We will be granting 15 Black-led organizations $100,000 so they can provide direct payments to Black mamas and caregivers who have been disproportionately affected by SNAP.

We refuse to let them starve our people into cages.

I've been thinking about this quote all day

"Every university in Gaza has been destroyed. The mass killing of Palestinians has also extinguished the knowledge, memories, experiences and indeed the histories that they carry as individuals. Genocide targets a people’s past as much as their present."
