Some choice quotes:

We dismantle the patriarchal practice that requires mothers to work “double shifts” so that they can mother in private even as they participate in public justice work.

We disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and “villages” that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.

We foster a queer‐affirming network. When we gather, we do so with the intention of freeing ourselves from the tight grip of heteronormative thinking, or rather, the belief that all in the world are heterosexual (unless s/he or they disclose otherwise).

Does this sound like the long way to say "Transgender story time with kids" to anyone else but me?

To me a “collective” sounds too much like a plantation.

You’d think that Blacks would be quite leery about this, much less join in unison and proclaim that this is their vision on how their lives can matter.

It’s yet another neo Marxist organization that has co-opted the media for cover.

The feminist mantra that men are bad, women are heroic victims is more intersectional.

Men with conservative values are bad, women & blacks are heroic victims.

The recent SCOTUS decisions confirm they continue to win the culture war.
