“Nature does not exist with the sole purpose to procreate, and neither do humans,” writes drag queen, artist, and environmentalist Pattie Gonia in our Spring issue. “Nature exists to provide mutual aid so that a whole ecosystem can survive and thrive.”

Why is GOP dismantling Dept of Ed?

Because, as Jason Stanley's book says, "Erasing History is How Fascists Rewrite the Past to Control the Future."

That is why we must continue to support educators who teach people's history & critical literacy in K-12.

Just watched Sarah Polley’s phenom #womentalking and cannot get over the way it speaks to this moment. How desperately we need Acts of Female Imagination.

Just saw a farmer say, "you don't have to admit you were wrong, you have to admit you were lied to, " and idk that seems like a good framing to call people in

According to a senior CDC official, some of the pages that were removed on Friday have been reinstated due to backlash from the scientific community and the public. Keep speaking up, it matters!

The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.

I'm trying to save them.

You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

It is worth thinking deeply about what is normalized, enforced, or denied through the stories we can access, even in childhood (maybe especially in childhood).
This is a thread about book banning. Right now, today, books are being pulled from shelves in libraries and classrooms, some by direct order, some in fear of what's coming. This is *exactly* what Project 2025 said was going to happen. Make no mistake: this is not about books; it's about people. 1/8

Enjoy the last seven days of the US as we knew it. Not saying it was perfect or anything, but it is about to go off the rails.

7 January 1792: #OTD Mary Wollstonecraft's Vindication of the Rights of Women was published.

This text was hugely influential and is regarded as one of the earliest works of feminist philosophy.
