1. Recognize white supremacy 2. Center margins 3. Put yourself at risk #coconspiratorship means persistent, insistent, consistent acts that disrupt anti-Blackness. @ATN_1863 @ProfBrandelyn

There is no form of protest against racism or method of teaching about racism that will be palatable to racists.

I believe that the fear mongering regarding CRT is intended to usher in the banning of any teaching of substance on the history of slavery and racism and on the current devastation of racism. And I oppose quoting my father to facilitate that fear and to usher in that banning.

White supremacy devastates people, then cruelly mocks [while denying its part in] the devastation. White supremacy facilitates poverty, then blames people for being poor. White supremacy pillages cultures and communities, then labels those it violates as violent.

To the Black kids waiting and watching: You matter. You are loved. You have worth. You have value. Don’t let ANYTHING tell you otherwise.

Real justice is only achieved by preventing these deaths in the first place, and until we can end the scourge of police violence on Black communities, we will fight to make sure that happens.

We hear the verdict in Derek Chauvin’s trial is coming shortly. A reminder: Real justice would be George Floyd being able to return to his daughter Gianna.

Last night's shooting & the appalling rise of anti-Asian violence stem frm a sick society where nationalism has again been stoked & normalized. Anti-Black & anti-Asian racism & violence run in tandem in the U.S. Both grps were brought here for labor but never meant to be citizens

I just signed a @theactionnet petition: Safe Schools Require Prioritizing the Vaccination of Educators. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…
Safe Schools Require Prioritizing the Vaccination of Educators

Safe Schools Require Prioritizing the Vaccination of Educators

Every state bordering Missouri is prioritizing the vaccination of educators. Yet, Missouri has not authorized the distribution of vaccines to educators statewide. This is unacceptable! Missouri...
