In the past month, I've been hospitalized twice and had #covid. While some couldn't be bothered to get up, nor stand up for my rights, I organized for my community despite the institutional neglect of the state.

Like me, @JustinForCT and I have #Tourettes, (and Coprolalia) and are Black elected officials in the public eye.
Join us at noon today on my IG Live ( jumaane.williams ) to discuss the #BAFTA incident from lived experience, how the n-word is a tic we both have AND how once again the harm to Black people took a back seat AND "if you were harmed" apology isn't enough.
