Viola Desmond was an African Nova Scotian who served not only as an entrepreneurial mentor to young women from her community, but whose 1946 criminal prosecution for daring to violate racial segregation in a New Glasgow theatre marked a watershed moment for civil rights and social justice in Canada.

Yeah, I’ll add that I’d encourage people to take rhetoric seriously about ending no-fault divorce and even taking away women’s right to vote. These ideas have been making the rounds on the far right for years, which could serve as foundation for their becoming Republican policy goals.
All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool

Rage, anger—this is a powerful, beautiful, necessary emotion. Anger is our armor against violation. We need it and should use it.
But anger cannot be your foundation. It is still a form of pain, and as you get closer to what you want, as your pain recedes, your foundation will slip away.
