Today is the first anniversary of #BloodySunday since the passing of John Lewis. 56 years ago, Lewis led 600+ civil rights marchers & suffered a severe injury fighting for the right to vote. We must honor his legacy by continuing his work to create a democracy that works for all.

It is in ALL of our self-interests to end white supremacy and work toward a future where we’re all liberated. @MuslimARC @namirari #JusticeConf19 – at Atlanta, GA
For non-Black communities of color we have to figure out how we exist in America. Some Asians and members of other groups have chosen to seek whiteness, but you can’t take that path without oppressing others. @namirari @MuslimARC

This is a reminder that the #ModelMinorityMyth is an anti-Black trope that masks the realities of our communities and makes us pretend like entire sections of our communities/selves don’t exist. Don’t let white supremacy tell us who we are. #AsianAmerican #JusticeConf19

Asian American community has a huge stake in combating Islamophobia - so many Asians are Muslim, and we can’t let this fester in our community like it has in so many others. @EdAhmedMitchell #JusticeConf19 – at Atlanta, GA
