Here’s a story that’s becoming all too common: federal immigration agents using racial and ethnic profiling as a rationale for stopping, questioning and detaining U.S. citizens who they suspect are undocumented.

I am horrified but not surprised that soulless vultures are using an unspeakable school shooting to attack the transgender community. I feel it’s important to stand strongly in support of the many many wonderful transgender people I am lucky to know, and denounce this false outrage.

If you care about the freedom to read, then the number one place you should be focused is on your local politics. When fascism goes federal, we go local. Banned Books Week this year is October 5-11. Here are some events/actions you can start planning now to make the week truly impactful

I’m fine with politicians who are good at riling up the people I don’t like, but if they don’t support trans people, I won’t support them at the ballot box.
