@BLoveSoulPower Pardon me. I'm stepping away to scream obscenities and nonsense for the next several hours.

@NOLAed4Liberat1 Just, wow. So, will they arrest those children whose families refuse or cannot?? School-to-prison pipeline is insidious and will adapt, because... racism, capitalism. School (at home)-to-prison pipeline.

[Allison Brown @allisonrbrown]

@LordeBarrington Yeah. That's about right.

[Allison Brown @allisonrbrown]

@Jess_Bartholow @yejimenez707 @justschools @a_kwabena @freep Yes. Profiting from her trauma and pain. A common refrain for Black community.

[Allison Brown @allisonrbrown]

Today, Judge Mary Ellen Brennan ordered that 15yo #Grace must remain in juvenile detention for not doing her online school work. @justschools {A THREAD}

@yejimenez707 @allisonrbrown @justschools @a_kwabena @freep This is horrifying. They need to let this baby go. I bet they are also charging her family fees related to her detention. #DebtFreeJustice #EndJuvieFees #ChildrenInCages #Children #FreeGrace

@GwinnettSToPP @justschools Thx @GwinnettSToPP. I am consistently in awe of all that you do! So much love and appreciation.

[Allison Brown @allisonrbrown]

White supremacy has a chokehold on all of us. We all are deprived of Grace's presence in the world right now, and we all will suffer the consequences of her trauma. Black children are policed at school, even when school is home. #FreeGrace #policefreeschools @justschools

[Allison Brown @allisonrbrown]

Each one of us has the chance to break the spell. To see #Grace for the child she is, for how frightened she is, for how alone she must feel, for how utterly confused she must be, for how regretful she is... for not doing her school work... in a pandemic that closed everything.
