An internal government database revealed the Trump administration's ​effort to revise or remove information on African-American history, LGBT rights, ​climate change and other topics at hundreds of national park ⁠sites.

The U.S. Interior Department said a database revealing how President Donald Trump's administration planned to revise information on key phases of ​American history at national park sites was deliberative and the employees ‌who released it "will be held accountable."

The Blackstone Valley Emergency Shelter urgently needs overnight volunteers TONIGHT and all of next week. Shifts are 5 hours. I volunteered during last weekend's snowstorm—it's mostly just being present while people sleep. You can read, work on your laptop, or chat with other volunteers.

The shelter operates from St. Patrick's Church basement in Whitinsville when temperatures drop below freezing or during severe weather. Clients—sometimes families with children—stay in private rooms while volunteers remain in the common space.

Without two volunteers, the shelter can't open. That means families sleep in their cars.

If you can, sign up here and they will be in touch: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0F49ABAE2CA5F58-53717259-volunteer/151044012 #/

If you can't volunteer, please spread the word so others can potentially help.

Thanks!

The winter shelter is located at: St. Patrick's Church Parish Center (basement entrance) ~ East Street - Whitinsville, MA *Use the walkway that leads to the side entrance of the church on East Street. Proceed straight ahead to the basement entrance door which is the entrance to the parish center.

A statewide effort called “ICE Out of Minnesota: Day of Truth and Freedom” is encouraging people not to work, go to school, or shop on Jan. 23 in protest of federal immigration enforcement actions. Many businesses, unions, and community groups have pledged closures or reduced operations in solidarity with that strike and related demonstrations.

Hey all, the local Blackstone Valley Emergency Shelter put out an SOS for overnight volunteer help. It will be freezing this weekend and there are families with small children staying there who need support. There are also short laundry shifts available, and slots for every day, not just weekend. Help if you can!

One of the quietest forms of harm isn't loud or dramatic — it's the mindset of "if it doesn't affect me, it's not my problem."

When we ignore discrimination, dismiss someone's struggle, or stay silent because an issue doesn't touch our lives, we leave the people affected to fight alone. A society built on selective compassion will collapse under the weight of its own indifference.

Real community means caring when it's inconvenient. It means stop asking "Does this affect me?" and starting asking "Does this affect us?"

It always does.
