Thank you @HighlanderCtr for having us!
Just back from a great few days as a part of a Southern Memory Workers Institute at @HighlanderCtr. Thinking about the practice of remembering, of valuing the small moments that get overlooked, and how this prepares us for making real change happen.
Moments before Atlanta City Council voted to fund Cop City, they brought these guys into the chambers. Because their rule comes from their strength and not their legitimacy. We have plenty of legitimacy where they do not. Now it is time for us to be strong.

NO BABE THE SOUTH IS MORE THAN BIGOTS THERE ARE LIKE HUNDREDS OF COMMUNITIES EXISTING IN THESE STATES FULL OF PEOPLE COMMITTED TO LIBERATION THOSE STORIES ARE LIES INTENDED TO KEEP US DISTRACTED AND FRACTURED WE ARE SO MUCH STRONGER AS A UNITED WORKING CLASS—
“WHAT MOST PEOPLE DON’T GET IS THAT THE CURRENT CASH BAIL SYSTEM IS A MODERN INVENTION ALMOST TOTALLY UNIQUE TO THE U.S. CREATED TO PUNISH & EXTRACT WEALTH FROM POOR COMMUNITIES WHILE LINING THE POCKETS OF THE FOR-PROFIT BAIL INDUSTRY AND THE INSURANCE MEGA-CORPS WHO BACK IT.”
SO LIKE THE TYPICAL UNION WORKER EARNS $1,169 A WEEK WHILE THE MEDIAN NON-UNION WORKER EARNS JUST 83% OF THAT AT $975 A WEEK. AND EVEN MORE SHOCKING 95% OF UNIONIZED WORKERS HAVE ACCESS TO EMPLOYER-SPONSORED HEALTHCARE BENEFITS COMPARED WITH JUST 68% OF NONUNION WORKERS
Sign this petition now to stop the erasure of civil rights history: actionnetwork.org/letters/public…
This legendary civil rights organization deserves to tell its own history and take control of its legacy. Highlander is asking its supporters and other members of the public to submit their own unique written comments by September 1, 2022. (3/4)
