So itโs been a while but I finally found my next fundraiser and wanted to share. Honey Bee Families is a nonprofit that I assist in the Baltimore area. The org will be sending 20 youth to camp this summer & need help. If you can, you can donate through PayPal. Thanks in advance
I canโt remember the last time I watched @CNN and tonight is another reminder of why. We are watching the rise of Jim Crow and CNN is allowing this hack time to spread his lies. Everyone working there should be deeply ashamed
A 12-year-old boy was shot and killed yesterday when he stopped to buy ice cream at a Florida convenience store, but you might not have heard about it because itโs the sort of thing that happens every single day in America. Itโs long past time we did something about that.
@letmesleepfam @sporadiceg@Tinu@bibicosplays Restraints are used and you check in with the individual. This was murder in broad daylight and itโs terrifying
@letmesleepfam @sporadiceg@Tinu@bibicosplays My grandmother, mother and brother were all schizophrenics. Iโve worked in the behavioral health field all my adult life. I see this every day in some capacity. De-escalation and mental health first aid is what was needed, not physical restraint. Even if it got to that point.
@JSCearbhaill We live in a society where some men can walk around fully armed in a Walmart and itโs not a problem but someone with a mental illness having a hard time can be murdered in broad daylight AND have the murderer set free. Just sickening.
Run do not walk to buy The Protest Psychosis by Jonathan Metzl. It will help explain how schizophrenia has been criminalized and seen as a blk manโs disease. As a social worker and just a decent person this is fucking enraging ๐คฌ
This man applied a CHOKE HOLD on a man for 15 MINUTES ..... until that man died. According to witnesses, the victim was ranting loudly when his killer grabbed him from behind. The killer was interviewed by police and has since been released

Jamie Foxx is one of the most talented actors in the history of Hollywood. If we were to sum up Foxx in one word, it would be "gifted". At his best, Foxx is as good as any actor you can imagine. Prayers up to Foxx and his entire family as he recovers from a recent medical emergency.
