“When the (prison) system sees that someone is being cared for, that there are people checking in and mailing letters, they’re less likely to pull stuff with them,” Zumana Noor said. “They know there are people on the outside who will speak up.”

This is high art

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

Hi new followers!

A bit about us. We're a historically volunteer-led team.

Right now we're working on hiring our first staffers to support the urgent, increasing need for ACCURATE journalism on trans communities — and the trans journalists who are often producing that work.

Nothing here to see but some Black women working in film & TV and some JOY.
