très sympa ! Nous n'avons pas trouvé d'intérêt particulier à la ville.
Jour 3, Dimanche 7 Avril : Visite de San Antonio. Le "River Walk" au centre ville est très agréable, bien que surchargé de monde à la veille de l'éclipse. Sur les routes, des panneaux avertissent de "Arriver tôt, rester sur place, repartir tard". Ils s'attendaient à des embouteillages monstres le lendemain.
Nous sommes passés devant Fort Alamo sans y entrer.
On the latest episode of #ThisIsAmerica, we speak with friends of #AaronBushnell in #SanAntonio, #Texas about their friend and what media narratives got wrong. We also speak with an anarchist from #Montreal about the ongoing history of resistance in #Haiti, colonialism, and much more.
From Palestinian food to punk rock music, San Antonio residents gathered to support needy people who live a continent away ... from Interim Editor-in-Chief Gus Bova: https://www.texasobserver.org/puro-pinche-palestina/
We (wife and myself) are headed to San Antonio, TX for a long weekend in a couple of weeks. Any locals here have suggestions for non-obvious things to do, restaurants, bars that we should not miss? Assume I've done my research and know about The Alamo, etc. I'm looking for things most visitors would never find on their own. #SanAntonio#Travel
“Our city always was known for standing for human rights and for progressive values. We need our leaders to stand with us and [against] these horrific crimes that happen to our community.”
Activists in Austin, #Dallas, #Houston and more are pushing for their cities to support a #ceasefire:
“Our city always was known for standing for human rights and for progressive values,” said Hatem Natsheh, a member of the recently formed #Austin for #Palestine Coalition and longtime local activist who was born in Palestine’s West Bank. “We need our leaders to stand with us and [against] these horrific crimes that happen to our community.”
‘“Here in San Antonio, if you actually went and tested all of the people, you would find that probably one in every two individuals over the age of 40 has diabetes,” Dr. DeFronzo said.’
#FuckCars folks in #Texas needed to provide online public comment on plans to double the number of lanes on US 54 between Stratford and the Oklahoma state line.
