Also personal to my mission is my own family connection to justice in America.

My ancestor was John Brown. The first man hung for treason in America. He fought against the atrocities of slavery with a sword and gun. I am carrying his radical legacy with me every step of my journey.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Loved meeting Justice Lisa Holder-White this Monday. She delivered an incredible keynote speech. Also pictured is my running mate Bernadette Gordon

Getting @evanbrown4thetown.bsky.social and other Democrats elected in Springfield, IL and across the country, pack Democrats into all offices, push DA 2037 (Democrat Agenda 2037), and push redistricting efforts across the US.

I had a very productive and candid conversation with #MasseyCommission Co-chair Joanne Johnson y'day.

As you may know, the Sangamon County Board is highly partisan and the Repub majority has rejected one of our first recommendations, which would support recall elections for office of Sheriff.

I’m running in the upcoming #SpringfieldIL Municipal Elections for Capital Township Trustee. Part of our movement after Sonya Massey’s inexcusable murder is geared towards flipping a bunch of seats at every level of government. We need representation that honors the needs of the *whole* community.

"If a journalist calmly and truthfully explaining the problems with an industry or the problems of a company, with no embellishment, just explaining what the problem is directly to camera, comes off as a threat or comes off as a motive, then perhaps that industry is the problem."
A reporter covered United Healthcare. TMZ thought he might be a killer.
TMZ contacted Sean Morrow, a reporter for the nonprofit newsroom More Perfect Union, saying it had multiple tips tying him to the killing of Brian Thompson.

I will be posting more regular updates regarding my work on the #MasseyCommission here, as well as my interactions with local politics. Here in Springfield, things have been more chaotic and disheartening than ever since Sonya’s murder. I continue to fight.
