Curious people have a lot of questions, and below you will find lots of answers! I decided to compile some of the awesomest basic resources (101s) out there on the internet about -isms and social justice so that you can find most of what you need in one easy post.

Thanks for the link, although How to Check Your Cis Privilege is basically a revision of the more…well…badly written How Not to be Insane.
