I have visited the Gaza solidarity encampment at Princeton and have talked to plenty of people who have visited encampments at other campuses. And it is 100% clear to me that they are not antisemitic or even close to it. Anyone who suggests otherwise are deceiving you. The day…
I have never seen a protest that wasn’t escalated to violence the second police show up in riot gear and start making arrests. Student activism has always been a key feature of our democracy. We should protect it.
In recognition of #SecondChanceMonth, we’re featuring the contributions of CCJ members who are formerly incarcerated. @TarraSimmons5 was the first formerly incarcerated person elected to the WA Legislature - and served on the Council’s Task Force on Long Sentences.
NEW: The Appeal has published the first national database of prison commissary prices. The project covers 46 states, revealing an exploitative system that forces incarcerated people to pay up to 5x the outside price for some items. theappeal.org/locked-in-pric…
Wonderful joining the Kitsap Mental Health Services board meeting and hearing from the incredible team that makes the “Hope lives here” mission a reality. I’m proud of the $773K investment Rep. Simmons and I helped secure that will enable KMHS to expand its Bremerton campus🧠💪
The first two panels on Friday addressed theories and deep thoughts as well as the players and the politics around #collateralconsequences and #recordrelief. #secondchancemonth CC: @osusoc, @CCRC_Official, @tmlyouth, @AleGCorda, @OHProsecutors, @TarraSimmons5, @SLandP
A Washington State nonprofit has trained more than 500 incarcerated people how to communicate with lawmakers as constituents, empowering them to take an active role in shaping policy and legislation that directly impacts their lives. theappeal.org/incarcerated-p…

Just got this a little bit ago!!!! I am just in AWE right now. So stoked to have had the Abstract accepted. I’m blessed to be doing their chapter with AMAZING friends and colleagues @Stu_Kokkalera and @Dragana_Derlic!!!
I am surrounded by resilience!!! Funny thing is I can do in 2 (almost 3) of these categories. Anyone wanna provide feedback on my book proposal that I just finished?

Indigenous sacred gardens have now been plotted & cultivated at the Washington State Penitentiary & Airway Heights, Coyote Ridge & Monroe Corrections Centers. We thank our allies @WACorrections for helping our relatives reclaim & sustain these sacred spaces. This is medicine.
Good discussion with the ladies at the jail yesterday. Topic: Creating a Legacy for Women’s History Month, featuring some of my heroes like @TarraSimmons5 @DonnaHylton @LashoniaThewire and Yvette Clausen. Recidivism reduction is a low bar. Come home a be a world changer.
What Happened at the Dublin Federal Women's Prison Last Week and What to Expect Next (via @KQED) pulse.ly/odhwlt9xsn
In the hood I'd lay in bed counting cockroaches on the floor. While my Daddy begged the crack man for more. I wondered why - if there's a God - I wasn't put out of misery. I didn't know the plan was to be celebrated as part of Women's History.
Such an incredible honor!! I miss you and your colleagues already! ❤️

@TarraSimmons5 Hi Tarra I just watched a short video on A&E with your story! And it really gave me hope that maybe I can become more than a felon! I truly chopped my life up as I will never become a nurse or anything respectable! I hope u will reach bk to me! Show me how! Thx Teresa Parks!
When talking with people who have been sexually abused/trafficked don’t ask: Why didn’t you fight back or what didn’t you leave? But ask How can I help you, What happened to you or What do you need in this moment? Trauma Informed and Not Shaming questions #SAAM
The idea that every new lawyer has to take the bar exam just because "we've always done it that way" is absurd. How well a person did on a test one time is an unreliable indicator of professional competence. Time to reduce the barriers. Fresh voices make us better.
For the first time, it will be possible to become a lawyer in Washington without ever sitting for a bar exam. A few words on how this happened and what we think (and hope) this means for the future of the @WAStateBar and the legal profession. kitsapdefense.com/blog/2024/apri…
I wish we talked about how chronic pain in the body can be from the hurt and betrayal from the people in our past. The body remembers.
JustLeadershipUSA team and leaders showed up yesterday for the FreeHer rally in D.C.!
Great to be at the White House today with @KimKardashian for an inspiring event on clemency. Thank you @VP @KamalaHarris for recognizing so many inspiring pardon recipients and their amazing stories!

We sure don’t look like what we’ve been through. Collectively we’ve spent decades behind bars and I only make up only a couple of those long years. Thank you @Day1Pictures for this beautiful moment. #freeher @thecouncilus 🙏🏽
Thank you @JuLeadersUSA. I learned & lead with the best #lwc2020 Leading with conviction‼️🔥
Panelists—including @tiawanabrown (Leading with Conviction™ 2020)—will discuss their journeys from incarceration to leadership, the importance of second chances, and why it’s important for returning citizens to be engaged in local politics. #SecondChanceMonth #Reentry
My least favorite part of the job is spending the first six months of the year in Albany. It keeps me away from the District and means you may not see me on the street or community events as often. However, I do it to bring the much-needed resources and monies to the District!
In recognition of #SecondChanceMonth, we’re featuring the contributions of CCJ members who are formerly incarcerated. @TarraSimmons5 was the first formerly incarcerated person elected to the WA Legislature - and served on the Council’s Task Force on Long Sentences.
