9 Black women say they were kicked out of a VA restaurant following a fight they had nothing to do with, and were told, “you all like to fight.” To be treated like a problem because you share the same skin color as those involved is unacceptable. This level of humiliation was wrong & dehumanizing!

New Mexico just became the first U.S. state to offer free child care for all families regardless of income. This is how we support families and give every child a fair start. Now, let’s make this a national model for justice and equity.
