It's that time of year!! The Material Aid and Advocacy Program supports over 2000 people every year who are experiencing homelessness/living in poverty. It's getting cold and we have urgent needs to support our community! Please consider giving and spreading the word!! 🧡🍂🧣

The evidence is beyond clear:

Harsher punishments for fentanyl won’t get fentanyl out of our drug supply & won’t save lives.

New Jersey needs to go forward, not backward.

A federal judge has ruled that former Kentucky clerk Kim Davis violated the constitutional rights of two same-sex couples when she refused to issue marriage licenses for them. Her refusal briefly landed her in jail in 2015. https://t.co/dLgtHmDVsq

Sexual misconduct is normalized in ultimate. Let me say it again. Sexual misconduct is normalized in ultimate.

"Convincing" homeless people to accept help... how, exactly? More potential for police brutality under the thinly veiled guise of responding to a crisis. We need to interrogate "the help" that we're offering (read: forcing on) people - it clearly isn't for them.

Working on my first qual research project 🎉! Interviewing UU ministers about their views on homelessness and discovered that there is a 1988 resolution re: "Housing for the Homeless." Curious to learn if anyone knows this exists... https://t.co/sIxe03wi3S

@NJ_Votes yesterday I was turned away from the polls and told to “come back later.” Fortunately I could, but you know who couldn’t? People who work multiple jobs, can’t afford childcare, use public transit. People who would have voted for @PhilMurphyNJ

Folks often ask me how they can support unhoused community members surviving poverty in public in #Bospoli #CambMA & #MApoli

Houseless people are the experts of their experience, know what they need & aren’t a monolith.

@academicworker & I made a flyer to help y’all out! 💓 👇🏻

@being_ulti In hs a bunch of guys asked me to say my name was Waffles so I did and then they called me Waffles

HOUSING IS A RIGHT NOT A REWARD!

Current goal is making sure none of my friends are the white person who takes over the mic at a BLM vigil talking about god knows what

Cambridge friends consider making comment in favor!!!!!

[Mike Connolly @MikeConnollyMA]

Across the country, #BlackLivesMatter organizers are calling for a reallocation of resources away from policing, and that's why I stand with #CambMA City Councillors @VoteJivan and @QZondervan in support of their policy order to begin the effort to #DefundThePolice in Cambridge.

[Families for Justice as Healing @justicehealing]

Still a few more hours to support our #DefundRacism movement:

1) Tell the City Council to cut the BPD budget. It’s a grant hearing today & they can choose not to authorize over $800,000 for BRIC.

They need to get the message we’re tired of a $400+ million police budget.

[Lee Nave Jr. @NaveWaveAB]

Our local spook agency (BRIC) decided to pull a no show at today's hearing determining nearly 850k in funding. Let's see how that works out. #bospoli

[Material Aid and Advocacy Program @MAAPMass]

Public testimony is Now. Tune in now to hear our loud voices demanding that we #DefundRacism #DefundThePolice, and #ThrowOutTheRacistBRIC so that we can #ReimagineCommunities and fund Housing, Healthcare, Education, and Youth Jobs.

[MuslimJusticeLeague @MuslimJustice]

When you get through this one, then go #DefundPrisons with our friends @justicehealing They made us the email script for y'all to contact City Council! Defunding police and prisons must go hand in hand --> $$$ to the community instead!

Should @BostonSchools be next? Interesting idea, esp after recent information sharing w/ICE. What say you @BCassellius @mtloconto @AlexOliver33 @hcoleman52 @BSCMemberONeill @lornariveraphd @Kim_Janey @LydiaMEdwards @CampbellforD4 @wutrain @juliaforboston @RicardoNArroyo? #bospoli

#Reuse is in our DNA. In one form or another we've been at it for 75 years. Today your GENTLY USED stuff make it into the hands of 2000 people experiencing homelessness or housing insecurity. (Your not-so-practical, fancy stuff is sold at our semiannual fundraising tag sales.)

[Nora Sullivan @NSully83]

The idea that Sacklers are single-handedly responsible for the opioid crisis is an incomplete narrative and obscures the larger reality of a decades-old racist drug war that goes far beyond a white, middle class prescription drug problem. BUT THIS IS A HUGE DEAL! Harvard, u next?
