For #DeafYouth to thrive and succeed, it takes an entire community of organizations. In recognition of the power of community, we reached out to the @NBDAdvocates to learn and share more about the work they do. nationaldeafcenter.org/news/…

To survivors of any trauma who worry about being believed, or that their situation wasn’t “bad” enough or “too” bad, or fear being branded or deemed “manipulative” for telling the truth: I see you. Community is here for you. You are safe with me, & with all of us. You are loved!

Please don’t use MLK quotes for #MLKDay unless you actually support his ideas around Black liberation. We all know “I have a dream” If you’re gonna quote him, tell us about his socialism, his ideas around white moderates, his thoughts on the federal government being racist.

#Sexworkers aren’t asking ⁦@KamalaHarris⁩ for a lot: They’re simply asking to be treated as any other group of American workers. “You don’t have to like sex work, but you need to respect the people doing it, and listen to them” ⁦@akynos⁩ thenation.com/article/societ…

Sex work is work. The federal gov has done almost nothing to help people in months. We must pass stimulus checks, UI, small biz relief, hospital funding, etc. Keep the focus of shame there, not on marginalizing people surviving a pandemic without help. rollingstone.com/culture/cul…
