Historian Kate Clifford Larson says the Trump administration's resistance to replace Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with Harriet Tubman "is rooted in misogyny and racism." democracynow.org/2019/5/30/t…

Reminder:
Attempts to criminalise solidarity with Palestinians violate free speech. The UK government owes a historic debt to Palestinians & has a duty to allow public discussion on Palestinian dispossession & Israel’s occupation, colonialism & apartheid. theguardian.com/world/2018/j…

BREAKING: Illinois just passed a law that recognizes all reproductive health care, including abortion, as a fundamental right.
Abortion rights are under attack like never before. Thank you to the Illinois legislature for boldly leading the way in protecting access to abortion.

Dr. Scott Warren faces up to 20 years in prison for giving food and water to migrants in the desert. Acts of kindness like this must not be criminalized! Stand with @Amnesty & @NoMoreDeaths and tell @USAO_AZ - humanitarian aid is never a crime! buff.ly/2HId3mM

One year ago today, I was a long-shot candidate for Congress that debuted this video.
We had no news coverage, virtually no elected officials had endorsed us, and by Election Day we were outspent 10-1.
But what we did have was the power of the people ⬇️

Most every major social movement used boycotts to raise awareness about persistent social injustice.
“Boycotts for Palestinian rights fall squarely within the US historic tradition of constitutionally-protected expressive activity,” @pal_legal on #BDS.

BREAKING: We just warned a NJ library that canceling a reading of the children's book "P is for Palestine" was unconstitutional. Public institutions can't engage in viewpoint discrimination. The event must be allowed. Thanks @ACLUNJ & @theCCR for joining! palestinelegal.org/news/2019…

Israel is committing the Crime of Apartheid as defined under international law, against all Palestinians, in historic Palestine and in exile.
States are obligated to take steps - #BDS and military embargoes - to end apartheid.

Remember these children. These are the migrant children who tragically died under the Trump administration's irresponsible and inhumane policies. We must continue to fight for them and demand that Congress investigates their deaths. #ProtectMigrantKids

I was right about Vietnam.
I was right about Iraq.
I will do everything in my power to prevent a war with Iran.
I apologize to no one.

Wow! When Trump tweeted that spliced video of Ilhan a few weeks ago to a weak response in the House, I definitely didn’t think he’d try it again + escalate. 🤷🏽♀️
Whatever this lawless President does to one of us, he does to all.
Until we learn that lesson, he will keep going.
Manipulated videos of Nancy Pelosi that made it seem as if she were repeatedly stumbling and slurring her words spread across social media on Thursday. President Trump shared one of the edited videos as tensions escalated between the 2 leaders. nyti.ms/2HRhtXy
