While COC celebrates that Sonya Massey’s family has received restitution for her murder, no amount of money can bring her back. We need a justice system that truly values human life and is not willing to substitute money for the presence of our loved ones. coc.is/4b1W6ju

County officials in Springfield, Illinois, have agreed to pay the family of Sonya Massey, who was shot and killed in her home last summer by a sheriff’s deputy responding to her call for help. huffpost.com/entry/ap-us-dep…

The $10M settlement for Sonya Massey’s family is a step toward justice, but accountability can’t stop here. A cop with a troubled past shouldn’t have been hired, let alone taken Sonya's life. Criminal and legislative action must follow. newschannel20.com/newsletter…

Thomas L. Jennings made history in 1821 as the first Black person to receive a U.S. patent for his novel dry-cleaning method. A successful businessman, he used his wealth to free enslaved family members and fund abolitionist efforts, leaving a lasting legacy. #BlackHistoryMonth

Justice is not just a goal—it is the foundation of a fair and equitable society. As we approach the King Holiday Observance (KHO) and honor Dr. King’s legacy, let’s embrace the call to action through #MissionPossible—protecting #freedom, #justice, and #democracy in the spirit of Nonviolence365.
Together, we can build systems that ensure equity for all.

“The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”
These powerful words from Dr. #MartinLutherKingJr resonate now as deeply as they did when he spoke them at the state capitol in Montgomery, AL.
To those growing weary in the fight against the injustices of our world, we encourage you to hold on to hope and continue pressing forward. History reminds us that justice, though delayed, will prevail. Every act of love, truth, and courage brings us closer to the world we envision—a world where justice reigns and human dignity is honored.
Let us not lose heart. The journey is hard, but the destination is certain. Keep bending the arc.

A wake-up call! Where Do We Go from Here? CHAOS OR COMMUNITY.
We have a choice. We can still fight to protect Freedom, Justice, and Democracy through the spirit of #Nonviolence365 and by choosing community over chaos.

The weapon Jarvis Jay Masters was accused of fashioning was never recovered and cannot be definitively linked to him, despite his conviction for its creation. This remains a key point in his claim of innocence. #FairTrial #bradyviolations #justiceforjarvis
