This is an important measure of relief for the Syrian people. Lives will be saved. Unfortunately, it comes after many years of unnecessary sanctions-induced suffering.

Trump says he’s lifting sanction on Syria to “give them a chance at greatness.” As he gets a standing ovation, he adds of MBS, “Oh, what I do for the Crown Prince….”

I was recently floored by a line of dialogue in a children’s book—“We don’t ignore bigotry, Jack. That’s how cowardly bigots turn into brave bigots”—if you were wondering why children’s books are important, and why there has been so much concerted effort to ban them.

“No one cares about your special interest—” I do. Tell me about how caterpillars dissolve into liquid in the cocoon, how sharks are older than Saturn’s rings, how the earth has just the right moon for eclipses. Time is so brief and life is a journey of constant discovery.

They are the spark that ignites revolution. So, this IWD, I’m refusing. And I hope you will too. #genderequality #genderequity /end

They’re refusing to be silenced. Refusing to be worn down. Refusing to break. These women defy paternalistic, tired narratives of passivity and victimhood. They lead resistance movements. They establish anti-war initiatives. They are at the forefront of liberation struggles. 6/

I’m refusing because women the world over are living under occupation, apartheid, genocide, femicide, conflict, and war. And these women, women from #Palestine 🇵🇸, #Ethiopia 🇪🇹, #Sudan 🇸🇩, #Cameroon 🇨🇲, #Myanmar 🇲🇲, #Afghanistan 🇦🇫, and elsewhere, are refusing. 5/

I’m refusing because white feminism, which privileges the few at the expense of the many, is still too dominant and pervasive, while no less harmful and insidious. 4/

I’m refusing because the women who came before me — whose fight was twice as hard — deserve to keep the hard-fought gains they made. Refusing because the women who will come after me deserve to not have to fight. 3/

Oppressive patriarchal systems are designed to shrink the imagination, to have us believe how it is today is how it always will be, and to beat us into submission before we can build the world we want to see. This IWD, I’m refusing.

This International Women’s Day, I’m refusing to accept the global rollback on women’s, gender, and 🏳️‍🌈LGBT 🏳️‍⚧️ rights. Refusing the status quo. Refusing to dream small. Refusing to believe another world isn’t possible. 1/ #IWD #IWD2025 #InternationalWomansday
