The Correctional Facility Disaster Preparedness Act, a federal bill informed by #JustUs policy recommendations has passed in the House of Representatives! Bipartisan support of this bill highlights the commonsense nature of protecting incarcerated people. ow.ly/AmJb50JX4zS

@glennEmartin I hear this, Glenn. How people treat those who can do nothing for them is a sign of true inner character.

@TonyFunchess The Maya Angelou school was founded by a group of DC citizens concerned about opportunities for youth in DC. They operate the schools in DC’s juvenile justice systems, and the Young Adult Learning Center, for those outside who need their GED seeforever.org

Being a leader requires being confident enough in your own decisions and those of your team to own them when they fail. The very best leaders take the blame but share the credit.

I am glad to see that @POTUS and @VP have called Cherelle Griner about #BrittneyGriner. This is an important step today. We will continue to call on this administration to do everything in its power to bring her home. #WinWithBlackWomen #WeAreBG #bringbrittneyhome
HUNTED & KILLED
JLUSA President & CEO @MzDeHoskins spoke with @CNN about the murder of Jayland Walker and the trauma of seeing yet another Black man hunted and killed by police, despite years-long frustration and calls from advocates for change. ow.ly/NPaF50JQOQp

All 100 or so of my meta-verse versions of me to stay away from folks who ain't in OUR corner!!
Can't wait to tell my meta-verse self to avoid most of you.
You gotta be in the game and on the field - screw the sideline onlookers to YOU actually doing the work
Remember, the people boo-ing you are in the fuckin’ audience. You’re on the field.

We spend more on policing, prosecutions, & prisons than any other society in the history of the word & yet since 2009, we have had 273 mass shootings, 1526 people shot & killed, & 980 people shot & wounded. “American exceptionalism.” everytownresearch.org/maps/mass-shoo…
Tony Funchess retweeted
Every time police arrest a white mass shooter alive & w/o shooting is an another powerful reason to reject the police “in fear for their lives” justification and narrative after shooting & killing a Black person, whether unarmed or actually armed.
