amypoehlersmartgirls We are so excited to partner with #BlackMammalogists Week! Our inauguarl panel is Monday 12pm PT on Facebook live. Link in bio to RSVP (free). Leave your questions for the mammalogists in the comments using #SmartGirlsAsk What is the purpose of Black Mammalogists Week? To provide opportunities for current and aspiring Black mammalogists across the Diaspora to form conscious, fruitful connections, in addition to illuminating historical and present-day Black contributions to the field of Mammalogy. In our ideal future, young Black people of all backgrounds will realize that they are not only welcome, but needed and vital, to the future of this field.

She has court today! We know the immigration system is not on her side. Let’s tell ICE that we are watching. We have Sza Sza’s back. #FreeSzaSza 1. CALL 720-873-2899 and use the following script: “Hi, my name is ______ and I am calling to ask you to release Jennifer Conner (A #095130504 ) to her family in Philadelphia. The Aurora Detention Center is not safe for a 54-year-old Black transgender woman, especially during a global pandemic. On her September 11 court date, Jenn and her community asks that her judge and the DHS attorney see the human behind the docket number. Will you help end her indefinite detention in immigrant prison?” 2. Sign the petition at the link in bio. 3. Share these graphics! Follow @officialblmp for more updates!

amypoehlersmartgirls Repost from @littlelobbyists • 38/100 - Samuel, age 9, Connecticut To Sam, every day is the “best day ever.” He is kind and funny and always has a huge smile on his face. He loves to play with action figures, race cars, and spend time with his friends. Sam also has #VanishingWhiteMatterDisease , a very rare untreatable and terminal brain disease which causes the white matter in Sam's brain to disappear over time. Sam enjoys school, where he gets the therapy he needs and sees the friends he loves. He uses a wheelchair to get around. Sam’s mom Allyson says: "After four years on the waiting list, we got a #Medicaid waiver. It means everything. Sam needs equipment – wheelchairs, activity chairs, bath chairs, standers, lifts – much of which is not covered by our primary insurance. Without Medicaid, or with cuts to Medicaid, our family will not be able to afford to properly care for him.” Medicaid covers things most insurance does not – so kids like Sam can live at home, where they belong, with the families who love them. #MedicaidMatters . To our families, it means everything. * * * * * * * * * * * * Do you have a child with complex medical needs and disabilities?
