“Today is a day of mourning for the children of Chicago. Their education has been hijacked by an unrepresentative, unelected corporate school board, acting at the behest of a mayor who has no vision for improving the education of our children. Closing schools is not an education plan. It is a scorched earth policy. Evidence shows that the underutilization crisis has been manufactured. Their own evidence also shows the school district will not garner any significant savings from closing these schools.

This is bad governance. CPS has consistently undermined school communities and sabotaged teachers and parents. Their actions have had a horrible domino effect. More than 40,000 students will lose at least three to six months of learning because of the Board’s actions. Because many of them will now have to travel into new neighborhoods to continue their schooling, some will be victims of bullying, physical assault and other forms of violence. Board members are wishing for a world that does not exist and have ignored the reality of the world we live in today. Who on the Board will be held responsible? Who at City Hall will be held responsible?”

- Chicago Teachers Union president Karen Lewis commenting on today’s news that the Board of Education has voted to close 50 Chicago public schools.

While only around 40 percent of children in Chicago are black are Latino, 90 percent of children whose schools will be shuttered are black or Latino.

nepteta:

porn is intimately tied into rape culture and patriarchy and banning porn doesn’t solve anything in and of itself, just like drug bans don’t solve poverty

not to mention how blanket porn bans are often just obscenity bans which disproportionately target the expressions, especially sexual expressions, of queer people (since our very existence is obscene)

plus the whole issue of porn vs art

the porn industry is evil but blanket porn bans don’t work on multiple levels

porn’s a symptom, not a cause

yes this is what i meant to say

Isn’t it interesting that so many people’s first priority when it comes to equality is violence against women?

Lady Captain America and Lady Thor

Art by Yasmine Putri

One of the few female versions I’ve seen that portray the strength of the characters instead of being a vehicle to show Cap with a midriff or Thor with tremendous cleavage.

Hell yes.

These are very cool. :)

“[I had a friend ask me, ‘Are you gonna go on] SNL and you’re going to do like a skit about the paparazzi and shit and like humanize yourself?’ I ain’t here to apologize to no motherfuckers man. It ain’t about me humanizing myself. At what point did I become unhuman where I had to turn myself back? Or maybe I was demonized. Or maybe I was treated inhumane and not human in that kind of situation. I ain’t no motherfucking celebrity…Hell nah I ain’t doing no motherfucking SNL skits, this my goddamn life. This ain’t no motherfucking joke. That’s it. Stop that shit right there.”

All of the girls who take the train by themselves and get to stare at their reflection in the window when they’re in a tunnel, and get to make men uncomfortable, and get some time to think about how no one really means anything, are all the same person. The yellow colour they put at the edge of the platform to remind you that you probably don’t want to die yet is the same yellow colour everywhere you go
