A first-generation Californian and Imperial Valley native, Justice Patricia Guerrero's extraordinary journey & nomination to serve as the first Latina Justice on the CA Supreme Court is an inspiration to all of us & brings us closer to a judiciary that represents CA’s diversity.

Gun violence is a leading cause of premature death in U.S. It is a public health crisis.

By supporting peacemakers on the frontlines, we can be part of the solution to #EndGunViolence and create healthy futures.

Friendly reminder:

It’s still cheaper to alleviate poverty than to criminalize it.

This sad season of massive deaths is nearly killing me! From my precious Mom to five eulogies in one week, and now my very dear sister bell hooks! She was an intellectual giant, spiritual genius & freest of persons! We shall never forget her!
