ICE raids remind us: fandom should be a safe haven. @TamikaButler bridges equity in our streets & in our stands—because belonging is a right.
Listen to her story and others via the link in our bio or wherever you get your podcasts.

I'm loving this so far. If you haven't gotten your copy yet...do it! Beyond lucky to call @ctbrown1911 a friend and someone I love learning with and from, so go grab this book! @IslandPress published another good one. And thanks, @reparationsclub for always having the books.

Due to some health stuff, I can’t make the ride this year. But I’m more committed than ever to raise money for the @LALGBTCenter & support my Rider Dykes teammates. If you have a little space to give and support the queer community, please visit giving.aidslifecycle.org/par… and give!

10 Things you can do on #IndigenousPeoplesDay besides just re-share this and other posts. 🧵
1. Support pro-Tribal organizations. Donate to orgs like @NCAI1944 and @NDNRights advocate for the rights of Native people and Tribes in the Courts and in Congress.

Gotta thank @OlufemiOTaiwo and his transformative book, Reconsidering Reparations, for framing my thinking and making sure that this is a question I ask myself every single day as I think about how I want to move through the world.

@TamikaButler Black Women have always shown up for this country even when others haven't shown up for them. We own so much to that movement.
