The @nytimes released a leaked design of the Harriet Tubman $20 bill, which was produced by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

The new bill, which would be replacing 7th U.S. president Andrew Jackson, was supposed to be revealed in 2020 for the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. However, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin stated that the bill won't be released next year and will not likely be in circulation until 2028.⁣

Pride exists because of a woman.
Pride exists because of a black woman.
Pride exists because of a black trans woman.
Pride exists because of a black trans woman who was a sex worker.
Pride exists because of a black, bisexual trans woman who was a sex worker that threw a brick at a cop.
Pride exists because of a black, bisexual trans woman, who was a sex worker, that threw a brick at a cop and started a riot against the state.

Her name was Marsha P. Johnson.

Don't lose this month in rainbow capitalism and unabashed racism because of the privilege of being white while queer.

If you aren't supporting the queer people of color, trans women, and queer sex workers, you aren't celebrating pride, you are celebrating rainbow capitalism and police brutality.

From @thetrashwalker:
Some of the 18 boxes of tampons and pads I found in one @cvspharmacy’s trash a few weeks ago.

To me, it’s inevitable that we will win this fight. CVS can’t handle the bad publicity, especially as it tries to position itself as a community-centric healthcare provider. Our planet cannot handle all this unnecessary waste. And there’s such a clear solution—donate these products to those who need them through shelters and other charities.
•
To me, it’s not an issue of *if* we will win but *when.*
•
And it seems that CVS understands this too, and is implementing big changes. But until they make a public commitment to require all ~10,000 stores to donate, we need to keep up the pressure

Abortion pills are the future of #choice and safe self-managed care. The only reason we don't have better access in the US is because of politics—but this is changing NOW, and the power is in our hands! Check out @plancpills and their Report Card of online pharmacies, including new international telemedicine provider aidaccess.org. Support the movement by sharing the revolutionary and empowering information at plancpills.org, and by donating to their bold and empowering communications campaign at plancpills.org/donate.

At risk youth and particularly girls are over-mentored, and under-pipelined into job opportunities- especially into the creative industry.
⚡️
Traditionally brands and media invest solely in visual representation, which falls short in listening to and acting on the thoughts and opinions of young women of color. ⚡️ We have to take ownership of not just inviting underserved girls to observe the industry, we need to provide a seat in the conference room and give their voice a chance to be heard. We cannot accomplish that change until we replace field trip tours and observation days with real internships, and job training programs.
⚡️
@dynamicgirls_org is a Non-Profit youth development program in Los Angeles, focused on connecting girls from socioeconomically underserved communities with brands and leaders in the Creative Industries. They offer opportunities through internships, classroom learning, job placement and college admissions services. Check them out! Get involved!

🌈Happy Pride Month🌈 by Issue 06 cover artist and pal @loveiswiseillu
