Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.

A total of 29 states have banned trans girls and women from K-12 through college from participating on women’s sports teams.
Today's Supreme Court case could either aid or devastate trans people’s ability to fight back in court against this discrimination.

This describes my family — at least the one I’m related to. But life teaches you that real family is anyone who shows up, stands with you, and loves you through every season.

The fastest way to know if something will work for you is to try it. Learn to proceed without confidence. Life doesn't come with a trail period, GPS or step-by-step guide for becoming who you are meant to be. Everyday you're writing a story without knowing the ending. 1/2
