*European Citizens' Initiative for a Ban on conversion practices in the European Union*

Please share widely with everyone you know who is an #EU citizen!
Under 36 hours left to give a statement of support. Until end of 17. of May!

Total reached so far: 971.914

8 countries have reached the threshold so far, 7 were needed, but every other signation helps, also in case of fake or wrong signations, to still get over the 1 million signations.
Especially #denmark #Italy and #Sweden might still be able to reach over 100%.
France got over 900% now, signations from there are also still wanted!

An initiative a few months back on safe abortion rights had almost 1.2 million in the end, which was their target from the beginning and is needed to be safe.

If 1 million gets reached, the initiative is legally binding the EU to do something about a ban.

✡️ Today's Jew of the Day is Anne Landers!

Esther Pauline Lederer took over and popularised the the Anne Landers column in 1918. Anne Landers or was an advice column in newspapers across the US and Canada. The advice column dealt with a variety of topics, but primarily focused on advice and ettiquite. Under Leaderer's leadership, the Anne Landers advice column retained much of the kind, gentle support that it had, but also promoted many radical positions at the time, and even now, including support for "women's liberation", support for homosexuality and "the homosexual lifestyle", and being pro-sex work.

Leaderer worked on Anne Landers until her death in 2002.
