Happy International Women’s Day to my heroes, the revolutionary spine of our movement, and the fighters who embody our collective strength.
To our Sudanese women, our Kandakas. You are the frontline against both patriarchy and empire. We center your resistance today and always.
Robert De Niro says “I loved and supported Aaron as my son, and now I love and support Airyn as my daughter. I don’t know what the big deal is.”
He said this after his child Airyn De Niro publicly came out as transgender and began hormone replacement therapy.
In her first public interview, Airyn said seeing trans women openly sharing their stories online helped her realize it wasn’t “too late” to live authentically.
“There’s a difference between being visible and being seen,” she said. “I’ve been visible. I don’t think I’ve been seen yet.”
Airyn also shared that Black women have had a major influence on her journey, helping her embrace both her identity and pride in her heritage.
@OliviaPaloma__ I have yet to visit but it feels like Winnipeg is a place that is truly itself in the winter season and must be appreciated during that time. ❄️ have a wonderful stay!
