My existence is not an idea. My family is a reality. Your religious views are much more dangerous and threatening to my family than we have ever been to you. How do I opt my kid out of your bigotry? #lgbtq #booksky #supremecourt www.npr.org/2025/04/22/n... podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

What in the Margaret Atwood dystopian nightmare is this?!? “Ms. Collins sent the White House several executive orders, including one that would bestow a ‘National Medal of Motherhood’ to mothers with 6 or more children.”🥇👶👶👶👶👶👶 #project2025 #resist #feminist #mom www.nytimes.com/2025/04/21/u...

Protecting and sharing queer history is more important than ever. Do you remember when you first realized our community has a history? I don’t like saying I grew up “sheltered” because shelter implies care and protection. #lgbtq #film #documentary #lesbians www.thearchivettes.com/trailer

Our society has to keep women as second class citizens because if we ever recognized the true value of their unpaid or underpaid work we would never be able to afford them. #feminist #motherhood #parenting #resist #therapy #invisiblelabor #mentalhealth #women open.substack.com/pub/gemmahar...

Wow. I thought I’d be spending this year fighting for banned books. Turns out, my identity is banned. Words banned in the government that apply to me: * Woman/Female/Person with a Uterus * LGBTQ * Disabled * Feminist #resist #thisiswhywefight #feminist substack.com/@lorimanning...

Americans: “I’m tired of protesting. It doesn’t work.” French Women: “Hold my shirt.” #resist #thisiswhywefight

These intimidation tactics are aimed at bring #teachers into compliance with cultural conservatism. An End #DEI government portal allows anyone to report a teacher. Decorating a #Women’sHistoryMonth bulletin board might now bring retribution. #education #resist edsource.org/2025/u-s-dep...

“Reject the manufactured narrative that trans and queer people are ‘disgusting and obscene,’ a narrative Rufo, Trump, and Project 2025 are determined to cement.” We will not go quietly back to the 1950s. #lgbtqrights #transrights #resist #thisiswhywefight 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
