@MartyForBoston we need to know where you stand? Why isn’t Juneteenth a City Holiday this year?? https://t.co/UorJFgrMVi

Now, let’s come together for the common good with empathy and respect for each other.

We did this—together.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

America, I’m honored that you have chosen me to lead our great country.

The work ahead of us will be hard, but I promise you this: I will be a President for all Americans — whether you voted for me or not.

I will keep the faith that you have placed in me.

Apology received. Resign.

[Andrea Joy Campbell @AJCampbellMA]

Racist comments are never acceptable, most of all by our public servants. This is not the first time people of color have felt disrespected by Mr. Loconto. I don’t accept this behavior from our School Committee Chair and neither should Mayor Walsh. Loconto should resign.

[Annissa Essaibi George @AnnissaForBos]

Mr. Loconto's behavior last night was unacceptable. I'm deeply appalled, personally offended, by his words. I watched & heard it live. It is unconscionable that he would mock & disparage our families. Our school communities & our City deserve more. It's time for his resignation.

[Annissa Essaibi George @AnnissaForBos]

There are times and events that are embarrassing, unprofessional, and also excusable (esp during this time), and then there are those things that require resignation. This requires resignation.

[WeAreTheOnes @WATOBoston]

@AnnissaForBos @mtloconto unacceptable use of language and disrespect for the names of the parents of BPS. “Shanaynay, shabooboo” are not words in a children’s book but the words of a racist. So, what book were you reading from? #bostonpublicschools #bostonschools #antiracist #boston

Certain things just don’t ‘trigger’ you the same when your vibration is high. Take care of your vibration.

What flows out of you comes back to you abundantly. The energy you give, is the energy to receive.

[Andrea Joy Campbell @AJCampbellMA]

I heard from too many constituents, including some City employees who didn't think this budget went far enough but essentially said “we’ll take what we can get.”

Communities of color have been “taking what we can get” out of this process year after year. That's not good enough.

Defund whatever the hell this is.

Scientists say the large blazes burning in Arizona are an ominous start to what could be a very active fire season in the West, as the pandemic, wildfires and climate change all converge to create a recipe for potential disaster https://t.co/Q3YNrgOMOM

WATO cofounder @adebukoladotcom believes every young person should know what Juneteenth is! STRAIGHT FACT.

@MartyForBoston @ewarren @MassGovernor WHERE DO YOU STAND? #HellaJuneteenth #JUNETEENTH2020 #blacklivesmatter

[Andrea Joy Campbell @AJCampbellMA]

Juneteenth should be a Citywide holiday.

Proud to be working with @Kim_Janey @juliaforboston and many colleagues on legislation to actualize this in Boston. Join us by signing on to this community petition ⬇️

Trump is right: If we stop testing, we’ll have fewer cases of corona. Just like if Black people stop recording cops, we’ll have fewer cases of police brutality.

[ABC News @ABC]

The corporate push to recognize Juneteenth comes as protests over the killing of George Floyd have thrust issues of long-standing systemic racism in the U.S. back into the spotlight. https://t.co/R46WYL0z1d

[WeAreTheOnes @WATOBoston]

@MartyForBoston holiday.
If we, the City of Boston, can publicly state the importance of Juneteenth but cannot recognize it as a City holiday can we really consider our City anti-racist? #blacklivesmatter #JUNETEENTH2020 #hellajuneteenth #wearetheones
