1. The Seneca Falls Convention of 1848, the first women's rights convention in the U.S., was organized by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. It focused on advocating for women's civil, social, and religious rights.

Equal rights for women are crucial because they contribute to justice, equality, opportunity for all, regardless of gender, race, or background. When women have equal rights, society benefits in numerous ways, as these rights are essential to unlocking the full potential of half of the population.

History is always being made. This #BlackHistoryMonth, we are grateful for and grounded by Dr. Angela Davis’s powerful words to the People's March—read by the remarkable Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson—to remind us that the fight for justice, equality, and freedom is relentless and unstoppable. Watch in 🧵

They’re coming after funding.
They’re coming after education.
They’re coming after our data & payments.
They’re coming after workers that don’t comply.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump want to pillage our democracy to make themselves rich. But we won't let them.

2025: Instead of celebrating a quarter-centennial, 25 years of the 21st century, we’re being held back fighting outdated prejudice from the 1800s.

We could be so much better than this.

We could be advancing so much.

Never forget, they want us to regress, instead of moving forward, progressively.

My grandma walked hand in hand with my mom, tio, prima, y yo. We walked for each other and for everyone that can't speak up. Today is a day with many more to come. #viva

Remember when the people of the US were fighting for their right to vote? That didn't just mean women. It meant everyone apart of unmarginalized communities. They are trying to bring this time in our history back.

I want to stress something important.

I know about the Times’ owner, and his interference in the Ed page (and maybe more).

But without the LAT, you would only know what the White House told you about this.

Support journalists and journalism.

The difference between Bluesky and Twitter is that on Bluesky I can post that I have a book coming out today and 200 people will like it, whereas on Twitter it would get 17 views and a reply telling me to shove my fancy book learnin'.

Gosh, I remember when we had an actual president instead of a loudmouth bully who won't take responsibility for his actions.
