I think #sachat leftists would be interested in this incredible guide. Obviously a lot of it is specific to Carnegie Mellon and Pittsburgh, but I imagine the wide array of topics could be interesting to your campuses and students.

[CMU Against ICE @cmuwontbuildit]

We are so excited to present our 2020 Disorientation Guide!

This guide is not comprehensive, but is meant to be a starting point for students in figuring out the CMU and Pittsburgh communities.

A lot of the gender/sexuality 101s I see are... like... REALLY 101. This one is fresh, really focusing on fluidity. It centers asexual and bi/pan identities. It centers transness, and how your identity can change based on a loved one's changes, not your own. So smart.
