I’m on a train right now & the number of women who have tears in their eyes, including myself, is something I’m going to remember for the rest of my life.

Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans.

@petersagal My heart hurts for so many today. Recalling the day I was chosen as the support person for a woman on my team who’s life could have ended if she had not had access to a safe abortion. I was proud to stand with her when no one else could and make she sure knew she wasn’t alone.

If you or a loved one are living with traumatic hair loss due to alopecia, cancer treatment or an autoimmune disease & have struggled financially to pay for a medical wig, myself & @McGovernMA want to fix this. Ask your Rep. to sign-on.

@thereportnbc @NBCNews @OARichardEngel @Quibi “For kids with special needs, remote learning isn’t a realistic option. The online experience can make the world harder to process.” As the mother of an adult special-needs child , I empathize with this completely.

[Claudine Wong @ClaudineKTVU]

Sometimes you get tired of turning the other cheek. And when bullies cross the line again and again they need to be called on it. Glad to stand with other female journalists here in the Bay Area as we say enough is enough.

Let me drop an alopecia selfie flex. Ya'll stay mad on my timeline. I get it. Who needs hair with these cheekbones? Folks want to know which bathroom I use. Obviously, the one where royalty enters. S/O to my Alopecia Squad, 7million strong. #alopeciaawarenessmonth

@IPPYmag @NPR "’For Black booksellers, it's exciting people wanting to grow their minds and spirits with this type of literature. But it's also disheartening to think there's such a large group of people in a a position not to have to educate themselves [before now]. That makes me sad.’”

Black bookstore owners: "swamped with orders...grateful for the business, especially as the pandemic had forced them to close their doors temporarily. But...heartbroken by the circumstances...and...wonder how long the surge in interest will last." https://t.co/RcBkMEQU5n via @npr

Man, there is nothing more beautiful than watching your child feel the joy of exploring what it means to be true to themselves. This is his journey, and I am here for it. I hope you all have the opportunity to feel the unquenchable love that I am feeling right now.
