@nc_governor, pardons are not humorous. Your decision to use your powers of #clemency on human beings locked in cages should not be joked about or parodied. We urge you to let our people go and #PardonPeopleNotTurkeys

Since the 1980s, Governors across the country have participated in an annual #Thanksgiving Turkey Pardon, "an often humorous ceremony in which the birds are pardoned, given a second chance at life after they are spared from ending up on a family's Thanksgiving table."

“What gets the statue removed is someone who is willing to take revolutionary action,” Blagrove said. “There is no ‘right’ way to tear down oppressive systems.” That's right. Thank you @NCCREDCJS & @EmancipateNC for leading the way.

Keeping in mind Ruth Wilson Gilmore’s observation that the prison industrial complex “includes the intellectuals, including myself, who make their living either designing or condemning the design of systems of punishment.”

NC state Rep. Tricia Cotham's first bill after switching to the Republican Party (creating a veto-proof supermajority) is a measure that would move the charter school approval process from the State Board of Education to a new charter school review board https://t.co/t3qR4b9hgc

🚨BREAKING NEWS: Medication abortion is still legal and available in our region. @ppsouthatlantic health centers across this region will continue to provide medication abortion to patients while they await further guidance from the FDA.

As @abreezeclayton has said a time or two before and I’ll reiterate change first states within city government followed by upward mobility to the state level. Look, no one said it would be easy but it is often left with an award. #ncpol #ncga

For my latest @TeenVogue column, I profiled the Union of Southern Service Workers, a revolutionary new worker-led union.

"Our goal is to transform our underpaid, unlivable, unsafe service jobs into good union jobs,” @RaiseUptheSouth's Jamila Allen says.

Rest in Peace and Power to Minnesota public school lunch worker Philando Castile, who would give kids free lunch, regardless of what they owed. He should be here to see this.

Nothing has changed since you made this statement @NC_Governor.. people ARE more important than property!! You MUST keep your promise to the people - who elected you - and keep Black & brown communities safe from state-sanctioned violence.

Veto House Bill 40 NOW! #ncpol #ncga
