"The first genocide in history where its victims are broadcasting their own destruction in real time in the desperate, so far vain hope that the world might do something."

I couldn’t be more proud to stand with my colleagues calling for a ceasefire.
Hostages need to be returned safely and Palestinians deserve to live free from fear and bombardment. Most of all, they deserve for us to recognize their humanity.

Empathy Network Leader Robert Wood shared his powerful story with @thehill on why it's time to #PasstheEqualAct. Words like “freedom” and “justice” don’t mean as much when our laws aren’t fairly applied. thehill.com/opinion/civil-ri…

.@Comicsncolor included a fashion show of comic book characters of color. Tem Blessed @BluPlaneta says, “Representation matters. There’s always been a need for humans to see themselves as heroes & #POC have been underrepresented in comics & graphic novels.” @wbznewsradio

Just made my donation. Please give if you can to support the bail fund and the legal defense fund taking on this travesty of injustice in Florida.
The state told them they could vote.
Then arrested them for it.
You can help.
We're working with @FLRightsRestore to raise bail funds and we need your support. Voting with government permission is #NotFraud.
Donate here: bail.floridarrc.com/donate?s…

Hip hop’s beats & rhymes take up the unresolved debates & questions of the American Revolution – How are our voices heard? What should liberty look & sound like? What does it mean to be free?

So proud of our team working it today on the Hill.
Congress needs to hear from leaders who have experienced what's rotten about the federal prison system, and know how to fix it.
Our JUSTICE team is on the Hill today fighting to:
👊#KeepThemHome
👊Pass the EQUAL Act + bipartisan bills to reduce the federal prison population and reform sentencing
Join the fight! 👉 thedreamcorps.org/federal
