WATCH: Tennessee State Rep. Justin Pearson speaks after vote to expel him from the House over participating in gun protests.

"Our lives are at stake. And we're going to fight for our lives, just like they're fighting for the NRA."

Some folks are now learning just how fucked bail/bond system is in this state (and in general)

Judges literally just decide what freedom is worth and often have complete discretion about their deciding factors. #stopcopcity

[James “Major” Woodall, Sr. @iMajorWish]

To use our civil rights legacy and ‘good trouble’ to describe what’s happening here in Ga, and city of ATL more specifically, is evil. This isn’t just about “police training,” nor are “outside agitators” the main voice of opposition.

Facts speak for themselves. #StopCopCity

[AFRICAN & BLACK HISTORY @AfricanArchives]

On this day in 1959, 69 black boys were padlocked in their dormitory at school and it was then set on fire.

21 burnt to death while 48 managed to escape.

A THREAD.

If you believe white privilege does not exist... then explain this sh*t. #BlackLivesMatter

[DR. RASHAD RICHEY @Rashad_Richey]

The Black Delegation has made a final decision... @kanyewest and #CandaceOwens @RealCandaceO refuse to wear a #BlackLivesMatter shirt, criticizes those who even say the phrase, and they out here on these streets on some straight 'yessa massa' sh*t!

“This proposed ordinance is a step in the right direction of recognizing the disparities caused by systemic racism.” - Ben Lynde, our policy counsel speaking to @atlcouncil. Ordinance bans discrimination against people affected by the legal system.

[Movement 4 Black Lives @Mvmnt4BlkLives]

Reproductive justice is central to Black liberation. Any limit on abortion access disproportionately harms Black women, girls, transgender, and gender non-conforming people, making our communities more vulnerable to criminalization and harm at the hands of the state.

Kamarion was killed in Effingham County. The person who’s responsible for shooting him has not been arrested. Trying to give him an appropriate home going service. Such a tragic loss yet we can help this family in their grief.

Please support this effort.

ATL ACTION ALERT! On this #BloodySunday, call 404-330-6092 between 4 and 7 to leave public comment telling City Council you do NOT support selling ACDC to Fulton County to expand pretrial detention. We must move forward toward wellness, not Backward with Bond. #CloseTheJailATL
