While politicians continue to attack our rights, 80% of Americans want abortion to be legal. We need to get louder.

Can we collectively dial down the ageism on this SCOTUS stuff? Sherrilyn Ifill is 59. Justice Anita Earls is 61. Having a Black woman who is also an experienced civil rights litigator would be a game changer. The Court NEEDS an experienced civil rights litigator. Full stop.

Good morning from France ☀️
“These are the times that try men's souls.”
“Whatever is my right as a man is also the right of another; and it becomes my duty to guarantee as well as to possess.”
“We have it in our power to begin the world over again.”

A hidden Pentagon archive revealed that, since 2014, the American air war in the Middle East has been plagued by deeply flawed intelligence that has killed thousands of civilians, many of them children. Read the takeaways of our investigation. nyti.ms/3Ec6qmA

This reminds me, yesterday I saw an article where they uncovered slave conditions and exploitation of migrant workers on ONION FARMS in Georgia. Plant-based foods are not harm-free if human slavery continues to happen.

As a public defender, I represented literally hundreds of Black men & women accused of doing this. Most literally couldn’t afford $2.75 subway fare. Difference between eating/not. Arrested, caged, forced to plea to the crime of “theft of services.” But when you’re white & proud:

Increasing money for policing is kinda like getting bigger buckets for a leak inside your home but never going on the roof to analyze the problem. We say the bucket isn’t working, it’s overflowing, has holes, we fall over it.
People respond, “You just want my house to flood!?”

I'm so disgusted by my college's decision to deny a posthumous degree to a disabled student who died in their last term because the board feels it devalues the degree.
HARVARD gives fucking posthumous degrees. I think they're more valuable than this fucking hippy school.

Hello. Your conference needs a quiet room. A designated and enforced low-stimulation space, where nobody talks, nobody has mechanical keyboards, and the lighting is muted.
You've *always* needed this room, but you need it *even more* after people have spent a year in isolation.

We are still only talking about the devastation in urban cities. My extended family who live in a village in Azamgarh tell me they have fever the last four days and they have lost sense of smell and taste. No testing facility available to ascertain. Same for most families there

Damn. And Black women gonna encourage you the whole way through.

Republican Congressman @DanCrenshawTX in Jan on @FoxNews: “If the Biden admin wants to impress us—double the goal. Say 200M vaccines in a 100 days. I will be impressed if he can do that.”

Hey, I hope you're taking good care of yourself. You can't help carry the pain of the world if you don't strengthen the muscles that make it possible for you to do so.

It's unbelievable that @Dallas_DA would charge a 16 year old Sex trafficked victim with murder when It was her trafficker who committed the crime. Join me in calling the DA & urging him to drop these charges. #SheWas16 #FreeZephi
