Oh my god. They removed "transgender" from the page about Trans woman Sylvia Rivera's page at the National Park service. "Sylvia Rivera began fighting for gay and _____ rights" WOW.

We remember Sylvia Rivera and Marsha P. Johnson, the transwomen who fought for our rights.

Americans are being told to stock up on canned food like the apocalypse is coming; meanwhile Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg & Ellison alone have $1.1 trillion. Are Americans ever going to rise up against their oligarchs or is hurting trans people too big a priority?

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯
