Jessie Simmons applied for a teaching job in a Detroit suburb in 1958 and didn't get it.
She was rejected 2 more times in 1959, while the district hired white teachers with less education – but she didn’t give up and got a job offer in ‘67.

Protesters gather against Florida AG's proposed "Alligator Alcatraz" ICE detention center
Florida's racist, migrant-hating attorney general James Uthmeier is proposing to build an ICE detention center on a remote and mostly disused airstrip in the Everglades. This is the Dade-Collier Training Airport, of which only runway was ever built. The project has been dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" and would be built directly on the runway.
This project poaches on Miccosukee land and would be damaging to the Everglades as a whole. This is on top of the horrific abuse and even torture of detainees by ICE and their detention contractors.
With this in mind, protesters including the American Indian Movement (AIM), migrant rights activists, and environmentalists gathered off Tamiami Trail (US 41) in the Everglades, presumably as close to the proposed site as they could get.

Iran: “Women, Life, Freedom” against the War
This statement by Iranian, Kurdish, and Afghani internationalist feminists argues that we must oppose the US and Israeli military assault on Iran while also refusing to endorse the repressive Iranian government.
Genocidal imperialist projects will never liberate us, nor will patriarchal nationalist regimes protect us.
