If we believe in the capacity of human beings to transcend our petty interests and to think on a grand scale, we cannot give up on dreaming that #COP28 will lead to an acceleration of the energy transition. This Conference can be a turning point.
It’s morally insane that in Tennessee they can pass laws to ban books, ban conversations about racism and bias in schools, ban drag shows, and even try to ban Black legislators they disagree with… but we can’t pass a ban on militarized guns from terrorizing our communities…
In the end, the people of Tennessee made the ultimate choice of courage and hope. Thank you to the thousands who came to the people’s house today to show the nation that we will not yield to authoritarian attacks on our democracy. Our fight is not over. #notonestepback ✊🏾
Good news: a majority of Nashville city council members just announced they WILL reinstate Justin Jones after his expulsion yesterday. This is the right thing to do. Republicans can try all they want to silence & get rid of Justin Jones, but he will not go anywhere.
4 years ago, my beautiful daughter Jaime was murdered by a student with an AR 15 in school. She was likely reading a book. 4 years later, the Florida legislature is working on banning books while trying to make it easier to get guns. Less books, more active shooter drills.
