A very special thanks to Alex Fresonke, Tracy Barchet, TJ Gillette, Gene Patterson, Liz Hickox, Dan Burczynski, Stephen Hum, Cherise Haase and Chris Abernatha for their time and efforts! Our team helped with organizing the quiet and art room, washing windows, cleaning the garden bed, tarp and mulching the flower area and cleaning around the building of unwanted weeds and brush.

Thanks for the insights @justicefunders. Acknowledging the stolen native lands we are on, is the beginning of the beginning of a processs to imagine pathways to repair and rejuvenation. I think incoporating the payments to a Land Trust into overhead admin costs is an excellent idea and way to systematize and normalize the giving to land trusts in our work… as part of the beginning of the beginning.

In this recently published personal story, Tara Brown, Board Treasurer and former Executive Director of Hidden Leaf Foundation, shares how the ask to pay honor taxes (such as Shuumi) stirred her to consider the decades of impact her ancestors have had on this land in the Bay Area, the original land of the Ohlone people. “This part of my family lineage exploration has been about awkward truth-telling, finding our relatedness even in its discomfort, and remembering who we are and how we belong.” Read or listen to Tara Brown’s story below. Thank you for organizing us, Justice Funders!

You know that saying "Everything's bigger in Texas"? Well, that's a true statement, but the only thing bigger than Texas is the Texan-State pride. Texas might just be my favorite example of a successful #lovemark, I mean how many other States do you know that offer waffles shaped like the State itself? You can read all about it in my recent blog with TEDxUTAustin: "Texas-sized waffles, beavers and everything in between." https://lnkd.in/gGXmvT9R

It's clear that Organized Retail Crime (ORC) presents a significant challenge in the retail industry. Collaborations like the one between Sam B. and retail giants like Target are pivotal in enhancing safety and security within the community. The transformation we seek can only be achieved through the joint efforts of local agencies and businesses and being proactive in our approach. Ultimately, it's essential to recognize that the same individuals who vote in local elections are also the consumers of these retail establishments. This underscores the importance of fostering a mutually supportive relationship between the community and businesses. By working together and taking proactive measures, we can pave the way for a brighter and more secure future for everyone.
An enormous shout out to Bernaillo County DA Sam B. for visiting one of our stores in Albuquerque to talk ORC. He and his team are leading the way in tackling this issue and making Albuquerque safer for everyone!
