To mark the centenary of James Baldwin, I wrote a short essay for @TheLancet. On what he's taught me about responding to pushback. To beware of "strategic ignorance" and "the imaginary line of selective judgment". James Baldwin: ignorance, power, justice - www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Please share this, because this could help some folks with worry. For LGBT married couples, it's time to take steps to protect your marriage in case same-sex marriage is officially dissolved in the coming years. My husband and I did this when Roe V Wade was overturned, so I hope this is helpful. 👇
