RT if you think our kids deserve quality schools and public school workers deserve a better living wage. 😌🫶

This is HUGE! Fmr LAUSD Sup speaks to invaluable role @SEIULocal99 played during pandemic & that they deserve better from @LASchools. These workers deserve our respect and support - now more than ever!

#Solidarity is how we win the schools that LA students deserve, that our communities deserve, that front line education workers deserve! #99Strong #ReadyToStrike #UnionsForAll #United4LA #CleanSafeSupportiveSchools #IBelieveInLAUSD

Congratulations to @cerisecastle, the 2023 American Mosaic Journalism Prize Awardee at @HSFdn. In 2021 she published “A Tradition of Violence,” a 15-part series revealing deputy gangs operating inside LA County Sheriff’s Department with @KnockDotLA. Info > bit.ly/3J5ZJHc

Meet Megan McClaire, the Chief Deputy Director for @lapublichealth, who leads by example in promoting health equity with a focus on community engagement and collaboration. She works to address inequities faced by county residents. #WomenInHealthcare #CommunityHealth #HealthEquity

NEW VIRTUAL TOWN HALL: Register today and join us to discuss #SB50! This crucial new bill would limit law enforcement’s ability to conduct minor traffic stops that lead to police violence, undermine community safety, and waste billions of public dollars. us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

It was not about a single endorsement or contributor or ad buy. It was about the movement & the wisdom/power of experienced (women of color) organizers. @KarenBassLA will now take this playbook to a whole new level to lead LA out of this crisis and into a NEW DAY!

Humbled to be on stage to celebrate the inauguration of Madam Mayor @KarenBassLA. Awed by her wisdom, courage and tenacity thru the campaign/transition. Excited to see where she leads LA in this critical moment. And holy cow that was @StevieWonder - like 20 ft away!

“The most impt job right now is the organizer” @dr_robertkross @CalEndow. So amazing to hear the head of a major foundation affirm the critical role of organizers to our democracy & the need to invest in powerbuilding infrastructure. Thank u for your leadership @dr_robertkross

Why she gotta curse so much!?! But yes....대한민국 INDEED!

@kennethmejiaLA excellent decision. I’ve have always admired @urbanistcole’s work

It’s #GivingTuesday! @CatalystCali powers us toward a CA that lives & breathes equity and works for ALL. Will you invest in this vision by making a donation? Your contribution makes a direct impact in the fight for racial & economic justice. Donate now! bit.ly/CatalystCalifo…

@keiryu30489325 @JeongPark52 This is the most BS whitewashing of a vicious colonial period in Japan’s history. A bedtime stories fed to children. No reasoning adult accepts this fiction. Japan attempted colonial control of much of East Asian for decades before it finally got its hands on Korea.

@JeongPark52 Korea was not invaded by Japan. Korea was annexed, not colonized. After the Russo-Japanese War, Korea could not run the country by its own strength and asked Japan to annex Korea.

This year and every year, we’re thankful for YOU – the racial justice advocates, supporters, and donors who fuel our work. Together, we were able to secure major victories for low-income and communities of color in 2022. Check out this recap and message of thanks from our team!
