Came across this brick tonight by the stadium by accident. “Carmen Schentrup always a gator forever and ever.” She received her acceptance just 5 days before the shooting. #NeverAgain

Take a moment to research and educate yourself on your county’s state attorney, prosecutor, sheriff, etc.
These people have the power to act on police brutality in your own community, and it’s up to us to force them to act.

It is reprehensible that a SITTING member of the FL House is threatening violence with the same weapon that killed 17 of our classmates to intimidate Black Lives Matter protesters.
@AnthonySabatini, you are an utter embarrassment to the state of Florida. RESIGN IMMEDIATELY.

We must be as loud and as furious about murder in the black community as we are after mass shootings in majority white neighborhoods.

It you marched with us in 2018 and haven’t taken a single action in the past 6 days (signed a petition, called a rep/the DA, donated, protested) your activism is not intersectional.
March For OUR Lives, that means showing up for your Black brothers, sisters, and siblings.
police violence is gun violence. #TonyMcDade
POLICE VIOLENCE IS GUN VIOLENCE
This week, Tony McDade was murdered by a Tallahassee PD officer. We demand justice for Tony and the Black and Trans members of our LGBTQ community in FL. We also condemn the misgendering of McDade in news coverage. #BlackLivesMatter #TonyMcDade

Breonna Taylor was a 26-year-old EMT and aspiring nurse.
She was killed in her apartment, shot at least 8 times, after police entered unannounced.
"Breonna’s name should be known by everybody in America." #JusticeForBre #SayHerName #BlackLivesMatter

Breonna Taylor was shot in her own apartment. Why were 20 rounds fired by police? Why did they enter unannounced? They were looking for a man, who didn’t end up living in the complex, and turned out to already have been detained by the time she was dead. #JusticeForBre

On February 23, Ahmaud Arbery was shot and killed while jogging in Brunswick, GA. The men who chased him down and shot him claimed they "thought he was a burglar."

One year ago today a gunman entered a classroom at UNCC & started shooting.
A student Riley Howell fought with the gunman giving his life to save others.
Ellis Parlier & Riley lost their lives that day, while 4 others were injured.

“When this world flipped upside down, we had a choice...We could either cancel the Our Power campaign, or we could push through and innovate and do what we did in 2018.”
One public health crisis doesn’t stop for another. We don’t stop either.

Gun stores are NOT essential and a threat to our health and safety during this period of uncertainty. Sign our petition (link in bio) to help us end the surge in gun sales in California.

#TBT 🥺
Thinking of the brave work of chapters like @mfolflorida who advocate for peace in the face of opposition.
We can’t wait for the day where our organizers can physically stand together like this again. But until then, our digital organizing skills are #OurPower 😌
We sent a letter to @JoeBiden today to give him some advice to #EarnOurVote.
