Alabama has one of the lowest vaccination rates in the US. But in the rural community of Panola, AL, 94% are vaccinated, including every single person over 65—thanks, in large part, to the efforts of Dorothy Oliver. https://t.co/GCyHjisxVh
Derek Chauvin’s conviction and incarceration aren’t accountability; they’re punishment. People are deeply entitled to want to see Chauvin punished. But we should not call it accountability. Accountability is transformative. This will be many things, but it will not be that.

(And repentance comes with reparations and accountability.)
Repentance comes before reconciliation.
Reconciliation comes before unity.
