Chicago Mayor #HaroldWashington who died on this day in 1987 while in office was pivotal for #LGBTQ Chicagoans
Mayor Harold Washington flung the doors open for Chicago’s LGBTQ community — Gerald Fariñas y Cacáy
While his impact on the Black and Latino communities is well documented, we often overlook how fundamentally he altered life for Chicago's LGBTQ community.

Explaining why taking down their statues and renaming places and things are so hurtful to them

The idolatry of Christian nationalism
They created a story of themselves as biblically chosen people and attacking their leaders is akin to attacking God.

Christ is king. But which crown does He wear. Certainly not a bejeweled gold imperial crown. It was the crown with which He died. It was fashioned by his jailers of twisted dried branches with thorns. It was a crown forcing him into humility. Yet, He reigns

Classic xenophobia and scapegoating outsiders. From every dictatorship’s playbook
Homeland Security says immigrants are reason for higher food, healthcare costs
It’s a scapegoating tale as old as time.

Let’s talk about #mentalhealth and the toxic claims in some cultures that getting help and medication is a sign of weakness

#anxiety #depression
Anxiety, depression can’t be faked. Saying you’re okay all the time can be faked
Get help. Contrary to what your culture might say, medicine works.
