Read instead the views of queer Muslims, many of whom find peace within the religion and the courage to do so without giving up their identities.

[CASW / ACTS @CASW_ACTS]

As social workers, we are appalled by policies and rhetoric across the country that attack the dignity of queer children and youth in schools.

We choose #FactsOverFear. We demand safe schools.

This hate has to stop…. #nospaceforhate

[Amy Smoke @amysmoke1]

This is what we're talking about at all the rallies, protests, and counter-protests.. just to be Indigenous, queer, and brown safely in my own community. 🤷🏽‍♀️😠🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🔥#NoSpaceForHate

[Sexual Assault Support Centre of WR @SASCWR]

SASC strongly opposes the 1 Million March for Children, which uses coded language to spread hate & anti-2SLGBTQIA+ views. Organizers of these protests have stated that they seek to eliminate the Sexual Orientation & Gender Identity (SOGI) curriculum & policies from schools. 1/7

Sharing my thoughts on the aftermath of the #UWaterloo stabbings. https://t.co/FBhCZBcRPN

[The 519 @The519]

On International Overdose Awareness Day, we'd like to say: the opposite of addiction is not sobriety. It’s connection. Stigma, and punishing people who use substances don’t work. People who use drugs are the same as all people: they desire connection, compassion, and belonging.

[Eva Salinas @eva_sita]

Awful, awful news out of Owen Sound. Sharif Rahman, the most kind man who ran The Curry House and was brutally attacked outside the restaurant last week, has died. Police still looking for 3 suspects. We should all be incensed. https://t.co/JvPNdblzQP

@Jessichutchison Congratulations!!!!!! So happy for you.
