#TheLongMarch is Communist China's founding myth, the heroic tale that every Chinese child learns in school. Seventy years after the historical march took place, Sun Shuyun set out to retrace the marchers' steps and unexpectedly discovered the true history behind the legend.

GOP attacks on the ADA (like 2018’s "ADA Notification Act") still threaten hard-won access.
Progress isn’t a law - it’s enforcement. From sidewalk repairs to closed captioning, the march goes on.

💡 The lesson for 2025?
Democracy isn’t self-defending. From book bans to extremist rhetoric, we must confront hate early in our laws, our schools, and our communities.

Why it matters:
Pride began as a protest against state violence.
Ohio’s first Pride march wasn’t until 1981 (Columbus), showing how far we’ve come - and how far we must go.
🧭 The arc bends toward justice, but only when we pull it together.
