#breaking As we all are hearing the news about murderer Kyle Rittenhouse getting off scot-free, allow yourselves time to grieve and reach out to your comrades. Remember the victims: Joseph Rosenbaum, and Anthony Huber, and wounding Gaige Grosskreutz. Remember that one person was saved because a person at the scene had basic medical training and was able to help immediately. Find resources near you to get Stop the Bleed and first aid training. If you have more resources help pay for others to learn the skills. They aren't going to stop trying to intimidate us, and we are not going to stop banding together in love and solidarity to speak out against injustice.
Your heart is a muscle the size of your fist. Keep loving, keep fighting.
