My VE Day was nothing like our image of it today. I hope we can honour what it really meant | Sheila Hancock
Our street party tea was a muted celebration, full of uncertainty. Then, as now, we faced a long struggle towards a better world, says actor and writer Sheila Hancock
Read this by Sheila Hancock on VE Day:
βBecause I now deeply fear the dangerous signs of history repeating itself, I want everyone to remember that war is terrible. On VE Day 1945, the world was looking at the complete destruction of many cities, some by us.β

Black background with white text reading βa remind: one third of trans people have faced homelessness in their life time. 29% of trans people currently live in poverty in the U.K.βBelow this is blue text reading βWhilst celebrating our success and history is nice, the reality is a lot of us are struggling and the political landscape is terrifying - use today to learn what your local community needs and put actions in place to meet them.β [end alt]
Happy trans day of visibility, please support your local transition funds, grass roots programs and listen to your local community!

The Stonewall Inn and The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative are outraged and appalled by the recent removal of the word 'transgender' from the Stonewall National Monument page on the National Park Service website. This blatant act of erasure not only distorts the truth of our history, but it also dishonors the immense contributions of transgender individuals - especially transgender women of color - who were at the forefront of the Stonewall Riots and the broader fight for LGBTQ+ rights.

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

Butch as a specifically lesbian identity means a lot to me! It gives me a place to celebrate my queerness, words to explain my experiences and is full of joy and I genuinely want to see more butches in media and in academia and politics and visible in my life

I know everybody wants to punch nazis but if you're behind that sentiment then also please do the less dramatic/exciting work of supporting your local communities. Drive, cook, clean, help, set up, show up, make noise. Wear a mask. It's not one person that's gonna save us, it's all of us together.

A thought that hasn't left my mind for a while now: Did we all watch all the same WW2 movies because there was clearly an enemy and it seems a lot of people's idea of the bad guy did not allign with the actual villains but instead they were...idolizing them?

Please donβt post on social media about who you know to be an immigrant or anyone you know who has birthright citizenship. Donβt even post that you know anyone who is even if you are being vague about it. This is just a gut feeling I have but I imagine that could be used against people very fast

His gender is so queer that I cannot explain my feelings for this man in a normal way itβs the way he interacts with the other characters and describes his experience with attraction in like at yes this is an aroace he/him dyke and am 100% projecting because I like his character
