@7NewsDC The throwing everything was the @DCPoliceDept . Police can’t stop juvenile crime, they react to the crime. Invest in holistic resources. Invest in Programs and People who work with and support the youth. Invest in CARE of the juveniles not Cops. #reimaginesafety #DivestfromMPD
@councilofdc will be discussing police reform tomorrow, 10/15 ! Tag your council members and tell them #reformdcpolice #divestfrommpd and #investinblacklives !
The District should #DivestfromMPD and #InvestinBlackLives with trauma services, school-based mental health counselors, reentry services, and housing. We need leadership from @councilofdc now—we cannot continue to wait for reform and accountability of D.C. police
If you, like us, are on a swine free diet here are some healthy resources to keep you and yours safely fed! #divestfrommpd

Last week, the DC Council Judiciary Committee voted on its FY2021 budget. Next, it advances to the Committee of the Whole on July 7. Tell @MurielBowser and @councilofdc it's time to act on what thousands demand, #DivestFromMPD and #investInBlackLives. https://t.co/iQnMWhfUis
Judiciary Committee passes its FY21 Budget unanimously, including a provision that will restore term limits to the office of the chief of police of @DCPoliceDept. Onward to the full @councilofdc, where there is still much work to be done! #DivestFromMPD #InvestinBlackLives
Our latest report based on @DCPoliceDept data finds Black youth are stopped at 10x the rate of their white peers. We cannot hand MPD millions of additional dollars to continue their broken, discriminatory practices. #DivestfromMPD #InvestinBlackLives. https://t.co/pyGn9ZHyOc
“When words and data do not lead to action from those in a position to do something about it, community members rightfully feel angry and unheard.” -- ACLU-DC’s @monicadhopkinsin testimony to the @councilofdc #DivestfromMPD #InvestinBlackLives. https://t.co/7VsYhXbtov

.@monicadhopkins notes to @ChmnMendelson "yesterday you emphasized that "words matter" in response to community members who want to end the presence of police in our schools. We agree that words matter." #PoliceFreeSchools #DivestfromMPD #InvestInBlackLives
@ACLU @DCPoliceDept @CMCharlesAllen @AnitaBondsDC @VinceGrayWard7 @marycheh @ChmnMendelson @MayorBowser We hope that when our elected officials assert that #BlackLivesMatter, they back up those words with concrete actions to #DivestFromMPD and #InvestinBlackLives.
@ACLU @DCPoliceDept We urge @CMCharlesAllen @AnitaBondsDC @VinceGrayWard7 @marycheh @ChmnMendelson to take our report into account as they consider @MayorBowser's request of an additional $18.5 million to the MPD budget. #DivestfromMPD #InvestinBlackLives
@ACLU @DCPoliceDept MPD officers made 11,045 stops that did not end in a warning, ticket, or arrest, a category that almost certainly includes stops of people who were engaged in innocent conduct. Of the people who experienced these stops, 86% were of Black. #DivestfromMPD
