**Check this week’s ”**LINKS we should talk about**”** for what I’ve been enjoying and thinking about this week.
On today’s agenda:
\* The Swoletariat, Intros and why they love Arizona
\* When the mainstream opinion swung towards Abolish ICE and what happens to the agents if we WERE to “abolish ICE” or “defund the police”
\* Why are you like this? (why they got into their activism?)
Because you don’t want to feel like you are losing your mind and because we long for a better world filled with fun, love, joy, and cool shit. This is ***What Should We Talk About? With Jenny Yang at*** *jennyyang.substack.com*
