(2/2) When a woman is emotional, she’s “hysterical” and she’s penalized for it. When a man does the same, he’s “outspoken” & and there are no repercussions. Thank you, @serenawilliams , for calling out this double standard. More voices are needed to do the same.

Hate in all its forms, which is rampant throughout the United States, will not be tolerated. We stand with the Jewish community today and everyday, and echo the cries of the majority of Americans for common sense gun laws. This must end.

Australia’s women’s & men’s national soccer teams will earn the same pay as part of a history-making new pay structure. And all commercial revenues associated w/both teams will be split evenly. #EqualPay is possible! Looking forward to following the story.

The Matildas will share the same pay with the Socceroos for the first time under a groundbreaking deal to treat the two national teams equally.
