Welcome to my TED Talk on the far-right in Ireland. THREAD –
A lot of people on the far right in Ireland seem to be having difficulty understanding why we call them “far-right” so here’s a little explainer for those at the back
If you use "Antifa" (short for anti-fascist) as an insult, you're far-right
#RoeVsWade should be the moment “Gender Critics” snap out of their radicalisation. Their “leaders” JKR, KS, AB, HS, HJ etc have been canoodling with the very same people who have helped make this happen 1/9 🧵🪡
They liaise & accept funds from the far right, religious orgs, the media & corrupt governments. Please reflect on their hate & who they are pals with. This is a crossroads for you all to stop & join in fighting the real dangers facing women and society 2/9
See that they want to control you & strip away your rights just as much as they want to strip away the rights of the LGBTQ+ community. 3/9
I have joined the Army of brave souls who completed their #PhD during the global #pandemic of 2020 #COVID19 . I am full of gratitude to everyone that contributed to this mammoth achievement directly or indirectly. 🎓👨🔬👨💼 @forbeslabumass @JWLeeJWL @UMassChemEng #microbiome #mucus 
I am looking into ways to have my name on the diploma to be 'Abhinav Priyanka Sharma'. My wife @priyankaitkar9 has contributed equally towards this degree emotionally. Without her love & support it would be incredibly hard to find the courage to keep going when I hit rock bottom.
My parents never went to college but made sure I had the best education possible. Even if that meant keeping me in the city away from them since the age of 5. They have invested their entire life emotionally and financially to my education. Hope I can give back as much as I can.
HHS on Friday released a rule that allows LGBT people to be discriminated against in health care. On Monday, the Supreme Court issued a ruling that will likely kill that rule in court. #LGBTQRights #SCOTUS #PrideMonth #Health #healthcare news.bloomberglaw.com/health-law-and…
Monday's ruling focused on Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which bans discrimination in the workplace. HHS's rule Friday focused on the definition of sex in Section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act, which is based on Title IX.
Title IX prohibits sex discrimination in education and other activities that receive federal funding, but courts look at Title VII when interpreting Title IX.
As a Christian clergy who celebrates all the spiritual paths that lead to Love; as a woman who was unable to conceive and who grieved for years; as an aunt and grandmother who thinks children are precious, I am #ProChoice AND #ProLife
There is more than one religion practiced in this nation and no religious point of view should guide our legal processes. In fact Jesus, who is the mentor for my Christian faith, healed a woman suffering with a reproductive issue—a hemorrhaging womb—for twelve years #WomensRights
Jesus' model of compassion and love for those on the margins and those needing healing and health care drives my commitment to health care for all, and my pro-choice position. #WomensRights #ReproductiveRights #LoveTransforms
.@RepHardy This generation has no room for bigotry, discrimination, or the degradation of human rights. As an openly Gay Black Woman who served in the military, reaching the ranks of Lieutenant Colonel, I am calling you out.#BlueWave2018 #LGBTQRights #EqualityForAll #Enough (1/3)
This is 2018 and we will not retreat from the progress we've made toward FULL EQUALITY! #BlueWave2018 #LGBTQRights #EqualityForAll #RideTheWave (2/3)
As a pastor, I joined social justice advocates who fought to end DADT and we WON! As a member of Congress, I'll keep fighting the homophobic demagoguery seeking to turn back the clock on Human Rights and WE WILL WIN!#BlueWave2018 #LGBTQRights #EqualityForAll #RideTheWave (3/3)
