Do you know where trans and gender-variant youth report feeling safe at school? The school library.
Every student in every zip code has a right to a school library staffed by a certified school librarian. Crucial to literacy, and also to life.

The library is an example of what we want the state to do: take resources held in common and distribute those resources to everyone equally. People love it by large margins. It’s so winnable. We can win it. If we’re looking for what we can win, put the library on the list.

If we're serious about improving literacy rates among American children we need to get serious about ensuring that every student in every zip code has access to a well-resourced school library staffed by a certified school librarian.
Want to get kids reading?
Add more school librarians.

I am proud of who I am and what I believe. I am proud of the work all of us are doing at
@ALALibrary
to strengthen American libraries. Ours are crucial and beloved community institutions that must be protected and expanded. That is the real story here.

It is deeply distressing to see violent, threatening rhetoric directed towards books and libraries, which are vital, inclusive spaces for communities across the country. Hard-working library professionals should not fear for their safety while doing their jobs.

Eight years since my father was killed in a Los Angeles crosswalk by a left-turning driver while out for a walk with one of his sisters. He would have been psyched for Ohtani coming to the Dodgers and amazed at the landscape of legal weed. Miss you, dad. <3

The threat here is not the book.
A police officer searched a classroom at a Massachusetts middle school for the novel “Gender Queer,” after receiving an anonymous complaint
The ACLU says they cannot recall any instances of police going to a school to search for a book

Support librarians at Western Illinois as they fight to prevent layoffs that would eliminate every faculty librarian at the school. WIU students deserve better! Every learner, every zip code!

Every couple years I have to haul myself up to the cancer center to get my bones scanned to see if there's still enough bone in them after all the early menopause and anastrazole baloney. Took about six minutes today but somehow also took it all outta me. Solidarity, survivors!

It is really hard to get stuff done. It just takes a ton a work and there really and truly are no shortcuts. Just staggered sometimes by how much work it all is and how long it takes. Good thing you win sometimes!
