"Don't Say Period": Now Florida wants to ban students from discussing mensuration via Salon bit.ly/43qPmYb

Republicans’ “Don’t Say Period” bill can’t stop the menstrual wave. salon.com/2023/04/11/don…

Further evidence of GOP's misogyny and sadism: They don't want girls to learn about their periods. Think about how traumatizing it would be to start bleeding out your vagina without knowing why. That's what Republicans want for girls. salon.com/2023/04/11/don…

And before you say "that's the parents' job," know this: Not everyone has a good parent who talks to them about this stuff. And even good parents aren't necessarily skilled at this. My mom tried, but still managed to scare me during the "period" talk salon.com/2023/04/11/don…

YES!

Menstruation is normal. Censoring discussion of it is not. salon.com/2023/04/11/don…

So excited for this writing workshop on Thursday in D.C. through the DC Public Library 🖤! Info here! dclibrary.libnet.info/event/8232663

Very excited to see these DC Public Library events on menstrual education. I was proud to pass legislation to mandate that all schools and gov’t buildings (including libraries!) provide free period products to visitors. It’s past time that we take the stigma out of menstruation.

See you in D.C. tomorrow for the last Our Red Book reading! 2-4 pm at the DC Public Library Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Central Library. It's going to be beautiful! And presented alongside a community wellbeing fair. dclibrary.libnet.info/event/8234773

The Zero Waste Act is a testament to our collective power and unwavering commitment to sustainability. It’s critical that NYC moves from the linear model of extraction, production, disposal, and embraces a circular economy that values regeneration, sustainability, and justice.

This is one of my favorite books ever. Check it out if you haven’t young theatre freaks.

There’s so much stigma and misinformation around periods. This hour, three Connecticut-based contributors featured in Rachel Kauder Nalebuff’s “Our Red Book” join us, breaking down this bloody topic. Listen via Connecticut Public ctpublic.org/show/where-we-…

More soon, but a huge thank you to 53rd State Press's editor Kate Kremer, my comrade in arms 3 Hole Press's Rachel Kauder Nalebuff, & the TCG Books team. Indie shouldn't mean isolated, and as theatre and publishing communities we can work together to find sustainable futures for all of us.

Thank you so much to the American Library Association for including Our Red Book on the 2024 Rise: A Feminist Book Project List!!
