New — I spoke to eight trans people in Kansas about the new state law that invalidated their driver’s licenses overnight, what’s it’s like to live there right now, plus details of two DMV emails exclusively obtained by The Handbasket that shed light on the law’s chaotic and cruel rollout:

Don't be fooled by this bill's name-- this is a book banning bill that will exclude LGBTQ books from all public schools NATIONWIDE.

Call your congresspeople and tell them to VOTE NO on this nakedly bigoted book banning bullshit.

Black and white photo of Porter seated at a desk in front of a row of bookshelves and a card catalog. She is a Black woman with shoulder length wavy hair. She is wearing a dark dress with white accents, and is reading a book which is open on her desk.

Dorothy Porter was a librarian at Howard University where she took a small collection of donated materials by and about Black Americans and curated it for 40 years into the 180,000 item Moorland-Spingarn Research Center. #BlackHistoryMonth
