On this day in 1944, George Stinney Jr., a 90-pound 14-year-old boy, was executed in the electric chair in Columbia, SC. He remains the youngest person executed in the U.S. in the 20th century. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/HmGMqKVzHI

Stuck in the shallow end

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 1958, St. Petersburg, Florida, ordered the closure of a public indoor swimming pool because a Black 19-year-old named David Isom used the facility. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/pBjqlfJuwW

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 2020, Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin forcefully pinned George Floyd to the ground and held his knee on Mr. Floyd’s neck for over nine minutes until he died. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/Dj8BQOzoDb

"commended his actions"

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 1908, an Alabama congressman shot a Black man for cursing in front of a white woman on a street car in Washington, D.C. His fellow representatives commended his actions. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/4gZKFJDuXB

Curious to know how the pom pom crab got its name? It's all thanks to their unique behavior of carrying a living sea anemone around (note the little tentacles in center of this crab). This may seem like a silly thing to do, but these anemones actually help the crab to catch food.

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 1924, Virginia passed the Eugenical Sterilization Act authorizing forced sterilization and enacted a prohibition on interracial marriage in an effort to "purify the white race." To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/aoVBFP8jkb

"simply because they were Black and present" lynched “at the hands of parties unknown.”"

[Equal Justice Initiative @eji_org]

On this day in 1901, after a Black man accused of stealing a white man’s wallet escaped lynching in Rome, TN, the mob of white men instead seized and lynched Ballie Crutchfield, his sister. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. https://t.co/e0YfBNIbpV

crisis. ignored. pleas. taking steps.

[Governor Katie Hobbs @GovernorHobbs]

Today, alongside tribal leaders, I signed an Executive Order establishing the Task Force on Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. For too long, our state has ignored tribal leaders’ pleas for help addressing the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People. Today we are taking the first of many steps to stop the abuse, exploitation, and violence against Indigenous Peoples.
