Barbie, you need to apologize to the Indigenous and Native communities and cut that unnecessary scene out the Blu-ray and streaming release.

33 years ago, the Americans with Disabilities Act #ADA was passed - marking a monumental step in ensuring accessibility, dignity and justice for all disabled people. We've still got progress to make & today we must continue the fight to ensure full equity. #ThanksToTheADA

Sad to hear of the passing of sister Shuhada Sadaqat, also known as Sinéad O'Connor. She was a tender soul, may God, Most Merciful, grant her everlasting peace. Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon - Verily we belong to God, and verily to Him do we return. 2:156

August 9th marks the International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples. A day to honor our unique cultures, communities, & heritage that have been a part of this world since time immemorial. It is our right to be proud of who we are and where we come from—we are still here!

This is the only poem for which I've ever received h*te-mail. But I'm going to keep sharing it and hoping it grows wings.

The Lāhainā wildfire was not a naturally recurring event. Like many of the climate catastrophes caused by capitalism and colonialism, this devastation is a byproduct of systematized efforts to eliminate sustainable life-ways. There’s nothing ‘natural’ about this disaster.

Support Tinu Abayomi-Paul aka Empress of Twerk. NO DMs --- in this poverty-hungry, judgmental, capitalist world, disabled people have a softer landing because of the work she's done. Give her your support before you're brought to reckon with how vital a role that is.

The City of Atlanta has leased stolen Muscogee land to build a massive police military facility in the Weelaunee Forest. Check out [copcityvote.com] and learn how you can support their efforts to put Cop City up for a vote on November’s ballot box.

"By exploring the ways body, mind, and cultures both clash...[this book] offers an often-overlooked perspective on climate-grief, interdependence, and resilience. Disabled people know how to adapt to a world that is ever changing without considering them." #DisabilityJustice

What I love about my Trans experience is that, like everyone else but way more obviously, we get to define for ourselves what it means to be a man, or a woman, or nonbinary, or gender expansive, etc. We pave the way for freedom from patriarchy - that's why they're afraid of us.

“Plantation disaster capitalism is unfortunately the perfect term for what's going on.” Law professor Kapuaʻala Sproat explains how large landed interests “are using this time of tremendous trauma for the people of Maui to swoop in and to get past the law.”

Penicillin, but no drug has anywhere NEAR the impact on human history as public health initiatives. Clean drinking water, sanitary disposal of human waste, vaccines, and food safety regulations have improved and lengthened vastly more lives than any surgery or medicine.

Here’s the official website for Nā ʻAikāne o Maui, a renowned cultural center in Lāhainā that the recent wildfire destroyed, including their vast and irreplaceable archive of documents and material culture. Please consider donating directly to them. naaikane.org

This is something I've been thinking about for a long time. And why we fight so much about history education. Americans tend to want one thing to focus on, like Tulsa. But the downside is this misrepresents the sheer scale and ubiquity of what we're talking about.

Continuing to wonder if the church 'blessing' isn't just the church finally recognizing what God has always been doing and acknowledging it. Like, whatever happened to 'you shall know them by their fruits'? Yeah, God's been blessing the world through these loves. Catch up.

The people who banned Black ppl from schools, jobs, military, & public spaces, banned Latino & Asian immigration, locked up Japanese Americans, broke hundreds of treaties with Native Americans—& are now banning teaching that history—want you to stop making everything about race😐
