Until Black people can live without fear that agents of the state will murder them with impunity, there can be no justice, there can be no peace. #BlackLivesMatter
Forever grateful for this sisterhood & the opportunity to discuss the Black maternal crisis.
Black women are up to 4 times more likely to die from childbirth complications.
This issue is personal. Thank you @VanityFair for allowing us to highlight this healthcare crisis.
#JacobBlake was shot 7x in the back by #Kenosha police. In front of his beautiful babies.
Save the “bad apple,” more training, “don’t resist” narratives. This shit is the inevitable outcome of policing.
Sending strength, love & solidarity to him & his family.
7 times. #JacobBlake was shot in the back 7x, in front of his kids, by police officers in Kenosha, WI.
Let that sink in.
We must have justice for Jacob.
My thoughts & prayers are with him, his family & those affected. #BlackLivesMatter https://t.co/9KM8YZPR16
My heart breaks at the horrific shooting of #JacobBlake.
His three young children saw their father get shot several times - I pray for them and their father's recovery.
We need a full, transparent investigation and the release of the officer body camera footage, immediately.
This is the official GoFundMe from @PaulyG103 and Jacob Blake’s family. No other GoFundMe is legitimate.
All donations will go toward Jake’s medical costs, legal fees, support for his children, and therapy costs. Please share and support #JacobBlake https://t.co/IT77hsutBm
55 years ago today, we were beaten, tear gassed, and trampled by horses. I thought I saw death. I thought I was going to die. I don't know how I made it back, but I know we cannot rest. We cannot become weary. We must keep pushing and pulling and find a way to get in the way.

Our civil liberties are on brink.
This is not a drill. There is no excuse for snatching women off the street and throwing them into unmarked vans.
To not protect our rights is to give them away. It is our responsibility to resist authoritarianism.
