My mom or one of her relatives from Crete gave me a tiny silver labrys (or pelekys / πέλεκυς). I later learned lesbians claimed the symbol too.

Happy #InternationalLesbianDay!
I don’t remember learning that the pelekys also was the symbol of the fascist Metaxas, as it is an ancient Hellenic (actually — Minoan) symbol. metaxas-project.com/doube-axe-labr…
The Hellenes also gave the world Sappho, who gave us some of the earliest recorded or preserved love and erotic poetry about women by a woman.

Happy #InternationalLesbianDay!!!
There are so many lesbians in the world for whom I am grateful … even fictional ones. (If you’ve never checked out @DTWOF, do it!)

Everyone can support our lesbian siblings, like by cheering on the local Dyke March.

Lesbians make the world better. They just do. I don’t make the rules.

Imagine being born in a secular #democracy & agitating, organizing, & pursuing establishment of a #theocracy — claiming ‘persecution’ bc a majority want to keep Church & State separate. #USA #religiousliberty #Christian #Christianist #DefendDemocracy @americansunited @RNS
Clearly we don’t all agree on who the ‘us’ is in #USA, who belongs, who matters, who should vote, what I means to be, ‘an American.’ pewresearch.org/religion/2021/…
#FirstAmendment to the #Constitution mandates that the #USA shall have no official religion.

Despite this, about 20% say the federal government should stop enforcing the separation of church and state a that the Constitution was inspired by God. #DefendDemocracy

I would love to hear @POTUS @JoeBiden use the bully pulpit to articulate a redemption narrative around his shift in policy. #USA #drugs #law #policy #amends #repentance #repair
It is the right thing to do — the #USA is in a revolutionary, transformational moment, change is happening so quickly — and would be an example of accountability for past harms done, of #repentance and #repair, an #amends. #drugs #law #policy @POTUS @JoeBiden
Heavens knows former Pres. Trump used the bully pulpit to spew hate, slurs, mockery; he never accepted accountability nor showed contrition or #repentance, nor made #amends for problem behavior. #USA #drugs #law #policy #accountability #repair
