One final trip…

Along with it being Senior Day, it is very likely today will be Kyle Filipowski’s final game at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

Thank you, #30.

Ok, but hear me out... maybe watching 300k+ people in your families and communities die around you from COVID has something to do with the desire to go into medicine. But, naw, it’s prolly just wanting to be like that nice white man on the TV...

In fact in Graham, NC, the minister leading the march paused it on the route into town, referenced John Lewis and said there wouldn’t be a repeat of Bloody Sunday today. A few minutes later, local PD were pepper spraying elders and children who wearing their Halloween costumes.

@gwen_fulton They did, however, laugh and joke through the whole 8 minutes of silence for George Floyd.

At least two people arrested, including a journalist. His arms were twisted behind his back. Police tear gassed people, including children and journalists. I got gassed. #Graham #Election2020

Today in #GRAHAMNC I went to a permitted March to the Polls lead by Rev Drumwright and others. Starting at a Black AME church, Rev Drumwright started the march by asking folks what our intentions were. TO VOTE the crowd chanted. Its the last day of Early Voting in #NC.

CW: police violence against children

One 12 year old child was pepper sprayed, separated from her mother in the chaos, and was crying asking if she was going to die.

Marchers kneeled for 8mins 46secs to remember George Floyd. Immediately after, Graham PD started escalating, before some folks had even gotten up - pepper spraying elders and children.

[Lindsay Ayling @AylingLindsay]

Cops have used pepper spray at least 5 times against a Black led march to the polls in Graham NC. Multiple arrests. Kids got sprayed.

Some of the pepper spray blew back on the cops and they were choking.

at the #BlackStudentsMatter march organized in a campaign to get DPS to terminate their contract with Durham County Sheriff’s Office, the chant is “SRO’s have got to go!” @indyweek

[the_proverbial_bus @proverbial_bus]

A yearlong study is insufficient. You must act now, defund the SRO program, and remove police officers from our schools. #BlackStudentsMatter

We got @MayorFrey to come out of his house and asked him one simple question. “Will you commit to defunding the Minneapolis Police Department?” He said no...Now we prepare for tomorrow...

If y'all live in Durham (NC), please send an email to [email protected] by tomorrow at 7pmET to tell @CityofDurhamNC that they should absolutely not be increasing the police budget right now (or ever). Over $70M. That's 1/3 of the General Fund.

[D.P. is @dpurifoy.bsky.social @daniellepurifoy]

Today's the deadline! If you live in Durham, NC, please send our City Council a message rejecting the 5% increase in the police budget. $70M for 2020-2021. That's 1/3 of our General Fund. Shout out to @rachelzkat for consolidating everything into a pre-populated email!
