Seen on my news and academic feeds today:
"This is highly illegal!"
"Where are the courts?"
"Someone needs to arrest him/them!"
"The military needs to oust them!"
"WHERE ARE THE DEMS?"
This is the denial stage of grief. None of the above institutions are coming to save us.
We are all we've got.

There’s a difference between walking away from a group that continues to endanger our collective freedom from a fascist government, and walking away from the work. This quote displays the violence against those who do the former and choose instead, to work another way.

FIRST: The people in this article described as unwilling to navigate hard convos is ACTUALLY a multi-racial, issues diverse group who refuse to be complicit in policies that lead to jail time, denials of care, and family policing. www.whatsnext4mo.org

What's Next for Abortion in Missouri? Amendment 3 just made the road to reproductive freedom in Missouri more complicated and a lot longer, even for the privileged.

Hi!👋🏾 This vague post is for clarification purposes.
I have never walked away from tough strategy conversations. Never.
I have walked away when told to sacrifice ethics and my values. Zero regrets.
Happy to debate, but I don’t do spin and I don’t answer to white feminism.
Anyhoo, carry on …

Libraries & librarians have never been more important. If we care about the future, we must make sure every school, every community, every child has access to a library & a librarian. And we have to give them all our support, so they can do their vital work, which benefits us ALL! #SaveLibraries

🗣️ Personhood is NOT “a strategy to ban abortion.” It is a strategy to *redefine the relationship between pregnancy-capable bodies and the state*
And it is WORKING because Repro lawyers and advocates are so myopically focused on abortion!
