It is fitting to elevate #RosaParks on #TransitEquityDay & I’m reminded of Blk women who have held transit systems accountable from day 1. Just a few below, & I’d love to learn of others! Sister Harriet was manhandled on public transit @NedraDeadwyler @SPARCChub @waberosescott
Ida B. Wells had time that day.... @nhannahjones @MLK50Memphis

Love yourself first!

The big problem today is that most people don’t love themselves. Society never teaches that it is possible to love ourselves. Understand that unless you love yourself, you cannot possibly love another person.

#love #selflove #nithyananda #Inspiration
Only when you lose yourself to yourself can you lose yourself to others. We are taught that we can only love even ourselves if we have a reason. If we perform well, we love ourselves.

#selflove #love #nithyananda #InspirationalQuotes #WeekendWisdom #SaturdayMotivation
If we fail, we hate ourselves. We apply the same logic to others. We love them only because of something, never without a cause or a reason.

Dear Dissident Right,

If we're going to identify every woman who does something wrong as a #women and make her representative of all women we need to do same for men.

Why do we let men run our country when we know the role they've played in destroying it? #Churchill #Blair
White women are as anti mass migration as white men. Yet this ⬇️

If you think we're always nice and kind. Think again.
White women are not being protected by white men. On the contrary young white girls in the UK have been abandoned by just about everyone

100's of 1,000's of them, maybe half a million.

1. One question that jumps at me in this passage, Luke 10:25-37, is – Who are the robbers of our days? How do we describe robbery in our day ? The original robber is Satan who leverages the sin nature to destroy other people's lives (John 10:10). #Love
2. There are armed robbers who rob physically with weapons and there are also economic and political robbers destroying people’s lives. (James 5:4) #Love
3. Whichever way the robbers rob, they leave people wounded and hurt. There are people in our world today who are wounded. #Love

1. Love never gives up; love cares more for others than for self, Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have, Love doesn’t strut, Love doesn’t have a swelled head. (1Cor.13:4 MSG). #Love
2. It never ends well with selfishness when in a relationship with other people; the focus is on us and what we can get. Love and selfishness can never go together. (Phil. 2:3-4) #Love
3. In looking out for the interests of others, it is important to note that people are unique and have different needs which must be taken into consideration. #Love

@StalinIsBack
1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
