Jeff Balk’s resignation is a necessary step forward, but it’s disappointing that it took public scandal for accountability. His statement doesn’t fully reckon with the harm or what real accountability requires of us. We must center survivors and do what’s right proactively, not reactively. #NetDe

I don't know that I ever thought I'd see a cis politician say Sylvia and Marsha's names, let alone one advocate for continuting the work they were part of. Thank you, Zohran, maybe a world that doesn't want us dead is possible?
UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

“We are under invasion from within, no different than a foreign enemy, but worse—they don’t wear a uniform.”
This is the President of the United States, who ordered the entire leadership of our military to sit and listen to him, speaking a few minutes ago.

There has been a rush among centrists like Gavin Newsom and Ezra Klein to brush over the hateful life of Charlie Kirk and valorize the man.
Let me be clear, killing Charlie Kirk was wrong and abhorrent.
We must condemn murder without sanitizing a man who built his empire on hate.

We Must Not Posthumously Sanitize Charlie Kirk's Hateful Life
Influential anti-LGBTQ+ activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated on Wednesday. While condemning violence is something most can get behind, sanitization of his hate has gone too far.
