We’ll never have true justice for George Floyd.
True justice would be George Floyd alive today.
We owe it to George, his family, and everyone murdered by law enforcement to continue building a more just America where everyone can thrive & live free from fear.

It’s been a constant battle for the soul of this country.
100 years ago today a Tennessee grand jury indicted science teacher John Scopes for violating the state’s law making it a crime “to teach any theory that denies the story of the Divine Creation of man as taught in the Bible, and to teach instead that man has descended from a lower order of animals.”

While politicians talk about incremental steps toward reforming our police department, their solutions and empty words fall short of keeping our residents safe. We need meaningful change in our system of public safety if we are going to rebuild trust in our communities.

Fascism is when the KKK mass murders at least 5000 Black people & terrorizes millions more, but are still allowed to exist & hold public marches due to "free speech," but Black & brown people are disappeared, deported, & tortured on the mere accusation that they said things the Govt doesn't like.😐

If Republicans make massive cuts to Medicaid, it will impact all aspects of our health care system. Millions of kids will lose coverage, hospital and insurance rates will soar and nursing homes will shut down.
All this in order to give huge tax breaks to billionaires.
