I Fucking Hate That Tweet That's Like "these Women In Mexico Tried To Burn Down The Presidential Palace

I fucking hate that Tweet that's like "these women in Mexico tried to burn down the Presidential Palace and then a few days later the government gave in and legalized abortion," it's so insanely condescending for you as someone from the US to look at the (massive and militant!) Mexican feminist movement and their decades of life-threatening work and be like "they rioted once and then their problems were solved"

That's not what happened at all! The photo going around with that Tweet was taken at an International Women's Day protest, months before the Mexico City abortion protests! They didn't just show up one day! A national court ruling decriminalized abortion but it is still illegal in much of Mexico, and activists are still fighting for it right now!

Baymax in the new Baymax! show buying pads for a girl who got her first period and getting help from people, including a trans man.

Some people are really mad about this, when he is literally a health care robot interested in people's physical and emotional needs.

I do find it weird that all of the sudden it's boycott the 4th of July now. Like it's for a good cause I guess but it's strange that all of the sudden it's boycott the 4th of July.

Literally a lot of women want to boycott it now, despite minorities having disparities with the 4th of July long before the roe v wade overturning. I don't know it just kind of seems too centered on just white women wanting to boycott the 4th now.

It kind of reeks of ignorance in a sense that white women are just now boycotting it because "we can't celebrate independence day when we as women just lost our own indepedence". They didn't really care to see other issues with the 4th until now. (from what I can tell)

Like don't get me wrong it is for a good reason. But it's completely ignorant to just boycott the 4th now because of reproductive rights, when minorities and women have been getting screwed over by America from the very beginning.

We Cannot Celebrate Independence Day When We As Women Just Lost Our Own Independence.
We Cannot Celebrate Independence Day When We As Women Just Lost Our Own Independence.

We cannot celebrate Independence Day when we as women just lost our own independence.

Boycott the 4th of July and turn it into a day of action for reproductive rights. We WILL take back our rights.

Our lives and liberty depend on it.

not to add to the doom posting, but:

the Supreme Court will soon review the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act.

the ICWA protects Native children from being adopted out of their communities, and itโ€™s under fire bc a white couple is suing on the basis that itโ€™s โ€œracial discriminationโ€ that they canโ€™t adopt a child away from her family, (Brackeen v. Haaland). itโ€™s probably not going to end well.

I encourage you to do your own research, but the point of this post: the Lakota Peopleโ€™s Law Project is assembling a brief, and coordinating with other legal teams on this, including working with the original author of the ICWA.

the Lakota Peopleโ€™s Law Project have a petition you can sign here, and letโ€™s be real, what they really need is donations, (especially since theyโ€™re going up against a campaign funded by oil conglomerates).

iโ€™ll put source links in the replies so i can keep them up-to-date.

Completely agree, I don't like celebrating the 4th and Thanksgiving personally either because of it's history. I just found it quite strange that all of the sudden people started protesting the 4th when their rights were being taking away, and not because they don't make sense as holidays to celebrate.
