Without protests, we would still live in a segregated country.
Without protests, women would still be second class citizens.
Without protests, the LGBTQ+ community would still be hiding their identities.

See that teeny, tiny sliver of 1%? That’s the % of middle income renters that are severely rent burdened. Keep this in mind when policymakers and lobbyists spend outsized time talking about rental housing needs for middle income people. #TheGap24

STUDY: Cars are rewiring our brains to ignore all the bad stuff about driving. “A new study reveals how unconscious bias leads us to neglect negative externalities of driving. You may call it ‘car brain,’ but this research team calls it motonormativity.” theverge.com/2023/1/31/23579…
