May Day will be a nationwide day of economic disruption, as we flex our collective power to demand an end to the oligarch-enabled Trump regime. The central action will be to engage in little-to-no economic activity on May 1 — that means no work, no school, and no shopping: maydaystrong.org

The reason I fight so hard for trans kids is because I was a trans kid myself. I knew who I was in the year 2000, 12 years old, behind my computer, using the name Erin. I wanted puberty blockers so badly. My body shifted and changed in horrifying ways that I suffered for 15 years over.

The time has come to withdraw your labor from a market that won’t bear you. Historically, it has only ever taken 3.5% of the population to bring an economy to its knees. 3.5% of the population of Wyoming is just under 21K. Organizing is hard. But we can do it.
