In case you haven't already heard, @GregAbbott_TX has signed SB 8 into law. It is set to go into effect in September unless the courts intervene. Here's a thread on what's going on and how you can support Texans getting abortions.
Today we release one of the largest databases on policing in America, expanding https://t.co/5ohCK3Yism nationwide. Compare 16,000+ police and sheriffs depts using data on police violence, accountability, funding and more. Get the facts. Hold police accountable in your city.

Business as usual doesn't work during a pandemic. @POTUS, time to urge @Pfizer@JNJNews & @moderna_tx to ensure they share the science & tech of the #COVID19 vaccines. Everyone deserves a fair shot at recovery. #JoinCTAP#PeoplesVaccine https://t.co/GWgjYQ2Ygi

How do we approach identifying & cultivating next-gen talent? @cheryldorsey shared on the virtual #SkollWf stage, "showing up, solidarity, ceding power & providing resources to those who look like the multi-racial society we want & need to build.” #ClosingTheDistance@SkollCentre
Must-watch in @nytimes featuring @LindaKayKlein on the rise and fall of purity culture. I was asked (told?) to sign a purity pledge at 17 and watched my peers sob over their forms in shame. I felt like what was happening was deeply wrong, this says why better than I ever could.
The @nytimes and @retroreport just released an incredible 10-min video on the rise and fall of The Purity Movement and the millions of wounded young people it left in its wake. https://t.co/Oc93u8ZZft
