The 21 plaintiffs, many of whom are minors, say government policies infringe on their rights. "We need to as a country, do much bigger things," Leigh-Ann Draheim, the mother of one plaintiff said.

The youngest plaintiff, Levi, is 11. He was 8 when the lawsuit was first filed.

We were raised in, and exist in, a racist society.

Under these conditions: racism isn’t something you simply abstain from. Racism is something you must actively unlearn.

[prismatic-bell]

Two years ago, I had a Deaf girl show up in my drivethru on Halloween. Her mom was kind of sad when I tried to offer the girl candy, and you could tell it’d been a rough night. I asked her to get the girl’s attention, and then signed to her the way I learned from those top gifs. She started laughing and clapping her hands at once, and when I held out the bowl of candy she was DELIGHTED. I think there’s a very serious possibility I was the only person all night who was able to share with her that way.

It matters. Learn.

[legallynonbinary]

I legally acquired a government issued birth certificate which says that my legally recognized sex is nonbinary, WITHOUT MY BIOLOGICAL SEX BEING INTERSEX.

My birth certificate PROVES that ANYONE can LEGALLY HAVE THEIR GENDER AFFIRMED AS NONBINARY WITHOUT PROVING INTERSEX STATUS and without PROVING THAT THEY ARE “BIOLOGICALLY” NONBINARY/INTERSEX.

IT IS ILLEGAL TO DENY PEOPLE LIKE US BIRTH CERTIFICATES THAT ALLIGN WITH OUR GENDER.

GO GET YOUR NONBINARY BIRTH CERTIFICATE TODAY!!!

JOIN THE REVOLUTION, get your nonbinary birth certificate, SHOW TRUMP THAT HE has no legal jurisdiction to ROLL BACK ESTABLISHED LAWS. Trump has sworn to UPHOLD United States law, which INCLUDES THIS LEGAL PRECIDENT!!!!!!

What he is trying to do is illegal by legal precident.

YOU CAN HELP BY GETTING YOUR NONINTERSEX NONBINARY BIRTH CERTIFICATE TOO!!!

Message me if you need help with your case.

We are here for you.

No one can or will erase us. We are here to stay!!

You are valid!! Give yourself the ultimate gift of legal validation today!!!!

You deserve it!!!!

Reminder that the mayor of Pittsburgh and Rabbis and Jewish leaders asked Trump not to come to Pittsburgh.

The former Rabbi of Tree of Life went on MSNBC just last night to implore Trump not to come.

He did not listen, just like he never does.

He has to have All the Attentions.

[helperhoopoe]

stop insulting yourself. it doesn’t help.

[rottentrauma]

But what if it’s true

[helperhoopoe]

it still doesn’t help. you can call yourself as many names as you want, but it won’t make you a better, happier, healthier or kinder person.

punishment doesn’t work. only positive reinforcement does. be kind to yourself and get better.

Why You Should Actually Be Terrified Right Now

Stripping citizens of their passports is a precursor to genocide.

It’s what happened to Jews in Germany in 1938 when their passports were declared invalid. That is what is beginning to happen here, now, to Hispanic citizens along the U.S.-Mexico border.

Oh, is it bad to compare the GOP to Nazis? Well, if members of the GOP do not like being compared to Nazis, they should consider not behaving exactly like Nazis.

Hispanic U.S. citizens, some of whom were in the U.S. military, are not being allowed to renew their passports. This is reportedly happening to “hundreds, even thousands” of Latinos, according to a report in the Washington Post. They’re getting letters from the State Department saying it does not believe they are citizens. The government claims their citizenships are fraudulent. “I’ve had probably 20 people who have been sent to the detention center—U.S. citizens,” Jaime Diez, an attorney in Brownsville, told The Washington Post.

The Washington Post also reports on ICE officials coming to citizens’ homes and taking their passports away. This is an escalation from a few months ago, when Americans were detained by ICE officials just for speaking Spanish to one another.

The administration is currently launching an effort to take citizenship from people who they suspect of fraud in obtaining it. Fraud in these cases is exceedingly rare. The last time the government tried to strip people of their citizenship was, according to Columbia Professor Mae Ngai, during The Red Scare of the 1950s. As Ngai remarks, McCarthyism is not typically remembered as a good period in American history.

There is good reason to believe that this could portend still worse things to come for the U.S. Hispanic population, unless people begin to speak out loudly, and fast.

First, they came for the Hispanics and I did nothing.

Then they came for (fill in the blanks) and I did nothing.

Then, when they came for me, there was no one to do nothing.
