Today is Red Dress Day. It is a day when we honour missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls & gender diverse people. We remember & uplift them. We support their loved ones. We recognize this disproportionate violence as a national tragedy. We advocate for change. #MMIWG2S

A black man was murdered after expressing hunger & throwing his jacket down on the subway. We immediately see his entire criminal history as if an explanation.
Yet legacy media withheld the name of the white man who killed him speaking only of his decorated career as a marine.

I don't know why this hasn't received more publicity, but this fifty-foot sculpture was unveiled recently in South Dakota.
It's called 'Dignity' and was done by artist Dale Lamphere to honor the women of the Sioux Nation.

My friend was caught in the crossfire where bear spray was deployed. She stumbled across the street blinded and in pain. 2 people came to help her. They grabbed some wipes and helped her clean her eyes, face and hands and made sure she was okay before she could walk again. These two people were unhoused living in a tent on the street. There are a lot more good people who are homeless than bad. ❤️

Here is that powerful testimony from Montana ICU nurse Joey Traywick (with a little bit of perspective from Dr. Kris Spanjian at the beginning).

I've noticed every show has an Emmy Campaign apart from mine, so this tweet should sort that out. Vote for #AfterLife you fucking idiots. Please RT this to 1 billion Twitter accounts. Bound to reach a couple of Emmy Members. Cheers.

Today reminds us that progress might be slow. It might take decades. But no matter what things might look like today, it’s always possible. Happy Pride month, everybody.

Fundamentally human beings are the same. Imagine being lost in some remote place and suddenly seeing someone coming towards you over the horizon. You wouldn't care about their race, nationality or religious faith, you'd be filled with the joy of encountering another human being.

People face difficulties in many parts of the world, but since all seven billion of us live on this one planet we should be united and stand in solidarity with each other. When this blue planet is viewed from space, there are no national boundaries to be seen.

We have been trying to bear witness, every day.
But we can only scream and Tweet so loudly.
This is the raw pain of our reality:
