- Abortion rights activist Dr. Henry Morgentaler dies at 90 – “Morgentaler emerged in 1969 as one of Canada’s most controversial figures when he broke the law at the time, and opened the country’s first abortion clinic in Montreal.” From Emily.
- What matters determines who matters – “The internet, and the social nature of passing along information on the internet, is broadening our definition of what matters. Shared identities, shared hobbies, shared political viewpoints, shared fandoms–all these matter because people say they do.”
- How important is it to be comfortable? Framing discussions on race and privilege
- Agenda 21 and the Jews – Southern Poverty Law Center report on anti-Semitic right-wing activists and their conspiracy theory that “green groups” are a plot for Jews to take over the world. From Critical Dragon1177.
