The video of Ivor Otieno’s murder is out & the narrative created by the press is critical.

I’m calling for @RTDNEWS to remove @RTDMarkBowes from staff as he is anti-BLM protesting, anti-LGBT, anti-repro rights, anti-immigrant, anti-CRT, anti-1619 Project, climate change denier.

Recent reports show the situation in Texas youth prisons has reached a full-blown crisis. Kids are living in dangerous and inhumane conditions–trapped in their cells for up to 23 hours a day, using the bathroom in water bottles, and nearly half of them on suicide alert.

Today, we’re launching a new campaign. And it couldn’t be more urgent.

We’re launching the #FinishThe5 campaign to tell leaders enough is enough: it’s time to close Texas’s 5 youth prisons and invest in kids, not in further harm. https://t.co/1LJsAYkcN0

Seems like City Council is patting themselves on the back for ignoring public comment and also ignoring the proposal suggested by a group appointed to come with the CRB. This CRB is co-opted & is a mistake. I regret ever having supported one.

A better world is possible.

I had the opportunity to talk with @NBC29 about the Swords Into Plowshares project, which will turn the Lee statue into something good. If you haven’t yet, please take the survey and share your vision! https://t.co/CScaaC2v1V

"Now more than ever, we must invest in community-based strategies for genuine public safety that do not include law enforcement."

[kalia 🇵🇸 @realwizkaliaa]

"Under this proposal, funding that should be going into education, transportation, housing + directly to RVA residents will go to the police who surveil, arrest and incarcerate us more each year," she added.

"'Stoney is a phony and the cops are his cronies,' isn't just a chant from the 2020 uprisings, it's a reality in RVA” Harris said. https://t.co/1FPcj60CEw
