Stunned that @Scholastic Book Fairs is self-censoring the books in its “Share Every Story, Celebrate Every Voice,” which are predominantly by queer, disabled, & Black & brown authors. This is not sharing our stories--it's treating them as separate but equal.

At first I was a tree, now I’m petrified. Thinking all my wooden rings had turned to stone inside. I will survive...I will survive! 🎶 🎤

Today we cannot celebrate Women’s Equality Day because we are far from equal in our democracy. Let Congress know that you support women’s right to vote, equality in our Constitution, and reproductive freedom for all. Sign LWV’s petition ➡️ LWV.org/WID23 #WID23

Raising women’s voices through public office and the power of the vote is essential to both our reproductive rights and our democracy as a whole. bit.ly/3sszc2i

The freedom to vote is at the root of all other freedoms. Since the Shelby v. Holder SCOTUS decision, we have seen an influx of attacks on our freedom to vote in states across the country. Congress must work across the aisle in support of voting rights. #ProtectMyFreedomToVote

Today we commemorate the emancipation of the last remaining enslaved people in the United States. Juneteenth reminds us of the injustice and brutality of enslavement in our nation's history. The League is committed to building a future of progress and equity for all.
