I’m either responding the same second you hit send or in 6-8 business weeks (if ever) 🤷🏻‍♀️
i'm both a "fast replier" and "never replies" type of person. it depends on my mood and who u are.
While politicians continue to attack our rights, 80% of Americans want abortion to be legal. We need to get louder.

What’s worse than lack of autonomy at work is lack of support. Rarely does a viable path to success exist without it.
Wow. Who knew @PodSaveAmerica could be so therapeutic. The guys nailed exactly how I’m feeling regarding the horrific events of this week through the lens of a parent. Definitely brought on the tears. We have to do better.

You really want to understand how many corporations are profiting off mass incarceration? Starting tomorrow, I'm going to expose a new corporation or executive engaged in the prison industry daily. And I won't be going into the vault, recent sources only. Follow now.

Inaccessibility is not doing nothing. It is the act of excluding disabled people.
Can we collectively dial down the ageism on this SCOTUS stuff? Sherrilyn Ifill is 59. Justice Anita Earls is 61. Having a Black woman who is also an experienced civil rights litigator would be a game changer. The Court NEEDS an experienced civil rights litigator. Full stop.

Good morning from France ☀️ “These are the times that try men's souls.” “Whatever is my right as a man is also the right of another; and it becomes my duty to guarantee as well as to possess.” “We have it in our power to begin the world over again.” - Thomas Paine 💪🏻✌🏻💜

A hidden Pentagon archive revealed that, since 2014, the American air war in the Middle East has been plagued by deeply flawed intelligence that has killed thousands of civilians, many of them children. Read the takeaways of our investigation. nyti.ms/3Ec6qmA

Replying to @Imani_Barbarin
This reminds me, yesterday I saw an article where they uncovered slave conditions and exploitation of migrant workers on ONION FARMS in Georgia. Plant-based foods are not harm-free if human slavery continues to happen.

As a public defender, I represented literally hundreds of Black men & women accused of doing this. Most literally couldn’t afford $2.75 subway fare. Difference between eating/not. Arrested, caged, forced to plea to the crime of “theft of services.” But when you’re white & proud:
After leaving their rally in NYC today, Proud Boys bypass the subway toll by going through the Emergency Exit door.

Increasing money for policing is kinda like getting bigger buckets for a leak inside your home but never going on the roof to analyze the problem. We say the bucket isn’t working, it’s overflowing, has holes, we fall over it. People respond, “You just want my house to flood!?”

Donald trump has a lot less money and generational power than Liz Chaney. This is important.
I’m no Liz fan (unless it’s my girl Warren) but holy duckers people - this is wild. This is what you need to know about the future of the Republican Party. Think about it and decide how much viability you want to allow it to have.

Lol duckers was meant to be a more adult word but I kind of like this autocorrect so it’s staying.
