This week, we salute Mia Tretta who’s now a two-time gun violence survivor and a fierce advocate for gun reform. She speaks out because this doesn’t have to be our reality…and when women rise, we all rise. 🎥 @dadnails #thiswomanswork #wepersist

Kelley Robinson is leading the fight for LGBTQ equality at a time when our communities are under attack. As HRC president, she’s built coalitions that beat back anti-trans rhetoric, stop discriminatory policies, and help pass the Respect for Marriage Act. #ThisWomansWork 🎬 @elm100_bk

When the government targets your community, you don’t wait for rescue, you become the resistance. This week on This Woman’s Work: Jessica Villatoro of Siembra NC, turning fear into power and building real safety through community-led defense. 🎥 @elm100_bk #ThisWomansWork #WePersist

If leaders can invent a “war” and label people “terrorists” on command, none of us are safe. This isn’t politics — it’s the rule of law. Raise your voice. Demand oversight. Share this before the lies harden. #WADM

Congresswoman LaMonica McIver is facing up to 17 years in prison for doing exactly what she was elected to do: show up for her community. This isn’t just her fight. It’s all of ours. Follow @replamonica to support her work. 🎥 @elm100_bk #ThisWomansWork

With the shutdown over, Team Trump was back in action! Looking for more ways to suppress the Epstein Files. The victims deserve justice, and the public deserves the truth. #ReleaseTheFiles #waitadamnminute 🎥 @elm100_bk

Some women wait to be invited in. Others kick the door open and make room. That’s Tequila Johnson. 💪🏾 She co-founded @theequityalliance to build unapologetic Black power from the ground up. Since 2016, they’ve registered over 200,000 voters and stood up to anyone trying to silence them.

While some people may not know where their next meal may come from, this woman’s work is making sure no one goes hungry. @fracgram, led by Crystal FitzSimons, is fighting to end hunger & poverty, turning data into action, pushing lawmakers to treat food security as a right, not a privilege.

Hope isn’t passive—it’s action. We honor those who paved the way for progress by doing the daily work that hope demands. For Jane—and for every trailblazer—we PERSIST. #WePersist #janegoodall

They turned the White House into a podcast — now they want TikTok. We see their playbook: exploit fear, weaponize the internet, control the narrative. We’re not falling for it. Watch. Share. Call out their lies and spin. #WaitADamnMinute #WePersist

Cash bail punishes poverty — not crime. Trump’s call to end “cashless bail” is spin over solutions and politics over proof. Getting tough on crime means being tough on facts. Watch. Share. Spread the truth further than their lies. Subscribe to The PERSIST. Network on YouTube for more.

Trump bragged he created half a million jobs, but wait a damn minute - that's a lie! Watch Katie Phang break it down - unemployment up, manufacturing shrinking. Even Fox Business says it brutal! Trump inherited the world’s strongest economy and wrecked it in eight months. #waitadamnminute #wepersist

Trump says moving Space Command to Alabama is about saving money. But wait a damn minute, the Pentagon already warned this would hurt readiness and weaken security. Trump is playing politics, and he’s doing it in DC too, using soldiers like props. America deserves better! #waitadamnminute

Project 2025 is in full motion. From purging workers at the Fed and CDC to scapegoating trans kids, it’s all about revenge, hate and control. But we’re fighting back! Watch. Share. And Spread Truth Further Than Their Lies.

Bullshit accusations. A late-night firing. Another Black woman leader targeted. Trump’s attack on Lisa Cook is an attack on the Federal Reserve and on our democracy itself. We refuse to be silent. #LisaCook #NoKings #WePersist

August 18, 1920: Women won the right to vote. August 18, 2025: That right is under attack. From gerrymandering congressional seats to banning mail-in ballots, Trump and Republicans are trying to silence us. We will not go back. Our fight continues. #VotingRights #WePersist
