"I am a deaf-blind swimmer. How can I feel safe navigating the chaotic and confusing Paralympic venues without a personal care assistant I trust?" writes Becca Meyer for @usatodayopinion. https://t.co/sIKXZOlrqA

We need to stop the fear mongering that women are fragile and should be careful in sports because of their natural biology. Calling B.S. Amen, Dr. Ellie Somers. https://t.co/sJUgPBUvRz @drelliesomers

Huge congrats on your OTQ! You inspire me to keep going for it!

I wrote about Serena:

(2/2) When a woman is emotional, she’s “hysterical” and she’s penalized for it. When a man does the same, he’s “outspoken” & and there are no repercussions. Thank you, @serenawilliams, for calling out this double standard. More voices are needed to do the same.

You can lose endorsement income for being a mom. You can lose your ranking for being a mom. You can lose a year of experience... You can lose your world-beating body... You can lose your life (literally)... But you’re supposed to forget you’re a mom on the court.

Can you think of any laws that give the government the power to make decisions about the male body? https://t.co/lDcXPZ56hX

When black mothers try to receive care, their symptoms and pains are ignored by our health care system too often. That’s one reason why black women in the U.S. are 3 to 4 times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than white women. #BlackMaternalMortality

Love this story!

You know, just one of those weeks when we had a baby:

I overheard two flight attendants talking for an hour about all the ways they’ve tried to shrink themselves, and it reminded me how much we as women are socialized to be small. Entire industries depend on it. Take up space. Be yourself. Change the world. (Art: @jacquelinealnes)

We can never truly repay the debt we owe our fallen heroes. But we can remember them, honor their sacrifice, and affirm in our own lives those enduring ideals of justice, equality, and opportunity for which generations of Americans have given that last full measure of devotion.

Nice work everyone!!!
