this is fucking insane. two different cases in Florida where pregnant Black women were forced into video call court proceedings, in the middle of labor, laying in their hospital beds, because their doctors chose to go after them for refusing cesarean sections.

the first woman was able to convince them to let her continue laboring unless it became medically necessary, and ultimately chose to go through with the C-section of her own accord later.

the second woman was completely denied autonomy and the C-section was performed against her will.

"Stop forcing pregnant people to have cesarean births.

Take all necessary steps to end discriminatory policies and practices based on sex, gender, pregnancy status, and race.

Discipline the doctors and hospital staff who ignored Doyley and Bennett’s concerns and coerced them to undergo a court-ordered C-section against their will.

Publicly acknowledge and provide financial relief for the harm UF Health caused to the Doyley family and Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare inflicted on the Bennett family."

I write these words with tears streaming down my face.

All the children of the world are happy and enjoy life, except us. We have not been able to reach even our most basic rights: a school, simple food, snacks, a playhouse, and some simple requirements that are easy for the world to obtain, but unfortunately we have not been able to reach them.

Please don't abandon us, share and donate Now

but like…Becky, of course LGBTQ+ people existed before Stonewall. We’ve all existed since the beginning of time. But the movement got a shock to its senses, a jump-start, a rocket-into-space when that glass shattered via Marsha P. Johnson, and when Sylvia Rivera was up on-stage protesting guess who was on the sidelines heckling her?

Without a trans black woman, LGBT+ rights would not exist. Never forget. Never “pay it no mind”.

Below are a few sources accepting donations to provide food, aide, and more to those affected. If you have any means to donate please do so. The Lebanese Red Cross - provides life saving medical services across the country

A mutual of mines really needs help to have their basic needs met, to stay housed they need $90 every day and for a months stay they need $1773. And if you want to help Cori get food here's a link to their Amazon wish list please reblog

the new content filters and the flagging system require every reblogger to appeal independently from the poster.

What is happening?

With the latest tumblr content filter updates, every reblog is flagged independently from the original post without the OP knowing. This means that if your post is reblogged by someone and that reblog is flagged, you won't know. The note count will go up, but the note is hidden: you can't see it on the rebloggers blog or any other reblogs branching from the flagged post.

What should I do?

Every reblogger needs to appeal for their own reblogs. Thankfully the review time on Tumblr's side has been fast, usually in a couple of hours they restore the post. If you can notify the OP, grand. If you have time, leave a support ticket, choose feedback and tell them why you think this is a bad model.

Why and how should I do it?
