Georgia Senator Vows to Protect Girl, But Then Runs Away After Learning She Is Trans
During a visit to lobby legislators on transgender issues, Senator Cardin Summers (R) knelt down and told a child he would protect her. When he learned she was trans, he backed away.

4/n An article in LGBTQNation reports that two other false threats occurred over the weekend. It also reports that the false threat against my local library came from a coward - an "unknown man" - in Buffalo.

Language matters. Hate speech is violence. Those calling for our expulsion and extermination mean what they say.
We fight back.

(Yahoo re-published the People article in their "Entertainment" section. Violence and threats are NOT "entertainment" ...)
There's also an article in the National Review, which I will not link to.

1/n #LGBTQ / #Queer #News, #Brooklyn, #NYC:
Today's Cortelyou Library Drag Queen Story Hour was relocated due to a bomb threat
I learned of this via a Google Alert. That pointed me to an article in the NY Post (which I won't link to). I can find no other info about it.
I've reached out to Drag Story Hour NYC to see if they have a statement, news, or press release.
If anyone has other info about this event, please LMK.
"Drag Story," with a reluctant tip of the hat to #TaylorSwift:
🎵"Librarians, save me!
Censors trying to tell me what to read.
This book is difficult, but it's what I need.
If we stop banning books, we'll make it out of this mess.
Let's go to Drag Story Hour.
Baby, just say, yes."🎵
In den USA wird heute der Flaggentag gefeiert.
Das "Star sprangled banner" besteht aus 7 roten und 6 weißen Streifen, die die Gründungsstaaten repräsentieren, und einer blauen Fläche mit 50 weißen Sternen, die die Bundesstaaten der USA repräsentieren.
Würden die Amerikaner*innen die Menschenrechte und Demokratie doch nur so verehren wie ein bedrucktes Stück Stoff ...

Please cont to check in on your #2SLGBTQIA+ loved ones. Many of us are not ok. I’m afraid to be openly queer RN, much less a #queer person fighting 4 queer & #trans educational liberation, especially in an area folx falsely believe neutral.

To parents: if you use #TBlock as a #parentalcontrol solution, be sure to let you children have access to resources about #LGBTQIA+ identities! 🏳️🌈
Maybe they are questioning their gender and/or their sexual/romantic orientation(s) but they are too scared to ask their questions to you or anybody else. In that case, online resources can be very helpful.
