I have the honor of speaking at this event on #Juneteenth!
Part of the proceeds will support @BLMNashua and there's time to get to it after spending some time at Juneteenth in Manchester!

Someone who holds such hostility and contempt for Black people should not be employed in emergency services.

How many BIPOC in Milford have been mistreated or not taken seriously by this 911 dispatcher who clearly does not value their lives?

@Liberty_603 @SenDavidWatters @BlackHeritageNH @BlmSeacoast @BLMManchesterNH ........should be denounced for a bill that's *repealing* the divisive concepts legislation that our chapter and others *fought against* to *begin with*?

[Black Lives Matter Nashua @BLMNashua]

@Liberty_603 @SenDavidWatters @BlackHeritageNH @BlmSeacoast @BLMManchesterNH Judging the content of someone's character also takes into account the negative actions they've taken and how those impacted others.

Glossing over those and labeling them "divisive" helps absolutely no one.

Using this quote is reductive to Dr. King's legacy.

SB 92 would disproportionately impact our Black and Brown communities.

Contact your representative and tell them to show their support for racial justice by opposing this anti-bail reform bill: https://t.co/aG5hhWxBe8

URGENT: Contact your state rep and ask them to oppose SB 92. #NHPolitics

[Black Lives Matter Manchester @BLMManchesterNH]

URGENT: Ask your representative to oppose SB 92.

SB 92 would mandate the incarceration of people charged with any one of 13 offenses prior to arraignment pre-trial based only on unsubstantiated allegations.

This will disproportionately affect Black people.

Daunte Wright will never get to see his son grow up.

Think about that before calling this verdict “justice”.

[Black Lives Matter Nashua @BLMNashua]

“The maximum penalty for 1st degree manslaughter predicated on reckless use/handling of a firearm is 15 years in prison and/or a $30,000 fine.

Since Potter has no criminal history, Minnesota sentencing guidelines recommend a sentence roughly between 6 and 8.5 years in prison.”

[CNN @CNN]

JUST IN: Kim Potter, the former police officer who said she mistook her gun for a Taser when she fatally shot Daunte Wright, has been found guilty of manslaughter https://t.co/84QSmTQLLE

[Black Lives Matter Nashua @BLMNashua]

Today’s verdict is a step in the right direction for accountability, but true justice would be a world where Black people are free to live, breathe, and thrive without fear of oppression. We’ll continue to fight for that better world, in Ahmaud’s memory.
