A 10-year-girl in Delaware picked up “It’s Perfectly Normal” while at the library with her mother. When they came home, she showed her mom the chapter on sexual abuse and said, “This is me.” She was being abused by her father, and it was the first time she’d spoken about it.

The father was convicted, and the judge said, “There were heroes in this case. One was the child, and the other was the book.” Also a hero was the librarian who made this book available on the shelves.

The author wrote “I wish we never had to talk with kids about any of these aberrant behaviors. But we have to do so because kids have a right to have accurate information that can keep them healthy and safe. They need to know how to get help to make any abusive behavior stop.”

Community rallying for queer youth defence leaves #NoSpaceForHate ❤️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 Co-opting the language and strategies of Black civil rights leaders for the hate protest is intended to erase this ongoing liberation struggle.

ACB Network of Waterloo Region (@ofacb) 's Twitter Profile Photo

This language is intentionally chosen to exclude Black LGBTQ youth, and divides oppressed communities against one another, leaving us unable to protect and uplift all non-binary, 2S and LGBTQ youth. Our rights and communities are under attack.

Pride began with Black queer protest. We have always defended our communities, and always will. We make us safe. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
