Volunteer in Detroit metro area. Forever rooting out that which no longer serves myself/my vision of the world I want to live in. Opinions and views are my own. They may align with my volunteer gigs, but do not necessarily represent those orgs.
OMG, this headline makes me want to puke. Glad I ate a light breakfast.

Alice Walker's "In Search of Our Mothers' Gardens." Coming from an evangelical background, it was my introduction to feminist thought. I know now, it was, as she said, womanist thought. But then I didn't really understand the difference and it shaped my thinking. Grateful for that.

"Well that escalated quickly" 🤣🤣🤣. I can totally hear you saying that. If I'd been drinking anything, I would have choked.

Teen Vogue has had some of the most honest and best political reporting during both of Trump's terms. In a fascist state, this is how that kind of work is rewarded.

What struck me was the number of times Coates had to make the point that, for the Black community, this isn't the worst they've experienced. And it isn't the first time that a period of moving rights forward for nonwht/nonCIS/non-male ppl has been met with a backlash. That is important.

Thanks to the media AND a public education system that conservatives have been undercutting since The Brown Decision.
