Excited! First publication in @the_emancipator!

[The Emancipator @the_emancipator]

Work requirements have a “long and racist history” stemming from anti-Black ideas with roots in slavery — they have no place in a country that values the welfare of all its people, Nomi Sofer from @AntiracismCtr writes in The Emancipator.

Loved working with @ejgraff on this piece, with support from @AntiracismCtr. George Halfkenny is one of the storytellers in the film @ReentryVoices and the co-founder of @ThriveMA. #reentry #reentrymatters

[Voices of Reentry @ReentryVoices]

Last night we pre-screened Voices of Reentry with the film's storytellers, all members of @ThriveMA, and what a special night it was! The film will launch soon, and we're planning a series of community conversations this summer and next fall. Stay tuned! #reentrymatters

Today we honor one of the foremothers of Black feminist anthropology. Zora Neale Hurston was born January 7, 1891. An author, an anthropologist, playwright, folklorist and so much more.

#OTD in 1956, the Montgomery Bus Boycott prevailed, ending racial segregation on the public transit system. A federal ruling upheld the decision in Browder v. Gayle and declared Alabama laws requiring segregated buses to be unconstitutional.

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

Today is the birthday of Ida B. Wells, my spiritual godmother. The NYT once called her a slanderous and nasty-minded mulattress. They can’t defeat your work so they try to defeat your dignity, but that is something over which they have no control. Happy Birthday to a real one.

[Nomi Sofer @NomiSofer]

Honored to be listed as an author alongside these incredible researchers and advocates for true #equity and inclusion in U.S. social policy. #childrenofimmigrants

[diversitydatakids @diversitydataki]

We've been busy wrapping filming for the Voices of Reentry mini documentary, coming this fall, and we wanted to lift up some amazing #reentry stories we've encountered along the way. Please RT, share and add your own stories. A short thread (1/4).

@ProfKori You look beautiful! Those 9th graders are lucky to have you as a guest teacher. I wish my 9th grade daughter could attend a class with you!
