Proud Boys have been sighted on Hillsborough Street in #Raleigh to harass an LGBTQ event at Umami. This is a call for anyone who can get down there to assist in protecting the event!!!

Sometimes our most well-intended messages can #backfire...

Take fair housing for example: “affordability crisis” framing focuses attention on people’s ability to afford housing rather than on the costs of housing or the availability of affordable options.

New analysis from @CivicYouth shows that abortion was the #1 issue for 18-29-year-olds in the 2022 midterms & that the 18-29-year-old cohort was the only age group that prioritized abortion > inflation.

A mashup of two of my favorite orgs here in NC. Both have a vision of a stronger, more just, and more resilient NC, and both are advancing their missions with unparalleled clarity + conviction.

[Mission Partners @missionprtnrs]

The spark might be in the stumble. #Progress is certainly through #practice. And we need a whole lot of #firstdrafts to write a #story that works for all of us.

#ICYMI, @weberach explores our #firstdraft approach to #brainstorming in her latest #blog: https://t.co/gpDazFKODg

@Family_Connects @DukeU Congratulations, @Family_Connects team!

[Ashton Lattimore @ashtonlattimore]

It's been a heavy week, & I'm so grateful for the incredible staff & contributors @prismreports who've shared their brave, deeply-reported, & inclusive work. In a moment like this one, we're proud to show up as an unabashedly pro-abortion, pro-repro justice newsroom. 🧵(1/x)

[Carolina Abortion Fund @CarolinaAbtnFnd]

Big thread incoming.

We at CAF want to acknowledge how strange and liminal this moment feels – not only because the South has been post-Roe for a long time, but also because this is still a preview. The ink is all but dried, and yet we wait.

[Tina Vasquez @TheTinaVasquez]

We’re going to continue having abortions. That much I know.

[Rachel Weber @weberach]

@BrianCCastrucci So grateful that you’re recovering well! Thank you for all you do!
