BREAKING: Minneapolis City Council members have announced their intent to disband the Minneapolis Police Department and invest in community-led public safety.
Yet more anthropology professors accused of sexual harassment. So many are complicit in this, when will this end? Or will we have more impassioned defenses of their work and character? #metoo#anthrotwitter
Minneapolis' Black communities and communities of color deserve deep investment in long-term, community based health and safety strategies. This has become all the more apparent in recent days and during the COVID19 pandemic. 1/x

@bluebirdtweets Hey there - how is @KKR_Co funding @CoastalGasLink's pipeline and perpetuating colonial violence on sovereign Wet'suwet'en land fit into KKR's Environmental Social Governance (ESG) policy and contribute to the @UN_SDG? The @rcmpgrcpolice remain occupying the territory!

50+ colleges and universities have released a statement condemning the unjust investment decisions of KKR, the construction of the Coastal GasLink Pipeline, and the vile human rights abuses Indigenous peoples are facing as a result. Protect Indigenous rights. Protect the planet.
It's Day 1 of our #HopkinsCanAffordIt campaign! Every day, for the next 7 days, we will be posting *choice* numbers which make it clear that a) JHU can afford to provide funding extensions & avoid furloughs/layoffs b) current austerity measures are unfair & unequally implemented
