Cherise's story is heartbreaking. She’s facing immense challenges after a traumatic childbirth experience. Every donation can help her fight for justice and support her children. Please consider contributing or sharing her campaign. https://t.co/E7yScNfZGb

WTF Florida!

A white man walked into s Dollar General in Jacksonville FL & started shooting black shoppers in a "racially motivated" attack.

The same people who say “children need a mother and a father” just robbed a family of nine of their mother over her allyship. 🏳️‍🌈

This month in the US, people were shot for ringing the wrong doorbell, getting into the wrong car, using a leaf blower, delivering food to the wrong address, driving into the wrong driveway, and for asking a neighbor to stop shooting so a baby could sleep.

It’s the fucking guns.

NEW: Fox News poll finds most voters - including gun owners - favor:
Universal background checks (87%)

Requiring a waiting period for all gun purchases (77%) https://t.co/aVCgvUCOEL #FoxNews

[Rep. Justin Jones @brotherjones_]

Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton doesn’t stop at silencing legislators. Tonight, he had this grandmother arrested for speaking in the gallery against a bill to abolish community oversight boards of police that would undo the will of Nashville voters. This is not democracy.

Absolutely appalling! So much LGBTQIA+ living and spending in Miami/South Beach and Key West. In Orlando, and across the state. Where does this end? When internet access is banned in school and children can't have mobile phones? Gay is everywhere. You can't vote it away.

[The Associated Press @AP]

An expansion of Florida's "Don't Say Gay" law requested by Gov. Ron DeSantis has been approved by Florida's Board of Education. The expansion bans classroom instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity in all grades https://t.co/FPB3BPplpK

Going downtown, in any city, is something so many take for granted. This day needs support from corporations, volunteers, and donations. #formyblock

[My Block, My Hood, My City @mbmhmc]

On 708 M3 will host a citywide event where we aim to bring 1,000 youth ages 13-22 to explore downtown. Youth will receive $50 exploration cards to purchase some good food, cultural items and activities. We don’t want youth to say “I’ve never been downtown.”https://t.co/9LIRteooDf

Payton Washington is in the ICU after she was shot for getting in the wrong car in Texas

Kaylin Gillis was shot to death for driving into the wrong driveway in New York

Ralph Yarl was shot in the head for ringing the doorbell at the wrong house in Missouri

It’s the guns

[Ibram X. Kendi @ibramxk]

In Hebron, NY, a group of friends searched for a friend’s house. They pulled into the wrong driveway. As they left the driveway, a White man named Kevin Monahan came outside. Fired two shots at the car. Tragically murdered 20-year-old Kaylin Gillis. 1/

@ColumbusPolice and @CityAttyKlein where is the justice for Sinzae Reed?

[TizzyEnt @TizzyEnt]

Andrew Lester has been charged with shooting Ralph Yarl, but Sinzae Reed still needs Justice.

[Jennifer Nelson (she/her) @JenniferNelson5]

Why???

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

BREAKING: The Iowa Senate passed a child labor law before dawn today.

The bill lets 14-year-olds work 6-hour night shifts, 15-year-olds work on assembly lines, and 16- and 17-year-olds serve alcohol.

The Senate went through the night, and voted on child labor at 4:52 a.m.

Ralph Yarl is fighting for his life after a man shot him for knocking on his door.

Last year, a coworker randomly asked me to hand-deliver an antique violin across the country. I said yes, because why not. I had no idea what I was getting into, and now I need your help. A 🧵

NEW: Ralph Yarl, 16, was shot twice by a white man in Kansas City after accidentally ringing the doorbell of the wrong home. The man shot Ralph in the head through his glass door, and then when Yarl was already bleeding out on the ground, shot him again: https://t.co/w3tYQvcpyj
