I keep saying this is a powerful moment for intersectionality, because it is.

There are more of us than there are of them. That’s how we fight fascism. That’s how we fight discrimination, racism, bigotry, ableism and more.

We join together. We lead by example. We learn from one another.

We refuse to be divided and refuse to be siloed.

My substack is about disability justice, but I’m passionate about helping all marginalized and oppressed individuals.

I stand against authoritarianism and fascism. Against hate. Against division.

I stand for love, compassion, inclusion, knowledge and above all else… Community. We can do this.

'Incredibly outdated' assistance dog laws leaving people in limbo
By Madeleine Rojahn and Fiona Blackwood

Tasmanian state law has the weakest protections for people relying on assistance animals, and discrimination reports are growing. Those affected say considering legal action to access public spaces and necessary services is exhausting.

Interdire le voile dans les compétitions sportives, le nouveau coup de génie de nos dirigeants qui n'ont probablement jamais sincèrement discuté avec une personne qui porte le voile.

On est tristes de constater que les planches de Vent de Face sont toujours d'actualité.

Après avoir isoler les personnes qui portent le voile, on leur reprochera de faire du communautarisme?

La France se veut à la pointe du racisme et de l'islamophobie.

I made this video as I have seen a gigantic rise in #discrimination against people with #mentalhealth issues on the #maga side of the fence, who will constantly accuse me of faking #tourettes syndrome for money.

It's already a problem, and has gotten worse.

We can be accidentally funny, and people think we are quirky so it's faked a lot for views.

I always just say "if anyone would like proof, I have the papers from my last hospital stay!"

I thought they were trying to save money 🤔

Under #Trump, the #Consumer #FinancialProtection Bureau #CFPB has dropped nearly a dozen enforcement cases brought during the #Biden admin, ending lawsuits against #banks & #lenders for a variety of financial practices that the #watchdog agency no longer considers #illegal.

But on Wed, the bureau went a step further: It is seeking to GIVE BACK $105k that a #mortgage lender paid to settle #racial #discrimination claims….

From the article: "NEW YORK (AP) — A group of federal employees targeted for dismissal because of their involvement in diversity, equity and inclusion activities has filed a class action complaint against the Trump administration.

"The complaint alleges that the ongoing mass firings unlawfully target federal employees based on their perceived political views, infringe on their First Amendment rights and violate anti-discrimination laws by disproportionally affecting workers who are not white men."
