a shocking number of old-school american outlaws were intensely community-minded, and their reputations at the time were often very positive among the people. a big part of the reason their legacies are so negative is because the government was able to control the narrative after they died, focusing on the fact that the things they did were illegal, rather than on what they actually did.
Pretty Boy Floyd by Woody Guthrie tells stories about how Floyd would beg for meals at houses, and then leave like $1000 under his plate and shit.
New zine from Lena [formerly known on tumblr as transkafka]
“Sobriety has
helped my own awareness around the kitchen, not simply spatial
awareness but awareness of the logistics of the kitchen. Understanding
the logistics of production, the flow of production, the divisions of
labor, the (in)formal hierarchies among the kitchen provides a more
acute ability to attack the production process. Accurate assessment and
understanding of tactical capability is a threat to management, far more
than the faux-friendliness between coworkers sharing a bottle.”
Remember the Muslim group who started raising funds to help pay for funerals and medical expenses for the victims in Pittsburgh?? Well. They’re not done yet. Look at this
They have increased their goal several times and exceeded it within hours. HOURS!!
Here is their latest update
They’re asking you to please donate to their other fund, to help the victims of the shooting in Kentucky. These people are beyond amazing. They give me hope for the future and restore my faith in humanity.
They haven’t reached their goal with this one yet. If you’re feeling compelled to donate, please donate to the Kentucky fund. Because of everything else going on, it hasn’t gotten nearly as much attention. But these two peoples lives were just as important. They were just as loved and they will be just as missed.
And because they haven’t gotten as much attention and their stories aren’t in the news as much, here’s their story. From the fund raiser.
Please pass this around. If you can’t donate, someone who sees your reblog might.
Respond to evil with good.
It has been two and half hours since I posted this and the funds raised has increased by almost $2800 !!! This is amazing !! You are wonderful people for helping in any way you can.
Keep up the great work!!
PS: the fund for the Tree Of Life victims has raised an additional $11k in the past two and half hours as well. How amazing is that ?!
