Must Reads! August 31, 2013 Sarah Moon 

Here are some important recent posts that you shouldn’t miss:

*“Why I’m On Strike Today: I Can’t Support Myself On $7.85 at Burger King,” by Willieta Dukes

Burger King says they can’t pay employees like me higher wages because it would force them out of business. Yet last year it made $117m in profits and its CEO took home $6.47m. It would take me 634 years to earn that much.

*“Turning on a Dime: False Equivalence in Purity Culture,” by Dani Kelley

It is a goddamn lie that a person cannot stop themselves from having sex if they have been engaging in hot and heavy sexual contact.

*”A Letter to My Sisters Who Showed Up for Islan Nettles and Ourselves at the Vigil:” by Janet Mock

You still dare to be seen, to live your life, to share your truth. You and I know that we are not stereotypes or statistics, that our lives are not disposable and that we deserve and demand so much better.

*”When Your (Brown) Body is a (White) Wonderland,” by Tressie McMillan Cottom

*”Pacifism as Privilege,” by Jordan Mattox

Our choice for peace is on the back of violence and in the absence of direct violence to us.

And here is the newest member of the Moon-Kobylanski family, Pickle!:
 I Am Not A Rose.
