Three high schoolers founded a book club that reads some of the country's most frequently banned books after a state law removing books with sexual content was signed in 2023. Two years later, many of the books have been reshelved and parts of the law can't be enforced.

Autistic people that are nonverbal and uninterested in interaction also deserve support, accessibility, and have the right to live. Period. Your ability to make money or contribute to society isn't what gives you the right to live comfortably. Existing does. Capitalist nonsense be damned.

Anti-trans policies don't just hurt trans people. They hurt anyone who doesn't fit neatly into a pink box or a blue one. And they hurt the rest of us by creating pressure to ensure that we always fit neatly into our box.

You cannot separate right wing pronatalism from eugenics. They are too interconnected. There is this broad belief that eugenics was just about the sterilization of the “unfit” but this ignores the other side of the coin, that the “fit” should have more children. That’s what pronatalism is about

A great read on how hard it is for the families (and fans) of African and Asian athletes to attend sporting events in Europe. www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024...
Olympics are far from being ‘wide open’ to Africans
Many Africans are denied access to sporting events, and athletes and performers are exposed to discrimination and racial abuse.
