"[the '94 Crime bill] has done very little to create long-term solutions. Instead, it placed a permanent moving target on the backs of Black people, and the D.C. crime bill will do the same." A new op-ed from @adv_project and @HarrietsDreams bit.ly/43EGFKm
Congratulations to our Executive Director @jbrownedianis!!! As a pioneer of movement lawyering, she will be honored as an alum of @ColumbiaLaw at the Constance Baker Motley Gala for her outstanding contribution to public service in her work as a lawyer.
We create truly safe schools when we provide physical & emotional safety for ALL students. That’s why LPMN members are speaking out to ensure prone restraints remain banned in schools. We urge your immediate opposition @epmurphymn @GovTimWalz localprog.org/MNletter
Young people have fought at the city level to see real investment in their schools by demanding SROs be removed & replaced with healing resources. HB5008 seeks to undo the work the CBOE has done to prepare to remove police and reinvest in holistic systems of care.
President Biden’s call to pass the newly reintroduced John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act underscores the need to fight rampant suppression targeting voters of color. Read our full statement on the State of the Union: bit.ly/3Ts4scV

Today, Senate Judiciary Committee Chair @SenatorDurbin and @SenatorWarnock reintroduced the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. If passed, this legislation could have tremendous impact for Black and Latine voters. Read our full statement here: bit.ly/4bQmZa1
Is DC’s Crimnibus really about OUR safety? NO! This crime bill not only gives unchecked power to police, it revives old, ineffective and racist practices that harms Black and brown communities. #UsNotCrimnibus #SecureDC bit.ly/block-the-crim…

🧵 Thread: #PoliceFreeSchools is not a new demand, it’s been organized and lead by young people for years. In 2017, BPNC youth joined young people from across the country in nationwide convening on #PoliceFreeSchools. #CopsOutCPS
Outside of the Board of Education this morning with youth and allies demanding real safety in our schools. That looks like long-term investment in our young people, not police. #CopsOutCPS
@adv_project and @4EdJustice encourage the Chicago Board of Ed to vote to terminate the contract between @Chicago_Police and @ChiPubSchools and fully remove police from schools. #PoliceFreeSchools are possible! Read our full letter to the Board here: bit.ly/48qglEk
Our partner @AboutFreedomInc is fighting to stop the $50M building of a cop city in Fitchburg, WI. Common sense and countless research states that more state violence is NOT the answer. Invest in communities, not police. No Cop City here, no Cop City anywhere!

I graduated from @upenn undergrad and @ColumbiaLaw. Both used affirmative action to ensure admissions included a Black girl from Queens. I had excellent grades, student leadership experience and brought diversity. I’m clear I added value to both schools. #AffirmativeAction
