Hey y'all, it's almost U.S. primary election season so here's your reminder to check and make sure if you're registered to vote!
If you want to see an impactful change, these elections are just as, if not more important, than the ones in November so get out there and vote!

Over the last 365 days, Trump has consistently attacked the LGBTQI+ community—and, in particular, the trans community.
In all that time, he hasn't taken a single step to solve any ACTUAL problems facing Americans, like sky-high costs of living.
Americans deserve better.

BREAKING: The EEOC just voted to rescind its guidance on unlawful workplace harassment.
The EEOC exists to protect workers—including LGBTQI+ people, women, people of color, and other minorities— from harassment & discrimination. Under Trump, EEOC is abandoning this mission.

If you’re feeling hopeless right now, the answer is to get involved in direct action.
It’s hard to think things can get better if you’re primarily waiting for *other* people to take action. But if you’re seeing the benefits of everything you’re doing? There’s hope everywhere.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Books from African authors and authors of African descent to look forward to in 2026
It’s going to be another banner year (in the words of lying African governments, a “bumper harvest”) for books from authors on the Continent and in its Diaspora! Here’s your list, sorted by month, with all kinds of genres included (including children’s books, at the end of the post). There’s no way I could list every book that’s coming, but here’s what I think is notable—as always, a work in progress, subject to updates.
