we’re so grateful for the strong reaction people are having to Vivian Wilson’s convo w Ella Yurman ❤️‍🔥 @teenvogue.com it feels worth noting that Elon Musk spent a chunk of the day of his daughter’s first cover story tweeting anti-trans propaganda mixed with anti-journalist memes

There's no overarching data, but from what I gathered, Trump's EO banning trans girls from sports likely impacts fewer than 160 high school kids. That's the highest office targeting really only a handful of children. Data here: public.flourish.studio/visualisatio... www.teenvogue.com/story/trumps...

Last year, the oldest historically Black Greek letter orgs moved to ban trans men from its ranks. Even without bans, @aiyanaish.bsky.social found that LGBTQ students don't feel welcome in some Divine 9 orgs. Some say they face a choice: Come out, or go Greek. www.teenvogue.com/story/hbcu-g...

RFK’s racist blathering harkens back to the yellow fever epidemic in Philadelphia where Black people—told we were immune—were asked to care for the perishing and neglected sick. 10% of free Black Philadelphians died.

Trump’s EO on care for trans kids uses inaccurate language and recommends policy based on junk science divorced from what top doctors say. It also relies on lies about the prevalence of this kind of care. @leximcmenamin.bsky.social and I broke it down: www.teenvogue.com/story/trumps...

I had the fortune of interviewing Cecile Richards in 2018. Her words then are especially important right now: "I think that if you’re not making somebody mad you’re not really trying hard enough in terms of really fighting for the things that are important." What a terrible loss.
