Librarianship has long been dominated by women, but that has historically not translated to true equity in other dimensions. ALA's Committee on the Status of Women in Librarianship was created in 1976 to further the advancement of women within the field.

The First Amendment fully protects our right to record ICE agents, police, FBI, National Guard troops, and other government officials performing their duties in public.
Know your rights while filming, how to protect your digital privacy, and what to do if you're stopped or arrested for recording.
The federal government is executing American citizens in the middle of the street for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of speech.
This is tyranny. No free people can accept this kind of government. We need to bring an end to the Trump regime.
If you’re defending kidnapping a five year old, you’re losing
We all need to multi-task now...
I know for a fact that your elected representatives respond when they get FLOODED with phone calls and emails from their constituents.
Call yours NOW and DON'T LET UP.
Demand they defund ICE.
Demand the FULL release of the #EpsteinFiles.
Ben Damberg protest volunteer: “None of us want to be doing this — I don’t, but we simply cannot stand by as other Minnesotans are being hurt — we will march, we will protest, & we will do it all peacefully above all else”
Do you know how hard it is to get cops to seemingly side with people shot by a bunch of officers
If the government executing us in the streets isn’t your red line, then you’ve already decided to endorse it.
There’s no gray area left. No ambiguity.
Our government is murdering the citizens of this country. They are doing it without any checks on their violence
To repeat: Abolish ICE.
ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.
By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.
From this moment forward (and before, but clearly now):
-If you work for ICE.
-If you vote for money for ICE.
You are complicit. This is the gestapo. You're on the wrong side. You can't pretend not to know.
You know what’s worse than the image? Actually doing it.
So let me get this straight. The Justice Department WON’T investigate the shooting of a woman protesting ICE excesses in Minnesota but WILL investigate the Governor and Mayor?
What are you going to charge the Mayor and Governor with? “Felony disagreement?”
Absurd and shameful.
Georgia mother: My premiums increased 7 times over. It's not just crushing my dream, it has crushed my daughter's dreams. It's crushing so many other families' dreams. Their small businesses are being squeezed...I don't want other people to feel this pain that that my family is carrying right now.
Please! They’re finding that even though subclade K evades many immune defenses, hospitalizations among children especially are still mostly kids who weren’t vaccinated. theyre finding vaccination still slows community spread and is reducing illness severity. GET VACCINATED.
The Virginia legislature today passed four constitutional amendments, all by day 3 of 2026 session:
—protect abortion rights
—repeal the same-sex marriage ban
—allow mid-decade redistricting
—greatly expand voting rights restoration.
These will all go to 2026 referendums.
This is interesting, but it’s unclear to me how it will be enforced, unless state law enforcement is going to start arresting members of ICE.
Buttigieg: Some say you can’t talk about any of the things that were wrong about America because that must mean you hate America. To me, anytime we talk about something that wrong, it’s because some of the finest moments that brought out the greatest character of this country is how we put it right.
Historically, America is very good at standing up for what is right. In the Trump era, the right to protest is violently under attack. I will show you a step-by-step guide to safe protesting with @brotherjones.bsky.social and @stacup.bsky.social's Jill Garvey, who runs ICE Watch trainings. #Velshi
NEWS: A federal judge found that ICE had repeatedly retaliated against peaceful protesters in unconstitutional ways — and barred agents involved in Minnesota's "Operation Metro Surge" from using similar tactics and force.

Except if you’re a Jeffrey Epstein co-conspirator….
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."
Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.
The light that never goes out (plus candles for the Bondi Beach victims)
a wealth tax is a winning issue.
I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win
X has changed their policy and now you can see where the accounts are based.
