🕊 Inequality not only creates poverty, it pushes punishment over prevention, fear over reason, and consumption over community.
MLK dreamed of a moral economy that measures society by how well the poorest are doing.
Until we address this issue, we can innovate endlessly & still fail to live together

Today we honor Dr. King by remembering that his legacy wasn’t comfort or quiet it was courage, sacrifice, and resistance in the face of injustice. He knew progress is never handed down; it’s pushed forward by ordinary people who refuse to accept inequality as normal.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.
This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

ICE is comprised of an insecure bunch of losers who want to feel powerful through fear. They’re incapable of doing anything constructive as they lack actual skill and mental fortitude.

Once one government learns it can override your fundamental rights, every government learns it can too. That’s the danger of the Notwithstanding Clause. It teaches power to ignore accountability.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Call your reps. We know that Dems will throw trans people under the bus even without the govt shutdown on the line. They need to hear from everyone but especially cis folks that this is not acceptable.
1. The HHS Appropriations Bill is out and it contains several devastating anti-trans provision.
It would bar federal funding for trans youth and adult care nationwide, which could be used to bar hospitals from providing it at all.
Will Democrats stand firm, or cave to avoid a shutdown?
