14 children. 1 teacher.
Our hearts break for the parents, students, and teachers of Uvalde, Texas — a town that's 60 miles from the Mexican border and 70% Latino.
No child, no parent, no community should have to go through what happened today. We MUST act to #EndGunViolence.

Thousands of Haitian migrants came to #DelRio #Texas seeking refuge and shelter. They were met with serious human rights violations by U.S. officials. Join us and @rfkhumanrights in emailing @POTUS directly and demanding an end to #Title42 today!

This is horrifying, and I’m going to thread resources below about how you can help in this situation and/or what resources you can use if you’re an affirming parent or educator in Texas right now

Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers. He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.

Under Biden-Harris, @ICEgov has continued their racist & cruel agenda - deporting & expelling over 1.8M immigrants in 11 months. @POTUS @DHSgov we demand you end all deportations! There's no time to waste and you have full discretion to stop deportations. ctt.ec/5PwN9+

After 2+ years of pandemic living, I’ve turned into a cynical, one-dimensional shell of my former self. I’m tired, anxious, angry, and afraid. And in the process, I’ve lost the ability to love myself and others around me. I want to find my way back to kindness, to hope — 1/3

The Omnicron variant is just another example of how COVID will be prolonged if rich nations and Big Pharma keep blocking vaccine distribution.

@GovStitt Oklahoma cannot execute an innocent man. Please save Julius Jones’ life and take the recommendation of your Pardon and Parole Board and commute his sentence to life with the possibility of parole. #JusticeforJulius

Latinas make just 57 cents, on avg, for every $1 made by white men. We're outraged. Are you? Tell Congress it’s time to join us to #BuildBackBetter for Latinas and our future. On #LatinaEqualPay Day we are DEMANDING more. Join us! Swipe up to take action: bit.ly/LEPD-ACTION.

More than half of Latina mothers are breadwinners in families with children under 18. Eliminating the #wagegap would provide much-needed income to Latinas whose wages sustain their households. #LatinaEqualPay #LatinaEqualPayDay

#EmmettTill was dehumanized, tortured and murdered by white supremacists 66 years ago today.
We must never forget Emmett’s life, the brutal way it was ended, the past and present dangers of racism, and the courage of his mother, Mamie Till-Mobley.

This is disappointing to see.
First, seeking asylum at any US border is a 100% legal method of arrival.
Second, the US spent decades contributing to regime change and destabilization in Latin America. We can’t help set someone’s house on fire and then blame them for fleeing.

Please watch this.
Mother Viola still fighting for justice at 107 years old. The trauma she endured at a young age still lives with her every single day.
