When a disaster strikes, vulnerabilities are magnified, exposing them to increased risks of exploitation, displacement, and trauma. The aftermath of a hurricane can mean losing what little security they had, making survival even more precarious. https://t.co/LruVu7hBRp

Thank you @Imani_Barbarin. As of now we have $200k in requests and we have sent out around $42k between our $20k and the money we’ve raised so far. We will continue to send out money as it comes in and get whatever we can to whomever needs it, including after Hurricane Milton.

The lack of clarity for Texas doctors navigating the abortion ban continues. Meanwhile, we're seeing an increase in maternal mortality, pregnant patients bleeding out in ERs, miscarrying in public restrooms, losing reproductive organs, and nearly dying before receiving care.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court lets stand a decision barring emergency abortions that violate Texas ban

Budgets are moral documents. The fact that we have so much money for bombs and so little for healthcare, food, and families is an atrocity. And no, we will not stop talking about this as a reproductive justice issue, no matter what funding gets pulled from us.
We Testify unequivocally supports the autonomy of the Palestinian people and the end of the Israeli occupation of Palestine, which is in part funded by the United States’ tax dollars. True reproductive justice necessitates the liberation of Palestine. #FreePalestine

Again and again and again — cops lie. They lie. All the time, and especially if they are implicated in violence themselves. This is well established and documented, and yet another reminder that when media outlets repeat police narratives unchecked, they are spreading copaganda.
The family of Sonya Massey says that police originally told them she had killed herself. Police DID NOT initially tell family that law enforcement had killed Massey.

Project 2025 is really bad. But Black and Indigenous people have been denied bodily autonomy, safety, and freedom since Project 1492 and Project 1776.

Florida's refusal to allow transgender individuals to update their birth certificates is a stark reminder of the ongoing challenges faced by the trans community. https://t.co/KQ81NDOHee

The rejection comes without public notice or new law — even when all other government-issued identification reflects their current gender identity.

@_ubaraibara @DJBritStar Because you aren’t paying attention or listening to the sex workers who do the work. There are over 230 sex worker led NGOs and grassroots organizations in the US alone. A small samplingnof them include: @strippersunite successfully sued their state for Pandemic Unemployment
