Injustice in black and white

[Abraham Cruz @SpartanAC23]

See the work we do at @acdivoca!

Lori Laughlin was just sentenced to 2 months in jail.

Earlier this year, the Manhattan DA recommended one year jail for a man who stole cough syrup and toothpaste from a Duane Reade.

There are two systems of justice in this county and this is yet another example.

Bill Barr is aggressive towards Black Lives Matter protests but not armed right-wing extremists threatening to lynch a Governor.

Why? Because white men with swastikas storming a Capitol are part of Trump's agenda while people of color protesting injustice are seen as terrorists.

Rep @AOC: "I do not need Rep. Yoho to apologize to me. Clearly he does not want to. Clearly when given the opportunity he will not & I will not stay up late at night waiting for an apology from a man who has no remorse over calling women & using abusive language towards women."

Remember when Bernie Sanders had to spend like a week apologizing for saying Cuba had a pretty good healthcare system?

Good times.

When I answered the phone, the caller began by asking:
“Is there a ProPublica Michigan?”

She had a story to tell, about a teenage girl who was in juvenile detention for not doing her online schoolwork during the pandemic. The girl was her daughter.

Police should not have more funding than teachers.

One of the most amazing parts of the massive protests in DC is that people have self organized and set up a ton of these tables where they give out free food, water, masks, hand sanitizer and there are also medics in case someone gets sick. We keep us safe. #BlackLivesMatter

[Matthew A. Cherry @MatthewACherry]

Here's the entire interview with @kimlatricejones and David Jones Media. Take a second to watch the whole thing because she makes even greater points throughout the entire interview than she does in the viral clip that is circulating. Her Monopoly comparison is spot on.

June 6, 1944. Largest ANTIFA operation in history.

I'm sorry, I wish I could find joy in this but it just feels performative as hell.

Mayor Bowser's proposed budget for FY2021 includes an additional $18.5 million for police and a $16 million cut to housing assistance.

We need real change & that starts with the budget, not this.

Police Didn’t Spend Millions On Awesome Tank Just To Let Protests Stay Peaceful https://t.co/ZsC4Xc6Pcj
