For the people, women’s rights, and freedom.

“But two things are wanting in []civilization a keener and deeper, [...] sense of justice a sense of humanity, which shall crystallize into the life of a nation the sentiment that justice, simple justice, is the right, not simply of the strong and powerful, but of the weakest.”

Today is the 89th day that Biden has continued to separate families and put kids in inhumane, for-profit cages.

"A government which can protect and defend its citizens from wrong and outrage and does not is vicious." ~ Frances Harper

[Insider @thisisinsider]

.@ColumbusPolice and @NYPDnews are tied for the second-most police killings of kids since 2013. The @Chicago_Police is first — killing 12 children in total, including last month’s fatal shooting of 13-year-old Adam Toledo.

@harper_few It is women like her that paved the way for other women of different races, ethnicities and generations to have a voice.

[FEWHarper @harper_few]

full agree, and that is something Frances Harper focus her energy and writing on. She wanted to make sure women, of all colors, had basic human rights!

[Kenziღ @KenzieTheGreatt]

@harper_few Men and Women have no discernible difference except those that society puts on them and deems as a difference. Our minds are the same, yet one, is always held in higher regard. Once again we circle back to the fact it is a societal issue not an anatomical one

[Kenziღ @KenzieTheGreatt]

@harper_few Yet we forget these right when the mindset of superiority comes into play. We forget to be humane and to see humanity because superiority has no place in humanity. It is a fallen fallacy that needs to retired especially by the white man.

“There are some rights more precious than the rights of property or the claims of superior intelligence: they are the rights of life and liberty, and to these the poorest and humblest man has just as much right as the richest and most influential man in the country.” -F. Harper

[The New York Times @nytimes]

“30 years later and nothing has changed.” The killing of George Floyd set off a reckoning over race and policing in America — but the outrage is not new. We watched Derek Chauvin’s trial with the families of Rodney King, Oscar Grant and Stephon Clark. https://t.co/4qMBOv5Uvd

“You white women speak here of rights. I speak of wrongs. I, as a colored woman, have had in this country an education which has made me feel as if I were in the situation of Ishmael, my hand against every man, and every man’s hand against me” Frances Harper

Women for Trump official: Despite Derek Chauvin’s guilty verdict, the residents of Minneapolis are going to riot anyway because they don't want to miss a 'free ticket for a shopping spree' https://t.co/ZLgdYo1SZQ

“It was a strange sight to see these black men rallying around the Stars and Stripes, when white men were trampling them under foot and riddling them with bullets.” -Frances Harper

[Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi @CongressmanRaja]

The former Minneapolis Police officer, Derek Chauvin, who murdered George Floyd has been found guilty. This justice for George Floyd must continue in the form of the Senate passing the House’s George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, which I cosponsored.

“and where human life is insecure through either weakness or viciousness in the administration of law, there must be a lack of justice and where this is wanting, nothing can make up the deficiency." ~ Frances Harper

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

There are no Black women in the Senate. They don't have our voice there to tell them that the Jim Crow filibuster is killing us.

Tomorrow, I'm holding a press conference at the Capitol to make it clear: to save lives, we must eliminate the Jim Crow filibuster.

"So close is the bond between man and woman that you can not raise one without lifting the other. The world can not move ahead without woman's sharing in the movement, and to help give a right impetus to that movement is woman's highest privilege." ~ Frances Harper

born “free” but still unable to live freely, Frances Ellen Watkins Harper still told her story, and got published too.
“Slavery is dead, but the spirit which animated it still lives.” -Frances E. W. Harper
