Digesting results of the election here's some writing I found useful from Margaret Killjoy - "I can't tell you things are fine. I can't tell you that hard times aren't coming. I can't tell you that hard times aren't already here. Things can always get worse. That seems like, more or less, a constant in this universe: things can always get worse. The thing is, though, things can always get better too. We can make things get better." Much more at https://margaretkilljoy.substack.com/p/the-sky-is-falling-weve-got-this

SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center, in downtown Santa Cruz, CA which is the unceded homelands of the Awaswas-speaking Ohlone people known as the Uypi, who stewarded these lands since time immemorial. Centuries of colonial violence led to the removal and displacement of the Uypi. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
