In a private cemetery in small-town Arkansas, a woman single-handedly buried and gave funerals to more than 40 gay men during the height of the AIDS epidemic, when their families wouldn’t claim them. -Source

AUSSIE SWIFTIES AND SWIFTIES EVERYWHERE
Please help this young girl Jorja meet her idol, I know I know, there are a million and one posts going around trying to get Taylor’s attention so they can meet her, but THIS STORY has hit home for me, she’s from Tenambit (half an hour from me) I have never met her, but when I read this I teared up.
Jorja is about to go deaf, and her live for Taylor and her music goes beyond anything. She wants to meet Taylor and hear her voice at her Sydney show one last time before she can no longer do so. So please everyone, share this, tag Taylor. Get Taylor’s attention, this little girl deserves it!

i’ve been a student teacher for a first grade class for two days and these are the amazing stories i have had so far. i love kids.
we have to help kids off the bus and to their classes if they’re kindergartners and don’t know where they’re going. one girl immediately reached for my hand as soon as she got off the bus and sang me the abcs and counted to 26. the highest she could go. then saw her teacher and ignored me.
all of the student teachers were waiting for the last arriving bus so we all formed a line to help the kids to their classes. upon arrival, one child immediately goes “why are they making a tunnel for us? are we famous now? i need to call my mom”
one kid didn’t have a name tag so i took him to the office to get one. the aides asked him for his name. “noah” he promptly said. “wait no. i’m david. noah is my brother.”
the teacher i observe read a book to them about a bird laying eggs. one kid raised his hand as soon as the book ended and yelled at the teacher because there was no daddy in the book and “i know how babies are made there must be a daddy”
one girl was quietly eating her snack during snack time and got up for no reason other than to come over and tell me “miss jones you are so beautiful”
the teacher tried to take a group picture on top of a climbing structure on the playground. 3+ kids fell off. they thought it was hilarious.
“miss jones do you wanna know my favoritest movie ever? avengers: age of ultron. it’s not for kids but i watched it alone so don’t tell my parents please i’ll cry”
two boys punched each other repeatedly and when asked why would you hurt each other, they quickly answered “we’re in love”
“can i call you mama cat?”
“i am your baby cat”
“meow”

Feminism has fought no wars. It has killed no opponents. It has set up no concentration camps, starved no enemies, practiced no cruelties. Its battles have been for education, for the vote, for better working conditions, for safety in the streets, for child care, for social welfare, for rape crisis centres, women’s refuges, reforms in the law. If someone says, ‘Oh, I’m not a feminist’, I ask, ‘Why? What’s your problem?’
