@JenBrownARCC @NIH Totally agree Jen. This is exciting but we need flexible funding that allows us to invest at the hyper local level and build on existing trusted community-academic partnerships that take years to develop.

Organizers who once filled the halls of the 5th floor of City Hall now sit next to me, setting tables for how we provide treatment, not trauma, how we transform public housing, and how we Bring Chicago Home.

Thank you for the direction you have provided me, and our great city.

[Kimberlé Crenshaw @sandylocks]

Today's decisions from the Supreme Court on Affirmative Action represent a significant setback for Civil Rights in the U.S. and are a cornerstone of the conservative movement's coordinated effort to roll back access to opportunity for systemically marginalized Americans.

[Jeni Hebert-Beirne @jeni_hb]
