Holy shit... @LACoSheriff is actually spouting “Soros” conspiracy theories in front of elected bodies. One of the many reasons we call him the ‘Trump of L.A.’ https://t.co/goKaidZZS1

Let’s debrief and brainstorm together 🧡

[Change West Covina @ChangeWestCo]

Most importantly, this article reminds us that we do not want freedom just for ourselves, but for each other.

The path to liberation isn’t clear and it isn’t easy, but we hope to give you a starting point. (3/3) ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽

Author, activist, and feminist, Barbara Live, gives a quick breakdown of the essential 4 elements to develop a liberatory consciousness. (1/3)

#BlackHistoryMonth

[Change West Covina @ChangeWestCo]

Civil Rights Movement activists and #BlackLivesMatters leaders set an example for us on how to pursue liberation. As a community, we should integrate this struggle as part of our everyday lives. (2/3)

First and foremost, Dr. King was a radical, a disrupter of the status quo, and a champion of the poor and oppressed.

This #KingDay, we undertake a renewed commitment to finishing his work of dismantling systems of white supremacy. #MLKDay

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Republicans who say we can't impeach a president 7 days before an inauguration had no trouble confirming a Supreme Court justice 8 days before an election.

[Change West Covina @ChangeWestCo]

We will continue monitoring for new developments to today’s events. In the meantime, we remind everyone that we will continue holding perpetrators of racism and injustice accountable.

There’s no place for bigotry in our communities.

New info is circling re: Roy Ball incident so we’ve retracted our last tweet.

The fact of the matter is this: radical, right wing ideology is responsible for inciting the violence seen in Charlottesville in 2017, at the Capitol yesterday, and in LA today.

[Change West Covina @ChangeWestCo]

We cannot stand by and let racism and bigotry fester in our communities. We must quash those ideas before they spread and create real fatal consequences.
