What happened to #StephonClark was an utter tragedy.
It is infuriating but not surprising that Sacramento's right-wing DA is not seeking justice for the family.
Read this important piece by @ShaunKing on how we're going to change that:

Black Parkland students speak for themselves. A militarized school with police surveillance does not make them feel safer. It does the opposite.

As organizers with #TentCityATL, we are sending solidarity and revolutionary love to residents/@ObamaCBA who are pushing for a CBA from @BarackObama and the Obama Center. #CBANow

Jackson Park Terrace tenants, who live across the street from where the Obama Presidential Center is going, are being pushed out of their homes right now because of a $200 rent increase effective April 1 - imposed by Rev. Leon Finney (vocal opponent of a CBA) #CBANow#LiftTheBan
If you're available this Saturday at 9am, we'd love to have some fam volunteer to help clean up and garden in the Peoplestown community. DM us with any questions.

State Rep. Earl Ehrhart is sponsoring a bill that would negatively impact the lives of Black student organizers across the state. SB339 cannot pass.

There is a bill on the floor in Georgia that would allow white supremacists to rally on college campuses under the guise of "free speech" while punishing students who decide to protest them. SB339. As of Feb. 26, 33 reps have voted in favor of the bill.

Okay but in all seriousness, this is a blatant effort to crack down on amazing student organizers like @ATLisReady who consistently call out Georgia's universities on their bs and always show up with a powerful student-community coalition.
@Nia_Munashe The most unmet need is 0-30 percent AMI. Policy solution looks like a 1:1 low income ratio. Policy solution looks like the community trust fund we helped secure an initial 5mil for. Loving your critique. You should meet our team!
