#resistance
"Across disciplines, people are building tools, stories, and systems that meet real needs, create shared meaning, and offer continuity in moments of uncertainty.
These efforts don’t always call themselves political, but they shape culture by demonstrating what’s possible and by helping people imagine how life could be organized differently."

“Israeli soldiers fired nearly a thousand bullets during the massacre of 15 Palestinian aid workers in southern Gaza on March 23, 2025—with at least eight shots fired at point blank range—according to a joint investigation by the independent research groups #Earshot and #ForensicArchitecture. The report, based on eyewitness testimony and audio and visual analysis, shows that a number of aid workers were executed and that at least one was shot from as close as one meter away”

"'The thought of holding thousands of families in massive warehouses should challenge the conscience of every American,' said Bishop Brendan Cahill of Victoria, Texas, chairman of the bishops' Committee on Migration."

"The protests were everywhere. They were loud and righteous and relentless. They were also only one piece of what the resistance here really looks like, of the story of a city banding together to protect the community it holds dear."

"Resistance is happening in a thousand ways from people destroying Flock cameras to judges upholding the Constitution to the pope once again spurning JD Vance's advances. Resistance in solidarity with immigrants and others under attack, resistance against surveillance, cruelty, lawlessness."

"If these are not attacks upon the stranger among us, what is? ...And they would succeed, were it not for the many among us1 who have not only read the Scripture, but who live the Scripture, those who refuse to abandon the stranger."
And she points to this statement issued by the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, reported by Camillo Barone:

Solnit also points to what Mayor Zohran Mamdani said at the NYC prayer breakfast last Sunday:
"Today, my friends, I want to reflect on [Deuteronomy 10:17-18], loving the stranger. Across this country, day after day, we bear witness to cruelty that staggers the conscience. People ripped from their cars, guns drawn against the unarmed, families torn apart, lives shattered, quietly, swiftly, brutally."

"There were candlelight vigils on nearly every corner we passed, some corners with four or five people cupping tiny flames, some corners with 50 neighbors milling about, communing, singing, stoking a firepit hauled to the sidewalk, lighting up the little Weber grill, just hanging out in the frozen dark."

Solnit offers a roundup of accounts of resistance, including the following from Will McGrath:
"What they don’t often tell you is how beautiful the resistance can be. In the evening, on the day that Alex Pretti, an I.C.U. nurse, was shot to death by federal agents in front of Glam Doll Donuts, my wife and I drove through Minneapolis."

"Even Olympic athletes spoke up against the Administration's policies this week ("I feel heartbroken about what's happening in the United States," said freestyle skier Chris Lillis at an Olympics press conference. 'I think as a country we need to focus on respecting everybody's rights.' So did a lot of other people. There's just so much going on, some of it encouraging."
