Activism

When you are silent in times of injustice you have chosen the side of the oppressor 🏳️‍🌈 and ✡️. Black lives matter!

The job of a cop is to protect civilians. Here they do the opposite. When white people gather with AR-15s and get in the cops faces, when neo-nazis run into people with their cars- cops do nothing. Yet they seem to have no aversion to assault unarmed black protesters.

The fact Derek Chauvin continued to kneel on George Floyd’s neck even after paramedic Derek Smith found no pulse tells you everything you need to know about Chauvin’s intent and state of mind.

I will never understand why some believe that not thinking a person deserves to die just because they can’t afford healthcare makes someone “radical”.

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

Transgender people deserve to live their lives authentically and free from discrimination.

Today, on #TransDayOfVisibility, know that I see you, I hear you, and I am rooting for you.

You belong.

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

There is no morally upright or legitimate professional reasoning for Derek Chauvin’s actions.

Not a one.

Remember: He’s the person on trial.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Derek Chauvin is on trial.
America is on trial.
Our criminal-legal system is on trial.

George Floyd is not on trial.

No more silence.
No more impunity.
No more oppression.
No more harassment.
No more discrimination.
No more marginalization.

We owe it to the women who fought for gender equality to carry on the torch and work for an equal future.

An important victory!! #EqualityAct

[Team Katie @TeamKatiePorter]

No matter where they live, who they love, or who they are, every American should be able to live free from discrimination. As a co-sponsor of the #EqualityAct, which bans discrimination against LGBTQ+ people, I am proud to vote for its passage today.

I literally cannot believe this isn’t from SNL or The Onion.

So let me get this straight, people should let those in TX suffer because helping them would make Ted Cruz “look bad” since he chose to do nothing and flee to Cancun? Cruz brought this on himself by abandoning his constituents. AOC & Beto on the other hand, actually care.

[Activism @activist_just]

AOC is out here actually fighting for Texas while Ted Cruz abandoned his own state. Tells you a lot.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Wow.

We officially raised $1 million for Texas relief at 9:17pm.

Thank you all so much. 🙏🏽 I��m at a loss for words. Always in awe of movement work.

💯% of this relief is going straight to Texan food assistance, homelessness relief, elder care, and more. https://t.co/DSkTSqfbkZ

[Charlotte Clymer 🇺🇦 @cmclymer]

Congresswoman AOC, who represents parts of the Bronx and Queens in NYC, more than 1,500 miles away, is doing a hell of a lot more for vulnerable Texans than Texas Senator Ted Cruz.

[Activism @activist_just]

Yes, climate change is real. We need comprehensive environmental reform now to tackle this crisis because if we don’t do anything it’s only going to get worse. https://t.co/m8eUHnMHcB

Black essential workers have been on the frontlines protecting our communities.

Black educators have made countless sacrifices to continue the work of educating our youth.

And this year, the first Black woman was sworn into office as the Vice President of the United States.
