In this special episode of The Final Word, we take a step back to focus on what matters most: us. We dive into how we can take care of ourselves, our communities, and our collective resistance in the face of the ongoing chaos and cruelty of the MAGA agenda. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the constant noise, but we explore how self-care is not just important—it’s essential for sustaining our movement.

We talk about the power of community and how being allies to all marginalized groups strengthens us all. Whether it’s offering a kind word, showing up for protests, or simply listening and learning, we walk you through actionable steps to support each other and build a lasting coalition of resistance. Together, we can rise above the madness.

From unplugging from the constant media cycle to pursuing hobbies and embracing small acts of radical resistance, we share what we do to maintain our own peace and energy. As human rights lawyer Julian Aguon reminds us, "No offering is too small. No stone unneeded… All of us, without exception, are qualified to participate in the rescue of the world."

This episode is a call to action—and to rest. We remind you that rage can be a form of prayer, and hope isn’t passive—it’s something we actively nurture every day. Join us for this heart-centered discussion on staying righteous, staying engaged, and most importantly, staying human in the fight for justice.

Take care of yourselves, find your joy, and remember: Together, we will not let them win.

Listen now for a powerful reminder of why resistance is not just a fight, but a way of living.
