Dear Kent Streeters, We are now living Everything. Everywhere. All at Once. Keep reading…. EVERYTHING. As I write this US bombs are raining down on Iran upon the orders of a man who has demonstrated over and over again that he does not believe himself to be constrained by the rule of law. Trump has shown…

Dear Kent Streeters, “There are means that cannot be excused. And I should like to be able to love my country and still love justice. I don’t want just any greatness for it, particularly a greatness born of blood and falsehood. I want to keep it alive by keeping justice alive.”  ~ Albert Camus These are words…

Dear Kent Streeters, I am still trying to figure out how best to balance being a grandmother with being an activist. I had every intention of getting Happenings done over the weekend, especially because there is so much going on this week at the State House. But it turned out celebrating my little one’s 1st…

Dear Kent Streeters, KSC Happenings will come to you in two parts this week. Part 1 highlights actions needing attention tonight or early tomorrow (Tuesday, May 27).

Mr Rayno begins by writing: First they came for the vaccine and the masks, and then they came…

May 5, 2025 Dear Kent Streeters, Sometimes organizing means pivoting on a dime…or in this case, pivoting because of rain! Lots of rain! That’s what’s in the forecast for tomorrow, May 6, when the Senate will be holding its public hearing on the state budget. We’ve been urging everyone to to attend the Fight for Our…

Dear Kent Streeters, We are nearly 100 days into the Trump regime: A 100-day assault on immigrants, on LGBTQ+ people, on federal workers, on unions. A 100-day assault on public health, social safety nets, the environment. A 100-day assault on our freedoms, our institutions, the economy, the rule of law. In his “Documenting the Damage:100 Harmful…

Dear Kent Streeters, If we needed proof that the GOP is on a mission to enact Project 2025 here in New Hampshire and move Trump’s fascist agenda forward, we need look no further than what happened at the State House this week. In putting forth their budget for a vote, the GOP majority not only…
