Memphis's skateboarders pushing down Main Street in honor of Tyre Nichols, who was known for his skills at parks here and in Sacramento.
The skating scene here is more scattered than Sac's, skaters say, but they told me they still feel like they lost a part of their family.

CRT does not “teach white children to hate their race”. It teaches all children to be aware of white privilege in the history and current systems of western culture.
If “being white” means an inalienable right to privilege, you’ve just illustrated racism and the need for CRT.

The relative silence from other groups re: AP African American Studies mess is quite... loud.
Imagine a state trying to formally wipe Jewish history, Asian American history, or other marginalized groups from AP curricula.
If they come for us, they can come for yall, too.

People say that being trans is a "religion" and we want to convert people. Truth is we don't wish being trans on anyone - look at the hate we get. We just want acceptance.
Now, a hallmark of religion is forcible conversion, which is what haters want to do to us. Funny, that.

In 5 minutes, the Montana House Judiciary will hear a bill that gives doctors the right to refuse care based on their conscience.
This will be targeted against medically necessary abortions as well as trans people.
Both groups have seen people die from this kind of action.

A representative for one of the EMS networks in Montana is discussing how this bill will allow EMTs to discriminate which could lead to the death of people based on the EMT's conscience.

People who are like "omg people might go on HRT and regret it" really don't understand the way women are routinely given hormonal contraception with horrific side effects and body changes with nowhere near the level of discussion and warning trans people get.

Legislators need to know the cruel impact that anti-trans bills have on trans people, who have statistically one of the highest suicide rates. Whenever anti trans bills are passed, suicide searches spike. When they are defeated, they go down.
It’s that big a signal.

Last year, he vetoed a sports ban saying "I want them to live.
But this ban will kill.
