#OTD in 2020, Louisville Metro Police Department officers shot and killed 26-year-old Breonna Taylor in her home while executing a search warrant.

The DOJ recently found reasonable cause to believe that the LMPD has routinely violated the constitutional rights of residents.

[Cheryl D. Hicks @CherylDHicks1]

Remembering Breonna Taylor today.

[The Leadership Conference @civilrightsorg]

It’s been three years.

Breonna Taylor should be here.

We remember her. We fight for her. We #SayHerName.

@NBWJInstitute @ABWHTruth @UNC_Press @NBWJInstitute Thank you for your continued support!!!! Your work is so incredibly important. I appreciated the opportunity to provide historical context for how New York’s criminal legal system treated Black women and girls between 1890-1935.

[National Black Women’s Justice Institute (NBWJI) @NBWJInstitute]

Wow. This piece is heavily dependent on my book with no citation to it. Unfortunately, this is not the first time this has happened.

We celebrate the historic confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to become the first Black women justice on the U.S. Supreme Court!
