I am, and will always be, a nurse. I carry each patient with me in my heart and it is for them that I take a stand. It’s why I was out here last week to speak out against reopening North Carolina. It’s why I’m out here again today.

And I’m not here alone. #HealthWorkersDefendNC

Your rap name is “lil” + the last reason you were in the hospital

7 December is Pearl Harbor Day, a day that lives in infamy. It caused us to pull together and address a global problem. Is it a lesson for us today?

@tide I used a Tide to go pen on my cross stitch which I’ve done before. I put it down on the patio and when I came back it had turned yellow. Is there any way to get it out?! #Tidetogo #tidepen

[Amber @notacrayon]

We’re still working to defend NC! #HealthcareHeroes #HealthWorkersDefendNC https://t.co/HYH1lOSy2a

[Amber @notacrayon]

Not even close.

Happy Nurses Day to all nurses, but ESPECIALLY these nurses. We advocate for our patients every day & then have to advocate for ourselves so we can be safe. I have a personal friend & former classmate that contracted COVID while caring for a patient because she had inadequate PPE

[Southern Workers Assembly @SWA_solidarity]

Incredible work by @NationalNurses with actions in 162 hospitals on #MayDay demanding more PPE and work place safety amid #COVID19

[Amber @notacrayon]

@CarrieShrop Never fear, I have a feeling there will be more like this to come as we continue our journey together! #HealthWorkersDefendNC

[Amber @notacrayon]

This is TERRIBLE NEWS to read as the right has pressured state and local governments to reopen prematurely #HealthWorkersDefendNC @NC_Governor @nc_reopen https://t.co/TvxBkG00S4

[Amber @notacrayon]

Thank you so much! I’m happy to stand up for my patients and you!

All of us?

[Amber @notacrayon]

You are correct! Facts don’t lie! Just last week Durham, NC has the highest average daily growth rate of deaths in the UNITED STATES! The rate of COVID deaths doubled every 1.9 days. #scienceisreal #datamakemehappy #HealthWorkersDefendNC

[Amber @notacrayon]

@amiricanews I send you a DM.

[Amir Samarghandi @amiricanews]

@notacrayon @NC_Governor I’m with @Newsflare, an international news agency based in London & Los Angeles. Can you DM me to discuss media usage for your clip? Thanks

It is reckless and careless of Reopen NC protesters to demand @NC_Governor reopen the state, but their fear of lost wages and poverty is legitimate. Social services should be expanded at the federal and state level to alleviate financial distress caused by the COVID-19 crisis.

[Amber @notacrayon]

I haven’t worked since March 31st. I’m not getting a paycheck and STILL I know what’s right. I am but one representing the majority of North Carolinians. #HealthWorkersDefendNC

[Amber @notacrayon]

Totally an old joke from high school! @emilyvgordon uses the term out of ❤️

[Peter Morley @morethanmySLE]

WATCH: Frontline health care workers in North Carolina stand-down protesters.

This is AMAZING. BRAVE. And SAD that as hard as they have worked to SAVE lives, they have to CONVINCE people to stay home to protect these protesters from spreading #COVID__19

[Amber @notacrayon]

The most badass girl in high school! Now I get to be the badass nurse standing up for my patients. The moment her Oscar nomination was announced I was trying to convince a patient to let me give him a suppository. #juxtaposition #HealthWorkersDefendNC

[Amber @notacrayon]

Your mom is EXACTLY the type of person in out there for! #HealthWorkersDefendNC
