@iamslickrick01 It's now fashionable to say we don't like Prince's dabbling in "hip hop," the definition of which is problematic and difficult to pin down on its own. It makes Prince fans feel like they're not stans. But reality is Prince created worlds with his music; genre wasn't part of it.

Mayor Mamdani tells graduates at Rikers Island “there will always be a place for you in NYC.”

“If today is proof of anything, it is that you have the power to move your life forward, even when everything feels like it is pulling you backwards.”

It's the Washington Generals dunking on the Harlem Globetrotters.

L.A.'s federal public defenders are on an unprecedented winning streak as the U.S. Attorney's office pushes weak protest-related cases to trial.

Join us October 1st at Loyola Law School as we explore one of the biggest drivers of wrongful convictions — eyewitness misidentifications. We’ll hear from two LPI exonerees and a memory expert as we work to improve this fraught evidence

#RobertRoberson's "case is now being seen as an example of the Texas death penalty system that is immune to accepting the evidence of actual innocence of a condemned man," said @DavidMartinDavi for @TPRNews.

BREAKING: Robert Roberson’s attorneys filed two motions this morning asking the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals to stay his Oct. 16 execution and to hear oral argument to review the mountain of new evidence in his case never reviewed by the court. https://t.co/M8qJGnplQm

@SixPacMacAttack @PerfectOurUnion Truly, it's hard to argue with that. I feel it too. I guess the trick is criticizing them and holding them accountable in a way that still affirms their inherent dignity--the way we'd want to be criticized and held accountable if we acted so hatefully to others. That's hard!

[Joe Trigilio @JoeTrig]

@SixPacMacAttack @PerfectOurUnion Yup. Spot on. It’s brutal. And it’s why the message of “do unto others” and “love your enemy” is such a profound and difficult one to follow. But it’s the path that leads to a better future as unfair and primally unsatisfying as it is.

Funding for innocence programs and forensic science reform helps uncover the truth—and prevent future injustices. Tell Congress that this work must continue.

Federal innocence and forensic science programs help prevent wrongful convictions and free innocent people from prison—but funding for them is at risk. Please help us urge Congress to protect this critical support. Call and we’ll connect you to your lawmaker in a few easy steps: 757-207-3390. https://t.co/8VGpwjOAv1

It is moments like this that you begin to understand why so many have demonized empathy and compassion.

They want us to care so little for others that we will ignore injustices being carried out against them.

It is in moments like these that love for others is revolutionary.
