Memorial: 14 lights beam into the sky from Montreal's Mount Royal to mark the 34th anniversary of the 14 women massacred by a gunman at École Polytechnique on December 6th, 1989. The anniversary has become the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women in Canada. #memorial#ViolenceAgainstWomen#Montreal#EcolePolytechnique#women#Canada#UofM
Right now Graduate Workers at the University of Michigan are on strike trying to get a living wage for the work that they do. This time trans healthcare is also under debate as many grad workers can not access the care that they need.
