Honestly... what's more unfathomable to me is that whoever continues to use these photos in their publications has allowed the designer to choose these photos and run with it (or even worse -- chose it themselves) 😑 Like HOW?!

[Laura DallasMcSorley @LauraMcSorleyDC]

Not urgent public policy view: can someone please commission new stock photos for early childhood?

This poor photo must be exhausted carrying half the reports and web pulls in the field.

A reminder that victory would be George Floyd being alive. Every day Black Americans worry if they will be next is another day without justice.

The fact that we know what the verdict SHOULD be but remain unsure of what it WILL be speaks volumes about our nation. We have work to do.
