No, you did not just read about a racist protest that took place in the 1950s. THIS HAPPENED RIGHT HERE IN 2017…… Dozens of white supremacists gathered around with literal fucking torches while chanting nazi ideologies as an intimidation tactic… you wanna know the scariest part? they’re not wearing hoods or any other form of “protection”, which means they don’t even care about being exposed anymore…. I’m telling ya’ll white supremacy is one of the biggest threats to america. we cannot allow history to repeat itself by allowing this terrorism to continue
TW for rape, sexual assault
Under the GOP’s health plan, sexual assault would be considered a preexisting condition
“Under the amendment, states would have the all-clear to waive the ban preventing insurance companies from denying coverage to patients based on preexisting conditions. That means companies can also deny preventive health care services, like mammograms and gynecological exams, to these patients, which sexual assault survivors in particular rely on following an attack.”
The Republican War on Women won’t stop until WE STOP IT. U.S. readers, register to vote here.

I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength or their powerful political connections or their great wealth, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books from their shelves, and have refused to reveal to thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles.
So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.

Best photo I’ve seen today is of this young half-Pakistani, half-Bosnian woman, Saffiyah Khan, grinning EDL scum down. She embodies the essential “Takleef?” stance here and I love it.
This weekend, Russian media reported that officials in the republic of Chechnya have detained more than 100 gay men and killed at least three. The number of dead may actually be much higher; in recent weeks, gay men have been simply disappearing off the streets.
Russian officials are saying this is impossible because “there are no gay people in Russia.” Really.
A spokesman for Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, who is a vocal supporter of Russian President Vladimir Putin, denied that any such activities have taken place. He further suggested that there are no gay people in the country at all.
“You cannot arrest or repress people who just don’t exist in the republic,” spokesman Alvi Karimov said in a statement obtained by Radio Free Europe on Saturday. “If such people existed in Chechnya, law enforcement would not have to worry about them, as their own relatives would have sent them to where they could never return.”
Holy. Shit.
The Trump administration won’t count LGBTQ Americans in the next census
- The Trump administration won’t add questions about sexual orientation or gender identity to the 2020 census.
- This means that LGBTQ Americans will continue to go uncounted by the survey that’s intended to be the “leading source of quality data about the nation’s people,” according to the census website.
- A draft from earlier this month of the administration’s plans for the 2020 census had included a proposal to add questions about sexual orientation and gender identity, the Huffington Post reported, but in the final report that the administration submitted to Congress this week, those subjects had been removed.
