.@CACorrections was found GUILTY of violating the 8th amendment rights of incarcerated people at San Quentin, after a TRANSFER caused the largest COVID outbreak in the nation. Further transfers will only continue this “deliberate indifference.” We need #ReleasesNOTTransfers

⚖️ Systematic racial inequalities in our criminal legal system means that 3 out of 4 men leaving CA prisons are Black, Latino, or Asian American. CA disproportionately locks people of color out of the voting booth.

🗳️ This Nov, vote #YesOnProp17 !

@NoelGallo5 @lorenmtaylor: I’m a renter in Oakland, and I’m urging you to pass strong upgrades to Oakland’s tenant protections today. With COVID intensifying the existing housing crisis, pass laws that protect tenants of color.
