THREAD: Students are taking college campuses to demand freedom for Palestinians in Gaza. Universities are responding with brutal repression.
Join us this Thursday April 25th for our fourth homeroom "Weaponization of Colorblindness: Understanding the Attacks on Civil Rights and DEI." Register here: bit.ly/F2L_ROAD2NDOA24
Let me break this down for you: The Supreme Court is weighing criminalizing homelessness—that means if you’re sleeping outside, you will be arrested. Approx. 40% of homeless people in the U.S. are Black. This is not just about housing—this is the prison industrial complex too.
Unbuild Walls Join @silkys13, Ruth Wilson Gilmore, and @orangebegum for a conversation about the intersections between immigrant rights, racial justice, and prison abolition, hosted with @DetentionWatch Tuesday, May 7th at 5:00 pm ET RSVP to join: tickettailor.com/events/haymark…
In #JohnsonVGrantsPass, SCOTUS will decide if cities can ticket or arrest people for sleeping outside w/ no other options. Criminalizing homelessness is not the answer. We need better solutions like affordable housing & supportive services. Take action: johnsonvgrantspass.com
This man makes 13 cents an hour as a prison janitor. After working 136 hours, he donated $17.74 to relief efforts in Gaza. Such a beautiful interview-essay by Aala Abdullahi: themarshallproject.org/2024/04/05/pri…

🚫🛌 Arrests and fines don’t solve homelessness — they extend it. Let’s focus on proven solutions instead. 💡🏠 #JohnsonVGrantsPass goes before #SCOTUS on April 22. #HomelessnessIsSolvable Learn more: bit.ly/3xmp8dv ⚖️🗓️
Civil rights leaders, homeless activists, public health experts, faith groups, members of Congress and more all agree: we will never solve homelessness with jails and fines. #JohnsonVGrantsPass View the list of briefs filed in support of homeless rights: johnsonvgrantspass.com/amici
