when a person of color is denied a job because of "unprofessional hair," "rather than their skin color" despite their hair being culturally understood as a protective style for their hair type @SumruAtuk #colorblindracism

It has now been 10 weeks since 19 children and two teachers were killed in their Uvalde classrooms — yet Abbott still refuses to take any meaningful action to prevent another mass shooting.

He should call a Special Session today.

Take action, save lives, and keep our kids safe.

Abbott’s extremism is killing Texas women.

Today is the anniversary of the Stonewall riots, the reason Pride is in June.

In 1969, it was illegal to wear clothes that were considered inappropriate for one's sex and when the police raided the Stonewall Inn's gay bar, they started to do a genital check (as was procedure).

Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty of sex trafficking children. A judge refuses to release the list of who she sold them to. Now she is on suicide watch. Until the list is released, there’s only one conclusion.. all of them are on it.. every *Bill*ionaire, prince and politician.

I need a thread of every state/city protesting ASAP. Ima put every protest I see under here.

Today, the Supreme Court issued a ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey, undermining 50+ years of individual liberty, bodily autonomy, and gender equality rights.

We’ll be blunt – people will die because of this decision.

Married LGBTQ people: CALL A LAWYER.

Get copies of birth certificates and custody for your children on paper. Make sure life insurance policies, property that you own, bank account information, passwords for things, Powers of Attorney, etc. are all set up & understood

Please tell others that take these. We expect to add more than 1k more meds over the next 12 months, if not sooner.

Texas is big enough for everyone.

As governor, I'll expand civil rights protections for LGBTQ+ Texans, support trans kids, and fight to ensure that every person in this state can live freely as themselves and free from discrimination.

Today I interviewed an LGBT elder activist. I asked her how she felt about Pride month and she said, “It’s weird. Whenever I go to the Parade, I notice how few gay man in their 50s-70s are there. We lost so much of that generation and I feel that void every day.”
