Alberta O. Jones was Kentucky’s first Black female prosecutor and a civil rights icon. A portrait of her will be front and center in a new park, the first section of which is scheduled to be completed in November. @sylviaruthg reports. https://t.co/1KCZY7LBUd

One of my favorite love stories

[ACLU @ACLU]

On this day in 1967, the Supreme Court issued a unanimous decision in favor of our clients, Mildred and Richard Loving.

Our victory in this case overturned bans on interracial marriage nationwide, deeming those bans unconstitutional. #LovingDay

Federal and state officials came together in far western Ky. this week to talk about the future of nuclear energy as an important part of transitioning to non-carbon-based fuel sources and mitigating climate change. Via @doperle @wkms.

Almost busted my ass on a rotten banana peel in a parking lot so maybe this my calling to be a slip and fall attorney

Besides that some of us men act so nonchalant about abuse. It's not just "how it is" or "not as much as they say". It's wrong. You ain't sposed to put your hands on em or verbally abuse them. Punching walls, breaking shit or making threats all that shit wrong.

Insurance is covering half but I’m still in shock

[Amy Robertson @AmeliaR10]

Going over the ER bill from cutting off my finger tip:

Tetanus shot: $404
Injecting tetanus shot: $185
X rays: $865

This isn’t counting the $1861 bill for “ER level 3”. Whatever that means.

I can’t decide if I should laugh or cry.

@janki_kaneria I am so hype for this

[Amy Robertson @AmeliaR10]

WOW

[Joe Sonka 😐 @joesonka]

People are screaming at the senators from the gallery. "You're all fucking pieces of shit!"

It breaks my heart to see so many talented, caring PDs leave DPA. The exit numbers these past few years should be a wake up call. But I know the corruption runs too deep

Berg: "Before I was able to get in my house from coming home from the cemetery, I had hate mail on my phone telling me that I had killed my child. The hate that is coming out of this country is disgusting. It is scary, it is undemocratic & it is unconstitutional. Thank you."

[Amy Robertson @AmeliaR10]

@WANTED_joh Thank you!! I hope your move is going well!

The world needs more Drs like this

[Jesús G. Ruiz, Ph.D. @PhDJesus]

I have never posted about this, mainly for the safety of my spouse & family. But, she has asked me to share in this extremely pivotal moment. We live in TN. My spouse is an OB/GYN and every time she does an abortion to save someones life, she commits a class C felony.

Things I love about practicing in the south: older women calling the judges “hon”

It's not our time, yet.

Trader Joe’s employees at Shelbyville Road Plaza have successfully unionized in a 48-36 vote. @jmunoz1_ reports they will now look to negotiate changes such as better wages and benefits. https://t.co/HszZsNbfZO

@WANTED_joh I wish you well and hope you enjoy whatever is next!
