Good morning from Kodi post-breakfast.

The Ugly Betty episode where everyone accepts Justin’s boyfriend while they dance at Hilda’s wedding 😭😭

On Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on whether to overturn conversion therapy bans.

Jack's book is the primer you or people you know are looking for when it comes to trans lives and gender identity. My students in my sociology of sex class learned a lot from the politics chapter I assigned from it, and it generated great class discussions.

Thank you so much! Amazing to hear it’s being used!

The Minneapolis Shooter was Transgender. That Doesn’t Mean Transgender People are Dangerous. Today the country is in mourning about yet another school shooting. The tragedy in Minneapolis left two children dead and at least 18 others injured. Many more who were at Annunciation Catholic Church...

Reminder:

- 99.9% of mass shooters are cïsgender.
