A hidden civil rights fight: New book shares the untold story of the intersex movement (19thnews.org)
 

Intersex people have always existed. How they first started to find each other, build community and forge a movement against medical erasure is a story that’s mostly gone untold.

A new book aims to change that. “Hermaphrodite Logic: A History of Intersex Liberation” by writer, comedian and historian Juliana Gleeson was released in June by Verso Books. It’s a roughly 230-page dive into the very brief history of organizing for intersex rights from the 1990s to present day.

So far there seems to be mixed of research pointing to more people either being non-religious or religion having no importance in their lives. While the decline is small, it is still enough to freak out pastors.

Edit: Oh, it’s ‘only’ the progress flag, heh.

It's the pride and progress flags. The fact that this is baked into Gnome as of 48.2 means it's no longer restricted to just a month. That's exactly what the community needs.

Companies will strip and homogenize anything just to make a quick buck. Pride needs to be every day.
