Their name was Nex Benedict.
They were 16 years old and deserved to live for many more years.
I can’t stop thinking about them and how every adult in that school and state failed them.
How the hateful rhetoric and dog whistle bathroom bills pushed by far right religious extremists led to this tragedy.
3 older teen girls beat them so badly they died from their injuries. Nex was murdered by hate.
We have been warning that the legal targeting of the trans community recently was going to lead to tragedy like this. We have been screaming from the rooftops that the right wing isn’t protecting anyone. And here we are.
I will continue to do what I can in the off line space to make the world safer for my community.
But I will also not forget Nex Benedict. Say their name. Remember who they were and who they never got the chance to become.

Two more journalists killed by Israeli bombing
Quoting from Al Jazeera:
In the past 24 hours, six media professionals have been killed by Israeli bombing, including journalists Sari Mansour and Hassouneh Salim. They were hit by an Israeli air strike on the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. At least 55 Palestinian media workers have been killed since October 7.

today is the 1 year anniversary of the death of Mahsa Amini at the hands of Iran’s Morality Police. it sparked massive protests by Iranian citizens, largely women, seeking rights, justice, and freedom.
the movement is not over. progress is being made, but it has been brutal. many have been jailed, tortured, assaulted, and killed. please continue supporting Iranian citizens and uplifting their message.

It's so crazy... 2020 feels like a complete fever dream... I thought and hoped and prayed that we would keep the BLM momentum going like it was that year... But we didn't .... People started to forget and speak on it less.
I posted and still post as much as I can ab Black lives on my Facebook... Ab other social justice issues. Sometimes it felt like I was just screaming into a void... I still feel betrayed at times, by the white girlies who just a few years ago were in the streets saying "if they start shooting stand behind me"
My life doesn't feel important to most ppl. They talk a big game ab caring and wanting things to change, but at the end of the day most ppl don't want the status quo to change. They just want to do enough to look like a good person.
If this post makes you angry, makes you feel some typa way then I URGE you to look inwards and figure out WHY it strikes such an uncomfortablity in you. Figure out what you could be doing more...
I know it's difficult to hear these words, I know looking inwards is hard and uncomfortable, I've been there, I STILL have a cop in my head that I need to kill. We ALL do!

Hi....
This News came out at the end of November, but I couldn't share it with you guys (due to Laziness. I'm sorry)....
News
Farideh Moradkhani, the niece of Islamic Republic’s "Supreme" Leader, calls on international community to support Iranians. She compares her uncle to Hitler and Mussolini. She says Iranians will overthrow the Islamic Republic.
She was then arrested.
It checks out. She is indeed a Niece of Khamenei.
I have shared the (link to the youtube) Video here...
Edit- The Morality Police did not get disbanded. It was just Propaganda by the West, that s*cks Khamenei D*ck....
Shame on them.
Well. Shame on me.
Fool me once, shame on me......
Please share.
Please reblog.
Freedom for Iran.
Women. Life. Freedom

when we lose another sibling
CONTENT WARNING: death. proceed with care and be kind to yourself.
when we lose another sibling
(and we surely will),
i want you to go outside
and cry
and cry
and cry
and cry.
when we lose another sibling
i want you to scream 
at the top of your lungs:
THEY DID NOT DESERVE TO DIE.
when we lose another sibling
i want you to shout yourself hoarse
at this vast 
indifferent abyss:
IT DID NOT HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS.
when we lose another sibling
i want you to gather flowers
and palm fronds
and fill the street with mourning.
when we lose another sibling
i want you to say their names.
when we lose another sibling
i want you to give the world
a warning:
THINGS WILL NOT BE THE SAME.
----------------------------------------------------------
SAY THEIR NAMES.
Over the past year, these trans and nonbinary people died under violent circumstances in the United States.

Man with gun kills two women. Coward uses gun on unarmed victims.
This is misogyny. It is the oxygen for all Right Wing rhetoric. Violence towards women is GOP policy.
Republicans will do NOTHING to lower gun deaths because gun deaths drive guns sales, and Republicans will never hurt gun sales.

If this isn't a genocide, tell us what this is ? For the sake of money, we are watching the world burn. Today its palestine, tomorrow it could be us.
