He’s looking to change that for others. https://t.co/x2wbLMyl6O

https://t.co/STnuTuVV8r Over 20 years ago, Gloria Wheeler made a haven for jazz and blues at the Brass Room. Said to be a “silent humanitarian,” she's part of Lafayette's history. She was also the first Black court administrator for Lafayette City Court.

Supporters of the amendment say its rejection should not be interpreted as how people in Louisiana feel about slavery, involuntary servitude or forced labor.

So let's do a Louisiana Creole heritage languages thread! Our heritage languages are Louisiana French, Louisiana Creole aka "Kourivini" and Louisiana Spanish (although Spanish was spoken by Creoles to a much lesser extent).

If you want to show your gratitude or support for the trans activists across Louisiana who worked to defeat SB 156, there is a fund for self-care and rest you can donate to! https://t.co/eDm6leK9He #lalege #lagov

#lalege - we told y'all. If you pass this law, ALL girls, not just trans girls, will be at risk of being targeted by opposing teams' coaches, players, and parents. Is this kind of witch hunt really what you want? This is just pure ugliness.

Every day we do nothing is another day hotter, another day with worse storms and droughts, another day with broken power grids, another day with needless deaths. This is a crisis; we have to treat it like one.

Gov. Edwards' statement on his veto of Senate Bill 156, which sought to prevent transgender girls and women from participating on athletic teams or in sporting events designated for girls or women at elementary, secondary and postsecondary schools. #lagov #lalege

@DylanMercury @PeytonRose22 🥺❤️ We love you Dyl!!! I’m so grateful for your continued support and guidance. I wouldn’t be half the person I am today without you.

[Elliot Wade @ElliotWade100]

@Justinhartley23 Hell yes!! Congratulations!! 💖💖💖

[Francis Dylan Waguespack @DylanMercury]

This is the kind of violence being promoted by the new law in Tennessee forcing businesses to add signage to their restrooms if they allow trans people to use them as a “warning” to everyone else.

[Elliot Wade @ElliotWade100]

Y'all just don't know the *literal* blood, sweat, and tears I've put into this university and this work. I'm glad to see the fruits of my labor 💪🏾💯 #ULL #GeauxCajuns #TransRightsAreHumanRights
