Social and labour movements and indigenous groups are organizing self-determined alternatives.
Halloween party idea - If you are having a Halloween party you can test out face makeup to avoid facial recognition. I thought people may like this as an activity for a party --
Watch a few videos, apply the face makeup and then use free software to see if you are recognized.

EVERY 7 HOURS COPS KILL AN AMERICAN CITIZEN
Immigration activist Bryan MacCormack explains how he stopped Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers from arresting two undocumented immigrants in his car. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JNNfdhlI7MI
The thing to notice is how the ICE men try to trick him with a bogus warrant... How many people would see that one?

If you want to seriously change inequality there is a small thing you can do. Support a small southern US black owned coop so they can pasteurize their awesome pecan milk to have a longer shelf life so they can ship it. https://pecanmilk.com/ This coop must survive but they are in a catch-22 where they do not make enough to qualify for a loan. Their product is so good that it will be a sustainable coop venture. Without us they have no real way out. Ideas are welcomed.
New Hampshire. Border Patrol checkpoints. This is from last year. When I went to Montreal 2 years ago they wanted me to say I was a journalist and asked several times. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ML1_rCrKn_E
COPS NOT SAFE?
I got a phone call from a man saying "I am Officer Mike Williams will you donate to the police benevolent society because... Police do not feel SAFE.
I asked him, when do they not feel safe, before or after they shoot me?
He said I can go to the website for more info and hung up before I could ask him to repeat the URL. I called the number back and was greeted with a recording saying "You have reached the political campaign office, no one is here right now, call back later"
I suspect that Reality TV shows have not only made voyeurism more acceptable but they also make video surveillance a mode of entertainment. Watching people in their homes is not just acceptable but highly desired. Now people pay a monthly fee to have their private lives streamed.
