Worked on some signs for Saturday. A couple were touch ups. I wanted my #BLM sign to reflect the mural that was erased, and my #ResistFascism sign to be a bit more to the point. The #MainePride sign involved a sticker and some spray painted pine trees. I liked the way it came out.
#NationalDayofAction #April5th #HandsOff2025 #MaineResists

A sign with a black background, stenciled green pine trees, and an outline of the state of Maine with the inclusive Pride flag overlayed (White, pink, light blue, brown and black stripes at an angle, and red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple rainbow stripes off to the side).

A sign that reads:
"BLACK
LIVES
MATTER"
in yellow letters against a black background.

A sign that reads:
"RESIST
FASCISM"
The background is white, the letters are mostly black, but the S's in "Fascism" are red, and shaped like Nazi "SS" symbols (co-opted from runes).

3 lone employees at Yaquina Head Lighthouse on #Oregon coast outside Newport offered their #Federal #BLM jobs back after outcry prompted judicial action to reinstate workers. Two of the ousted employees have accepted the offer one employee declined.

As a white male, I have a difficult time grasping
the devotion of either African Americans or
Native Americans to Christianity. To me, it
seems like Christianity is a slap in the face (to
say it mildly) of both races; as Christianity was
introduced into the African culture at the
expense of human trafficking, torture, murder,
and slavery; and was introduced into the Native
American culture by way of conquest, torture,
murder, and slavery. The Native American
Christian is practicing the faith of those who
tried to wipe his ancestors off the map, and the
African American Christian is practicing the
faith of those who captured, bought, cruelly
transported, sold, and enslaved their ancestors.
I just don't understand.....
