Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, Stonewall Veteran and Legendary Trans Activist, Has Died at 78 Miss Major continued fighting for trans rights even after two strokes and other health concerns.

We're all traveling a path Miss Major paved for us. She touched so many lives, and left her mark across 50 years of organizing, fighting, and loving. I miss her deeply. But I know she’s going to persist as the most hands-on ancestor we’ve got. Rest in Power 🖤👠 www.them.us/story/miss-m...

‘Sinners’, Coogler and Questions of Ownership There was a time when Black creatives could simply be grateful for the opportunity to make something, but that wasn’t true freedom. True freedom is to make it, own it, and build a legacy from it, writ...

My piece on Sinners, its questions and considerations of ownership and freedom, and how Ryan Coogler utilized those themes to create a legacy for himself and Black creatives. #Sinners

SINNERS

I know you aren't going to want to hear this but the reason the system can deport Mahmoud Khalil and send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador is that for years we've been executing factually innocent people like Marcellus Williams and sending legally innocent people to places like Riker's Island.

Crush the oligarchy includes Joanne.

1,100 pieces against trans people in just 4 papers over 1 year. Almost 1 a day per paper. With absolutely no recourse at all. Is it any wonder that trans people are both angry and terrified?

Fine. Whatever.

Stonewall National Monument (U.S. National Park Service) Before the 1960s, almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) person was illegal. The Stonewall Uprising on June 28, 1969 is a milestone in the quest for LGB civil rights a...

The National Park Service made Stonewall a national monument in 2016. Today, all language pertaining to trans people is gone from the page - it's LGB, the T and the Q are gone. Visit their site, click NO on "was this page helpful," and let them know what you think of this. www.nps.gov/ston/index.htm

Making MAJOR! was one of the most incredible collaborative processes I've ever been part of, and now more than ever it's so vital that WE preserve our history, in the face of authoritarians who would seek to erase it.

Our stories are our power, and they cannot be burned away.

Meme showing screenshots from Star Wars where Padme says “so this is how liberty dies” and instead of saying “with thunderous applause” it says “with a coup by a fake government agency named after a meme run by the most divorced man alive and his troop of incel twinks”

Deeply good writing from @theradr.bsky.social on how we meet this moment, and this line really hit home:

“They are deliberately attempting to trigger a trauma response so that we are less able to respond from our whole selves and more likely to just go along with whatever's happening.”

Europeans on democracy’s frontlines offer advice to Americans: never give up With the new Trump era likely to pose unprecedented challenges the message from Europe’s fragile democracies is: stay united and safeguard your institutions

"Europeans who witnessed democracy crumble before their eyes have some words of advice for Americans now entering the second Trump era.... stay united, safeguard your civic institutions and never, never give up." www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

Someone please update this so I understand how the US government now works...

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later

Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner
