Today is the one year anniversary of the death of my mother. I wrote this shortly after she died, and in a year in which our reproductive rights are more fragile than ever, it has even more resonance for me now. #dobbs #abortion https://www.salon.com/2022/01/01/my-mom-finally-made-her-choice-after-a-lifetime-colored-by-the-one-she-wasnt-allowed/

The Holocaust did not begin with killing; it began with words.

Genocides do not start with mass murder. That's where they end up.

Genocides & other mass atrocity crimes begin with words - specifically, with powerful people dehumanizing a minority.

Once they are seen as less than human, anything is possible, even mass murder.

👉 You can speak out loudly today for the rights of others, or you can stay silent & wait for tomorrow, when your rights will be taken away too.
