When STATE SANCTIONED VIOLENCE happens, sometimes we aren't financially prepared for death. But what we do know is it takes a village to raise a child and there are now 3 more fatherless children here in Sacramento, due to the actions of @SacPolice.https://t.co/tEETlWljIh

Don't you dare step your foot into a @WaffleHouse again. Do you hear me?
Let me give you the facts here.
1. This couple never even received their food
2. It was a to-go order
3. They disputed a $1.50 charge on the receipt

An article came out in @TheLancet today that is flying under the radar but is absolutely critical to read.
It provides rare CAUSAL evidence showing structural racism causes poor health outcomes for black Americans.

This is ethnic cleansing. Antwon Rose was only 17 and he's at least the fifth Woodland Hills student murdered in the past two school years. Antwon's only crime was being Black and terrified. https://t.co/637pFIQSj5

This shooting points out the inherent racism of the @NRA’s agenda of guns for anyone, anywhere, any time – putting Black Americans in even more danger. It also highlights the inherent racism and extreme dangers of allowing guns on campus. https://t.co/hwXOAieoT8
