A secret system covers up and perpetuates police misconduct in California.
We expose that system today.
It took 3 yrs of digging by @UCBerkeleyIRP reporters @KateyRusch and @SmithCaseyA and superb editing by @demianbulwa and the whole @sfchronicle team.

Experts warned abortion bans would have consequences. Reporter @Ksurana6 has uncovered the cases of two women who died. The timeline of delayed care for Amber is gutting. She leaves behind a 6-year-old boy. https://t.co/EUtMVcNmvq
It's been almost a decade since California passed the Racial and Identity Profiling Act. Every year, the data shows the same thing. (Profiling! Lots of it.) https://t.co/YsCjoUu7BI

40 Acres and a Mule wasn't just a broken promise. It was one of countless acts of land loss that continued for decades through eminent domain, over-taxation, and much more.

40 Acres and a Mule wasn’t just a broken promise. It was a betrayal of Black Americans that has fueled a racial wealth gap that continues today.
This week on Reveal, the first in our three-part series with @publicintegrity: 40 Acres and a Lie.

So excited for @AlexiaCampbell & @publicintegrity's team that this amazing project is out in the world! What a feat, digging for years to find answers to illuminate this reparations history about former slaves who received land grants, only to have them seized back.

Uncovered in this project are countless stories, including the wealthy white enclave that was once promised to Black families after the Civil War. Today, it's a lavish community where everyone rides golf carts and calls it “paradise.”

@MotherJones@AlexiaCampbell, @aprilleticia, and @pratheekrebala conducted genealogical research to locate living descendants of those who had received and lost land, marking the first time these living Black Americans learned of their shocking family history: https://t.co/p2Oc3ASdCf
