It's the Black Lives Matter At School Week of Action. To uplift stories that are unapologetic in celebrating Black characters, Social Justice Books compiled titles that "center Black joy, brilliance, history, resistance, and liberation." Which would you recommend? bookshop.org/lists/black-li…

I need cis women to understand that these trans bills WILL come for us. The language is gross overreach and government intervention of medical care. We’re not protected. This fight is all of ours. I don’t know what it will take for us to understand we’re all in this together.
