@DamonTHewitt @RepTerriSewell @LawyersComm Thank you for your leadership @DamonTHewitt ! Love you back!

With the incredible @RepTerriSewell and @NicoleAustinHil in Alabama. Love these leaders! #Selma59

This radical 8th Circuit decision would essentially gut the remaining nationwide protections of the #VotingRightsAct by preventing anyone other than DOJ from enforcing them. This is deeply wrong, and it goes against decades of precedent and practice.

@JNelsonLDF @dr_yusefsalaam Fabulous! Democracy at its best!

For anyone who grew up in NYC under the cloud of the torment of the Central Park 5, tonight’s win by Yusef Salaam is the sweetest victory of them all. It says so much about the indestructible human spirit and this righteous Black man. Congratulations Councilman @dr_yusefsalaam!

@posey_erica Congratulations, Erica!

@symonemsnbc @CBCFInc @SymoneDSanders So excited to join you today @SymoneDSanders Thank you for the opportunity!

The @CBCFInc is gearing up for its Annual Legislative Conference! The foundation’s President & CEO @NicoleAustinHil joins @SymoneDSanders to discuss what the conference is about, and why it’s important to democracy.

🧵Lawmakers have only eight working days to hammer out a deal to keep the federal government open before the shutdown deadline. @RepJamesClyburn joins @SymoneDSanders to talk about this potential showdown and its impact on Americans.

The fight for Justice and equity lost a warrior with the passing of civil rights lawyer, advocate and trailblazer, Prof. Charles Ogletree. His work and vision will remain an example for us all to uphold and move forward!

Do not miss the opportunity to be in community with experts, lawmakers, advocates and change makers at our Annual Legislative Conference as we focus on empowering Black America by marching forward to Securing Our Democracy, Protecting Our Freedoms and Uplifting Our Culture!

Today, the course of racial justice progress in America has been thwarted with the SCOTUS ruling ending race-based affirmative action in college admissions. The promise of equal justice and opportunity for all has been broken. #CBCF #EqualityForAll

Today was a good day for our Democracy as Black voters in Alabama emerged victorious in an effort to expand their voting power in the state. Supreme Court Rejects Voting Map That Diluted Black Voters’ Power - The New York Times #votingispower nytimes.com/2023/06/08/us/…

A legacy that will live on in our work to advance the global Black community. #CBCF

It is with a heavy heart that I announce the passing of former @CBCFinc JCPAR Editorial Board member, Dr. William Spriggs. His courage to call out the disparities within our systems through research is evident in the legacy he leaves behind.

Paying homage today to the legacy of El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz on what would have been his 98th birthday.

Expelling elected officials from a legislative body for exercising free speech rights in the name of protecting the lives of children, our future leaders, is not what Democracy looks like." #TenneseeThree

For the second time in 48 hours our nation is processing yet another #massshooting making it clearer than ever — #gunviolence is an epidemic, and the time is NOW for common sense responses at all levels and from myriad voices to keep our communities safe.

50 years ago, the U.S. initiated a staggering increase in the prison population. I’m proud to join the "#50YearsAndAWakeUp: Ending The Mass Incarceration Crisis In America" movement. Learn more: sentencingproject.org/advocacy/50-ye…

Proud to be a Marylander on this historic day! Wes Moore was sworn-in Wednesday becoming Maryland's first Black governor, during a historic inauguration at the state capitol in Annapolis. wtop.com/maryland/2023/…

Having worked in my career on ending racial disparities in drug sentencing, it is a huge victory for DOJ to finish the work of achieving true parity in sentencing. Garland moves to end sentencing disparities for crack, powder cocaine - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

Thank you @Trevornoah for paying homage to Black women in the closing remarks of your final show. “If you want to truly learn about America, talk to Black women…” Mic dropped!

Thank you @SenatorWarnock for paying homage to the warriors who sacrificed so much for our democracy and the voting rights of all people: Cheyney, Schwerner, Goodman, John Lewis, Fannie Lou Hamer, Viola Liuzzo, Rev. Jim Reeb. May they rest in power.
