Ben and Jerry's Black Maternal Health Week Campaign Puts Incarcerated Black Mothers at the Center The ice cream brand's viral Instagram carousel opens with four words: 'The US Is Failing Black Mothers.' Its partner, National Bail Out, has reunited more than 1,000 Black mothers with their families…

The U.S. is failing Black mothers, and even Ben & Jerry's is calling it out. Black women are nearly 3x more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes. This is a crisis we can't ignore. Every Black mother and her baby deserve a safe, healthy pregnancy & a chance to LIVE. That is the bare minimum.

It's been 7 years since 14-year-old Nigel Shelby died by suicide after being relentlessly bullied for his sexuality. He asked for help. The school officials responsible for his safety failed him. We carry his memory forward. Rest in Power, Nigel.

For a Boise family of medical providers, Idaho criminal trans bathroom ban was the last straw • Idaho Capital Sun After the Idaho Legislature and Gov. Brad Little pass a criminal transgender bathroom ban, medical providers with a trans kid plan to move.

Two physicians and their trans kid are one of thousands of families moving states because of politicians targeting trans people going about our daily lives.

Anti-trans laws are forcing families to upend their lives, but every state should be a safe place to raise every family.

I know, it's done to death but if President Biden had blundered his way into a needless war that then left US service members stranded in hostile waters with food supplies running low, the right would've stormed the White House to tar and feather him

It’s worth watching the entire video. I had blocked her many years ago at the old place, but she’s spilling the beans now and detailing how oligarchs and corporations pay right-wing influencers under the table. There need to be hearings about this and the huge loopholes permanently closed.

No, that's exactly what Chappelle was doing and it's why trans people criticized him for doing it.
