@AnnieRiceStL I would like to see - training classes for EMT, Firefighters, Police officers, tutoring, youth justice I want to be a lawyer, how can I help my community, how can I start a business as a teen, finance for teens and mindfulness in the youth programs for middle and high school.
@AnnieRiceStL mandatory paid counseling of all police officers including family counseling so they don’t take the job stress home with them. This is for the daily stress they see not just shootings. Mandatory time off moonlighting doesn’t count as time off.
@drock89@AnnieRiceStL Overtime is bad for officers mental health. I don’t want a tired, overworked, mentally stressed out anyone with a loaded weapon in my neighborhood. Hiring people with ethics and removal of bad apples including Jeff R - is a must for this city to heal.
@AnnieRiceStL How about mentoring youth to take over policing the community they care about. Joining the police department so they can protect the community they care about from people like Jeff R. Hiring people from the community they police vs forcing people to live in the city for the job.
ICE guard casually runs his truck through a group of peaceful protestors. Heather Heyer was murdered by white supremacists who did the same. Take a good hard look at who the real perpetrators of violence and brutality are. It's the American right wing.
BREAKING: The Department of Labor just proposed a rule that aims to let government contractors fire workers who are LGBTQ, or who are pregnant and unmarried, based on the employers’ religious views.
This is taxpayer-funded discrimination in the name of religion. Period.
Most of my father’s family was brutally murdered at the hands of Hitler’s white supremacist regime—a regime which came to power on a wave of violence and hatred against racial and religious minorities.
We cannot allow that cancer to grow here.
ICE agents terrorized this New Jersey teenager throughout Sunday night. She knew not to open the door because of the “know your rights” posts on social media. https://t.co/A0mii8nerg
But many people won't have the option of staying inside come tomorrow because they need to go to work. A more insidious terror. https://t.co/A0mii8nerg
