A picture of Shirley Chisholm with a qoute "In the end anticlockwise, antifemale, and all forms of discrimination are equivalent to the same thing: antihumanism."

yesterday was the birthday of John Lewis:
"Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."

What's good to follow on Medium? What other platform do you follow or use?

“My wish for you is that you continue. Continue to be who and how you are, to astonish a mean world with your acts of kindness.”

Photos of people carrying banners and signs in stand outs and events, many of them uplifting messages of love and affirmation for our trans and non binary siblings. A swipe of blue, pink and white stripes across the middle of the graphic. Text reads "They will know us by our LOVE"

"Today, tomorrow & always the fluidity of our expression & experiences will live on. Trans & non-binary siblings are made in the image of God – period."

...To Love
To be lifted up
And to lift others up.
O’ Sacred One
Untangle my feet
from all that ensnares.
Free my soul.
That we might
Dance
and that our dancing
might be contagious.

~Hafiz

I sometimes forget
that I was created for Joy.
My mind is too busy.
My Heart is too heavy
for me to remember
that I have been
called to dance
the Sacred dance of life.
I was created to smile...

"Most adults I know aren't looking for a religion that answers all of their questions, but rather a community of faith in which they feel safe to ask them." - Rachel Held Evans, may she rest in peace.
