Jews in New Jersey are especially alert now. They are re-thinking their weekend plans while standing up to Trump and Ye’s anti-Semitic remakes which have stoked up a virulent strain of Jew-hating. The FBI has issued a threat warning to NJ synagogues. Stand with us.
This is how it started with the Nazis in Germany. We need to defend ourselves, to say NO to the haters. We also need our allies. A criminal real estate huckster and a mentally ill rapper/fashion designer have normalized Jew-hating.
Adding this jackass, too, a Jew-hating (hate speech is NOT “free speech”) Brooklyn basketball player on the Nets. Apologize and go to a Holocaust Museum to be educated. #KyrieIrving my people stood with your people if you want to go down this road. aol.com/nets-suspend-k…
1. 🧵 Thinking of the family of #SarahEverard waking up to the horrible reality of her loss today. I recently spoke with a male interviewer about #GenderEquity & he was shocked when I spoke about not feeling safe as a woman. So I told him about my experiences... #TriggerWarning
2. When I was in college I was out for a run one day in the local woods. I heard a sound behind me and looked back and saw a guy running after me. No big deal right - he's probably out for a run too? Except he's wearing jeans, a suede jacket and boots...
3. I feel that stab of fear (that every woman has felt at some stage) & pick up the pace but I'm near the end of my session and tiring fast. He's gaining on me & I realise I can't outrun him (despite the fact I've represented Ireland in athletics) he's a man and he's just faster!

Over 1.1 million LGBTQ+ Americans rely on Medicaid for vital healthcare, so expanding Medicaid in Missouri was such a vital step for many LGBTQ+ Missourians.
However, in Missouri, there are still restrictions on gender affirming care for Medicaid recipients, that we must work hard to remove.
Passing MONA finally would also go towards strengthening public accommodations for LGBTQ+ Missourians.

Welcome to Night Two of our Legislative Focus week on LGBTQ+ Rights here in Missouri! Tonight, I will be discussing why we need to finally pass MONA and the benefits it will bring to our state, and to our LGBTQ+ Missourians. Please follow along.
First off, what is MONA?
MONA seeks to update the existing Human Rights Statute to include sexual orientation and gender identity, which would protect LGBTQ people equally under the current law.

Why does it matter?
MONA will protect over 180,000 LGBTQ+ Missourians from being refused employment, housing, and public services.
There are LGBTQ+ constituents in every county and district all across Missouri.
It’s simply, the right thing to do.

Night 5 of our Legislative Focus on Racial Equity - Tonight’s topic is all about how to be an ally! (Note, this is something I am not perfect at, but I’m committed in striving to be the best ally I can each and every day, and to never cease my education on being an ally).
I will referencing the following website to begin this thread - guidetoallyship.com
“TO BE AN ALLY IS TO...
1. Take on the struggle as your own.
2. Stand up, even when you feel scared.
3. Transfer the benefits of your privilege to those who lack it.
4. Acknowledge that even though you feel pain, the conversation is not about you.”
