Jerome Maynor needs his medication! Allegheny Co. Jail (@ACE_Fitzgerald & @Allegheny_Co) has 3 choices: Provide his medication, transport him off-site for daily treatment, or transfer him to another facility capable of providing his medication. https://t.co/5lr2eAzW8L
In a city that is majority Black, folks are demanding that election officials stop the count. What happened to democracy? Or does it only matter when it benefits certain people? We matter! Black Voters Matter! COUNT EVERY VOTE! #CountEveryVote#BlackVotersMatter ✊🏾

Uplifting @Lagina_Gause's incredible research: Legislators more likely to support preferences of minority, low-income & grassroots protesters compared to higher-resourced protesters. Under certain conditions, pol. representation favors disadvantaged pops. https://t.co/7vfHlr5SUV
#BreonnaTaylor's murderers just got off & walk free. Shame on @kyoag & @louisvillemayor who failed Bre.
#JusticeforBre means divesting from the system that horribly took her life. @CouncilmanJames must take action immediately to divest from the LMPD and invest in communities.
Justice can't wait. Fire and arrest the Kenosha police officer who shot Jacob Blake seven times in his back in front of his children. #JusticeForJake https://t.co/vSU9fnbYwU
