I usually try to let my work speak for itself but apparently this needs to be said explicitly. I have interviewed women fighting for the right to wear their hijab in Quebec. I have interviewed women fighting for their right to remove their hijab in Iran.. 1/2

There's a whole genre of intellectually lazy media criticism that seems actively resistant towards the idea that things in media can be symbolic and that engaging with those things on a literal level is failing to properly engage with the media.

One of the things that continually stun-locks me on this website is when people are 'critiquing' media and start calling things "deep" as a pejorative when 1) depth and richness are good things! 2) the thing they're critiquing is as deep as a puddle

Hope is not optimism, which expects things to turn out well, but something rooted in the conviction that there is good worth working for.

I love when you get to the part in the book where the author's like "I had to learn about airplane mechanics, and now so do you"

There should be a rule that every time conservatives vote against a program or plan that will help others, the thing they don’t want others to have should be removed from their own benefits package.

D&D has been one of the most enjoyable extracurricular activities I've ever run: there's always a lot of interest (especially from kids who may not sign up for other activities) and it's great to develop fun, fantasy adventures.

Here is a clip of Lizzo playing a 200-year-old flute in the library of congress. A beautiful performance from a well-trained musician. The outrage from certain people is just a symptom of their ideology. (Every time you share this it makes a right-wing talking head cry.)

Hold your children close. Pray a prayer of thanks they’re not in threat of being stolen from the government & sent to imprisoned houses of horrors. That u can mold them, hold them & raise them in their 1st language & culture in love. Pray 4 the ones who never had the chance 🧡

Let me jig around the house with my baby. Let him be free from the ways his ancestors were seen as less than human. Let him be kind, joyful, and thoughtful.

What I hate about Truth & Reconciliation Day is how the government and politicians, who have power to make real change, have encouraged everyday Canadians to think reconciliation is achieved through individual capitalist consumption. Buying orange shirts and donuts, for example.

Anyway I hope that there are residential school survivors who appreciate this day. And I appreciate settlers doing their best to learn about & support Indigenous people in their community & the country in general. I hope together we can pressure politicians to do the right thing.

Honoured to dance the Orange Shirt in with Sherry Starr at today’s pow-wow in honour of Residential School Survivors and the children who never came home. Grand Entry felt powerful today. 🧡✊🏽

Orange Shirt Day is for families 🧡 Families separated, families lost & families who’ve overcome. My family. Your family. All our relations. Honouring Residential School Survivors. Happy to spend the Day for Truth & Reconciliation with my family—ingodoode—& my work family too

Being able to bear children is not a good measure of womanhood. We know this: many women cannot reproduce for any number of reasons. Yet we still keep coming back to this tired, limited definition. Can we do better, please?

I am not a big fan of being treated like a student in PD. Yes, you're modeling fancy engagement strategies. But also I can see the Matrix.
