A gentle reminder today to live your best life from a place of Liberated Leadership

Are you a BIPOC leader in homeless services? Do you know one? Please spread the word and/or consider applying for the Racial Equity Fellowship, a 9-month fellowship experience for BIPOC leaders in the Homeless Response Sector across Los Angeles County!

One of the least known but most powerful positions in all of LA politics is the District Attorney. It’s on the ballot this year and right up there at the top as one of the most important races we’ll vote on. Here’s a quick look into the office’s scope of power.

Hey LA! We are kicking off our organizing events today! Join @EricGarcetti, @SantiagoAD53, @SenHJMitchell, @KellyMcCreary, & me 😁 as we share why we need to end the ban on affirmative action in order to level the playing field for all Californians. vote16.info/LAKickoff

Angelenos! #YesOnProp16 is kicking off organizing events in LA this week. Prop 16 will end the ban on affirmative action and it will take all of us to make sure it passes this November! Join me this Thursday! vote16.info/LAKickoff

AAPI-owned businesses earn more in public contracts in cities where affirmative action is legal like Atlanta & Chicago than in cities where it isn’t, like San Francisco. Join us this Thursday to find out how #YesOnProp16 can close that gap here in CA! vote16.info/sept10

📢 A MILESTONE! We’re one step closer to putting #ReimagineLA on the #Nov2020Ballot ! @LACountyBOS just voted 4-1 to move forward with the @reimagine_la measure! The charter amendment will re-allocate net county costs into #DirectCommunityInvestment & #ATI for years to come! 👏

Thank you @SheilaKuehl, @mridleythomas, @HildaSolis, and @SupJaniceHahn for listening to thousands speaking out for change and taking the first step toward putting #ReimagineLA on the November ballot. It’s long overdue for L.A. County to have a budget that reflects our values.

#PublicDefenders are witness to a history of racial injustice. We must recognize, affirm and declare that racism is a matter of public health in #LACounty. Thank you @mridleythomas for your leadership in creating an #AntiRacistLA

Pretty sure @JoeBiden advisers not thrilled that their candidate just answered a domestic violence question by saying we gotta punch it out. Wrong analogy. #DemocraticDebate
