Two Portraits. Surreal portraits of a mother and child, constructed with torn paper. They seem to come from another era, perhaps from a farm in the 1800s. They are each staring at you, the portrait taker. Handmade paper collage.

It took 500 years, and generational trauma, but thanks to Native children. The Pope renounced the doctrine of discovery stating "It doesn't align with the churches veiws." So glad it took 500 years and a new Pope to say this...🙄😳

Good morning. Our doors would be shutting today and all of us would be out of work, if 1000s of people hadn't come together to say that #TexasNeedsAnObserver.

We are so grateful to all of you on this #Newstodon Friday!

@kevinrns @BlackRonin72 multitheistic religions were were far more tolerant as due to multiple gods they allowed different views

This came to me from a trans friend I know really, really well. For years now. And from that, I can tell you that there actually is a trans agenda. And it is this:

To walk through the world without getting their rights, bodies, and lives taken and attacked by people who hate them for no reason at all.

That’s it.

#TransDayOfVisibility

Today, San Antonio and the world honor the legacy of César Chávez, who fought tirelessly for the rights and dignity of farmworkers.

This week, I was proud to join U.S. Rep. Tony Cárdenas and Senator Bob Menendez in a resolution to commemorate his life and enduring impact.

No, you cannot have the bathroom key.

If Spring doesn’t come to California 💯, I bring Spring flowers to me via my sweater.

As states across the country continue to pass anti-trans legislation, we need to uplift trans people and fight for their rights—now more than ever.
 
I am proud to stand with the Equality Caucus as an ally of the trans community. #TransDayofVisibility
