Do not sit and worry yourself over problems you cannot solve as an individual. Some things can only be solved by collective action. Failure to realize this is a recipe for a visit to the psych ward.

Karmelo Anthony, a Black teenager, has been sentenced to 35 years in prison after being convicted by a jury with no Black jurors. Whatever one believes about the verdict itself, we cannot ignore the larger truth that many Americans are wrestling with: justice is still being administered through a system with a long history of racial disparity in sentencing and punishment.
This requires more than reaction. It requires moral honesty about who is deemed dangerous, whose pain is centered, and how differently accountability has often been applied in America. If we want justice worthy of its name, it cannot be shaped by race.

There is a new Democratic Socialist in Congress. DSA congratulates our member Chris Rabb on his election for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District.

We will be with Congressman Rabb every step of the way in the fight to abolish ICE, free Palestine and win Medicare for All.
