Three police officers went to an *elementary* school in Tennessee & arrested four Black girls.

One girl fell to her knees. Another threw up. Police handcuffed the youngest, an 8 yo with pigtails.

Their supposed crime? Watching some boys fight — and not stopping them. (THREAD)

Studies show that people of color workers spend more time commuting than white folks—due to gentrification, lack of public transport infrastructure and redlining, people of color lose about a month per year in commute time. It’s why so many of us are attached to remote work.

So my high school had a black valedictorian and salutatorian AND THEY WERE FEMALES ‼️ and now since a white person was mad about it. They decide to call the girls back and let them know that it will now be two valedictorians and salutatorians. This is wrong!

Before his name became a hashtag, #GeorgeFloyd was a human being who mattered.

A brother, a father, a friend. A person.

I’m praying for his family today.

I was the first/only Latina journalist to publish a reported book about the Trump administration. Retweet if you think the publishing industry should diversify its political authors.

I took the liberty of editing the New York Times headline:

[king stia @vastiapascale]

It’s absolutely FREE to retweet a black author trying to achieve 200k book sales during the pandemic. Self love, love, betrayal, depression and 30% goes to charities/nonprofits. Every retweet helps me get closer and closer to my goal. Thank you! 🙏🏾

Only one officer is criminally charged - for wonton endangerment - in the shooting death of Breonna Taylor on March 13.

None of the officers will be charged for the actual death of Breonna Taylor.

#DawnWooten is a national hero. Forced sterilization of migrants is a crime against humanity. Telling the truth takes courage. Dawn stood up to say this is wrong. Thank you dear one for being a #DemocracyDefender. Thank you to @ANGELICABECE for this beautiful art.
