Literally no group sexually assaults children more than straight Christian men in positions of authority. And they’re the ones creating a mob in a frenzy attacking drag queens. And some of you are falling for it.

“Autism and most mental health disorders present differently in Black women,” said Bria Hubert. “Because autism is looked at through such a White and male lens, people don’t recognize similar behaviors with traditionally feminine or Black interests.” 19thnews.org/2023/06/black-w…

This is such a terrible tragedy and it unfortunately supports some very damning data. Black women are 3x more likely to die in childbirth than their white peers, and while economic disparities are an issue, it is public health crisis largely created by the fact Black women are often mistreated in the health care industry.
The U.S. Olympic track star Tori Bowie died during childbirth in May, according to an autopsy report shared with The New York Times. The autopsy lists respiratory distress and eclampsia as possible complications. nyti.ms/3Prrijp

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

The "not all white people" white people need to hear it, too, too, in order to remind them that ➡️IT IS THEIR SPECIFIC JOB AS WHITE PEOPLE⬅️ to push back against the white supremacist behavioral norm of their peers. Don't pull yourself out of the mix for your personal comfort.

Mexico is cheap to the American gentrifiers because they earn money in dollars and pay in pesos, but the cost of living is becoming unmanageable for locals because of these digital nomads. The stories I hear about how gringos are essentially colonizing Mexico City are outrageous.

I have had my well tested twice by NS and both times I have been told the water here is “safe for consumption”. This is our water. We paid nearly $5k to get the filter recommended by the NS toxicologist. The NS assistance center refused to reimburse me today. #EastPalestine

Just heard an Ohio Republican on the livestream take a strong stand against outlawing slavery and didn't see who it was. Anyone?

Please stop using “third world countries” to describe nations that are struggling in large part due to the trauma and generational impact of white supremacy, imperialism, and colonialism. Let’s not use the phrase, period.

My family is not safe. My son has been taken on the gov's orders, and I've had to send my husband and daughter out of state for their safety. THIS is the reality of living in DeSantis' Florida. There is no freedom here. Only retaliatory rule by a fascist who wishes to be king

Jones' son was turned into police after a warrant was issued for repeated threats to perform a school shooting in text messages with friends, including: "I want to shoot up the school." "If I get a gun I’m gonna shoot up hnms lol." archive.ph/2023.04.06-185…

This an image you haven't seen today because mainstream media has been covering Donald Trump's motorcade & plane all day long. These are Nashville students walking out today, sick and tired of the NRA and Republican inaction. The youth WILL save us, once again.
