“❤ these photos of Taraji P. Henson, Janelle Monáe and Octavia Spencer dressed as their characters in Fox 2000’s “Hidden Figures”! In the film, which will tell the true story of the African American women mathematicians who were behind one of NASA’s first successful space missions, Henson stars as Katherine Johnson, Monáe as Mary Jackson, and Spencer as Dorothy Vaughan. We can’t wait for this trailblazing trio to hit the big screen next January!”
As seen on the Because of Them We Can by Eunique Jones Facebook page

i wish men understood that when women are talking about feminism and rape culture and shit, it’s not just a political conversation. it’s not about being a “social justice warrior” or whatever. it’s about our actual lives being shaped by misogyny since childhood, and the daily reality of living in fear of violence. this isn’t a fucking game or philosophical debate. this is our fucking lives.
this post is picking up like 100 notes per minute its outta control
i’m crying at the comment
Please help us make SIZE DISCRIMINATION ILLEGAL! Help us add SIZE as a protected ground to the Ontario Human Rights Code (OHRC). It is every person’s human right—children and adults—to not be undermined because of their body. The OHRC recognizes this in regards to race, gender, sexual orientation and other necessary protected grounds but size remains absent. We argue that all bodies deserve human rights. By signing this petition today, you are adding your voice to a movement—one demanding that people not be verbally, physically, spatially, economically, or emotionally discriminated against via discriminatory actions, beliefs, or policies in any of the Ontario Human Rights Code protected areas (i.e. accommodation (housing), contracts, employment, goods, services and facilities, membership in unions, trade or professional associations.)

It takes two to tango, and the person who vowed to love and honour Beyoncé is the biggest culprit in the Lemonade scandal.
“Not shaving is’t always a choice for women of colour,”
"Body hair is something women of colour in western societies are taught to be shameful of from a young age. It seems hairiness is now a symbol of emancipation while hairy bodies of colour are still deemed savage. Where was hair feminism when we were ashamed of our legs in PE? Where was the full eyebrow trend when so many of us were humiliated for our uni and thick brows, by girls with brows so bright you couldn’t even tell where their skin started?"

Budget 2016: Not enough Real Change™ for Women
Lucy DeCoutere on the Ghomeshi disaster:
"I can’t live with this the way it is right now. There has to be something positive which comes from this. When I first went into this experience, it was like “Get Jian to stop hurting people.” Then my focus changed. Instead of dwelling — as I will do, on what happened personally — there’s got to be a better way to fix the system. Maybe we can use this awful opportunity to make a bit more of an even playing field."

"My body is my own. It cannot be bought for three drinks at a dimly lit bar, or with flowers, or tickets to a show. When I do say yes, it will be because I want to."
