All NCAA athletes – including trans and nonbinary athletes – deserve to be safe, welcome and included in sports, and deserve to have their rights and well-being protected by the NCAA. Our full statement w/ @TheChrisMosier below ⬇️ https://t.co/a4wuuJbdFu
the Venezuela WNT statement about Kenneth Zseremeta translated into English, thread:
We, the players of the Venezuelan national team, have decided to break our silence to prevent the situations of abuse and harassment, physical, psychological and sexual caused by football coach
Because white women have historically failed in showing solidarity with women of color (esp. Black women), repeatedly hold up systems of oppression (capitalism, patriarchy, homophobia, transphobia) in protection of their own whiteness, and in general do not move the ball forward.
One thing I'm thinking about is how deeply homophobia runs through every piece of this abuse, from the Thorns to Riley. And homophobia was at the root of sooo much toxicity on the original Spirit team circa 2016.
In a league FULL of gay players.

(1/3)The league was informed of these allegations multiple times and refused multiple times to investigate the allegations. The league must accept responsibility for a process that failed to protect its own players from this abuse.
This is a must read for any fans of NWSL and women's soccer. Truly appalling lack of leadership.
❤️Love to the players coming forward and those that haven't.
Bounties on the heads of abortion patients.
Permitless concealed carry of guns.
Voters of color jumping through hoops to vote.
A power grid that leaves millions in the dark.
Texas Republicans are trying to take our state back to the dark ages. We must keep fighting back.
I’m thinking about the Black, brown, low-income, queer, and young folks in Texas. The folks this abortion health care ban will disproportionately harm.
Wealthy white folks will have the means to access abortion care. Our communities won’t.
Jürgen Klopp met with @LFC_LGBT this week to discuss the incident of homophobic chanting at Norwich City.
The pair discuss the impact of such chants on LGBT+ supporters, why they should not occur again, and the importance of inclusivity. #RedTogether
@LFC Disappointed this wasn’t a stronger statement. The individuals should be identified and banned from matches. Where are the consequences for discriminatory behavior?
It’s non-binary awareness day so here I am living this wild life outside of the gender binary. Secret to let y’all in on 👀 - the patriarchy doesn’t want you to know - nonbinary people are trying to free us all from gender constraints regardless of how you identify 🤯✨
