Do not obey in advance. Do not preemptively bend the knee in order to prevent unpleasant feelings. Build and support community, help your neighbors, use whatever privilege you have in your arsenal as a tool to help those with less visibility and privilege. Be a good human, not a compliant one.

At this pivotal moment, we honor his legacy by fighting injustice in all its forms, with everything we've got.

My @scishow.bsky.social buddies will appreciate this one.

We know today is a heavy day for many in our community.

Just know, you are not alone. We are not going anywhere. We are in this together. hrc.org/faq
