Utah's Republican Governor Spencer Cox, as he vetoes a ban on trans athletes passed by the state legislature, notes 75,000 high school athletes and only four are transgender. "Rarely has so much fear and anger been directed at so few."

Happy Bathurst Day! First race since 2008 I’ve not been at the mountain! My American fans, highly recommend watching this race. It starts at 8:15pm eastern. Biggest race in our part of the world, it’s going to be wild. You can watch through YouTube! #bathurst1000

2/ Inclusion is important, as is getting marginalized people into positions of power. But, you can’t simply trust that’s where the work ends.

Something Caitlyn Jenner, Sinema and Chappelle have in common?
They illustrate how marginalized people don’t have some kind of inherent moral clarity. We’re all quite capable of putting our boot on someone else’s neck.
The oppressed are quite capable of becoming the oppressor.
