“If you’re not on the right side of this fight, and advocating fiercely for equal pay...across every intersectional boundary — then I just straight-up feel bad for you. Because you’re sad, and wrong, and going down.” https://t.co/4YjuQqwE1N

If you think authoritarianism cannot happen here in America, I lived through a time when it already did: to 120,000 Japanese Americans, most of us citizens. It starts by dehumanizing a group, then spreads through fear, ignorance and hate. Recognize the patterns. Remember history.

June is #PRIDEMONTH!

No matter where you fall on the gender or sexuality spectrum, you are celebrated! Your feelings are real. Your identity is valid. YOU are loved and accepted just as you are. Be proud.

RT to show your support.

After Hurricane Maria, Trump kept saying that “We have done a great job in Puerto Rico.”

The longest blackout in U.S. history.

Over 4,600 people dead.

One of the deadliest natural disasters in U.S. history

This is not a great job. It’s an absolute disaster.

ICE has separated 658 children from their parents in just the first 13 days of their new policy. That’s an average of 50 children everyday, as young as 18 months old, who are being forcibly ripped from their parents and sent to far-away detention centers. #EndFamilySeparation

Calling people animals is sinful. Every human being has infinite dignity. Moreover, this is the same kind of language that led to the extermination of Jews ("vermin") in Germany and of Tutsi ("cockroaches") in Rwanda. This kind of language cannot be normalized. It is a grave sin. https://t.co/5VvURONwvh

Thank you for fighting to stay.
Thank you for helping others see that we need them here.
Thank you for refusing to let stigma win.

Can you name all 59 women who came forward against Cosby? Can you name half of them? Can you name 5? Would you recognize them out of context? Do you want an autograph?

Cool so we agree that women don’t make rape accusations to become famous.

45,000 people die by suicide every year in America. That’s 45,000 devastated families & hundreds of thousands of friends sent to mourning. It doesn’t have to be this way. We can save lives by funding research & by making mental health care more accessible. #RallyToPreventSuicide

On this #EarthDay, spend some time outside and reconnect with nature. Our spectacular planet gives us so much, let’s give back. https://t.co/fOrLhWXDRf
