Suddenly, the whole nation is depending on the same people they say shouldn’t make $15 an hour.

Good to see former SWs returning to practice. That may help. What may help more is if we had a strong national steer on how we enable student social workers to complete their studies, graduate & become registered NQSWs asap. Leaving it to HEIs & SWTP interpretation isn’t enough.

Abolition is more than just no prisons. It’s about creating a community where prisons are NOT needed.

Reforming legislation is more about racing with other non-profits to win and maintain funding/get more funding, and less about the people being impacted.

There is a man in prison in Florida since 1976. No murder. He was a 13 year old runaway. He is languishing after 40 years. Anyone out there that can help him??

Protests around the world this year have been amazingly creative. Today in Chile an orchestra performed “El pueblo unido, jamás será vencido!" ("The people united will never be defeated") The song was written in 1973, right before the coup by Pinochet.

Biden should not represent the center, he should represent conservatism. The fact he is viewed as centrist shows how successful the far right has been in their efforts over the decades to shift US politics to the right and undo social reforms that occurred during the 60s-70s.

A lot of y'all are still very bought into white supremacist patriarchy and feel something is amiss in the world if there isn't a wealthy white man ruling over you. Y'all can't conceive of a world that isn't ordered this way and the possibility of that frightens you.

@politicalpraxis I am opposed to statutory registration of social workers - to be registered to state entity that binds the profession to state policy is a fundamental breach of social work ethics

The independent voice of social work academics can be awkward to hear at times but therein lies its value. Its the difference between paying to hear the truth and paying to hear what you think the truth should be.

I'm still trying to understand why the Democratic Party waits until the 11th hour to pour energy & resources into engaging Black voters in critical state & local races when it should be clear by now that you can't win without turnout from these voters
