A secret system covers up and perpetuates police misconduct in California. We expose that system today. It took 3 yrs of digging by @UCBerkeleyIRP reporters @KateyRusch and @SmithCaseyA and superb editing by @demianbulwa and the whole @sfchronicle team. sfchronicle.com/projects/2024/…

Experts warned abortion bans would have consequences. Reporter @Ksurana6 has uncovered the cases of two women who died. The timeline of delayed care for Amber is gutting. She leaves behind a 6-year-old boy. propublica.org/article/georgi…

It's been almost a decade since California passed the Racial and Identity Profiling Act. Every year, the data shows the same thing. (Profiling! Lots of it.) sfchronicle.com/politics/artic…

Latinos will make up 70% of first-time homebuyers in the next 20 years. Still, lenders reject their mortgage applications at higher rates than white borrowers. Don't miss @fuhinvestigates + @LatinoUSA's new investigation. Produced by @noursaudio bit.ly/latinomortg

@marxjesse @SDSU @TheDailyAztec @KCRCollegeRadio Congratulations! You are perfect for this!!

“California passed a law to fix unsafe homeless shelters. Cities and counties are ignoring it” “Just 5 of California’s 58 counties have filed shelter reports. Only 4 of the state’s 478 cities filed reports:” Via @LAHepler calmatters.org/housing/homele…

40 Acres and a Mule wasn't just a broken promise. It was one of countless acts of land loss that continued for decades through eminent domain, over-taxation, and much more. What it would take to make reparations, in our final ep of 40 Acres and a Lie 🎧: revealnews.org/podcast/40-acr…

Another installment in @publicintegrity’s #40AcresandaLie from @aprilleticia motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

40 Acres and a Mule wasn’t just a broken promise. It was a betrayal of Black Americans that has fueled a racial wealth gap that continues today. This week on Reveal, the first in our three-part series with @publicintegrity: 40 Acres and a Lie. revealnews.org/podcast/40-acr…

The first episode of 40 Acres and a Lie is out. Please listen. revealnews.org/podcast/40-acr…

So excited for @AlexiaCampbell & @publicintegrity's team that this amazing project is out in the world! What a feat, digging for years to find answers to illuminate this reparations history about former slaves who received land grants, only to have them seized back.

Amazing and innovative journalism here from my former @publicintegrity colleagues on this project, it is well worth your time

Please listen to these important stories by @aprilleticia @AlexiaCampbell @pratheekrebala @nadzhamz and the amazing Reveal team lead by @cynrod.

In 40 acres and a lie, we tell the history of a federal program that gave formerly enslaved people land, only to take it back. My latest and last work for @publicintegrity w/@AlexiaCampbell @pratheekrebala @j_la28 @nadzhamz @cynrod and many more. More stories to come!

We just published our "40 Acres and a Lie" series. Please check it out. You will find great reporting by me & @aprilleticia @pratheekrebala @WesleyLowery & @nadzhamz . (More stories coming next week) motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

As part of #40acresandalie, @pratheekrebala built a tool to search nearly 1.8 million documents from the Freedmen's Bureau and other agencies: freedmen.motherjones.com/search

Listen to @AlexiaCampbell on @nprfreshair with host @TonyaMosley at 1 pm EST for a conversation about this groundbreaking series. motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

24,000 acres on 34 plantations. 100 family trees. 41 living descendants. Here's how we tracked down the true story of 40 acres—America’s biggest attempt at reparations and infamous broken promise. motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

Uncovered in this project are countless stories, including the wealthy white enclave that was once promised to Black families after the Civil War. Today, it's a lavish community where everyone rides golf carts and calls it “paradise.” motherjones.com/politics/2024/…

@MotherJones @AlexiaCampbell, @aprilleticia, and @pratheekrebala conducted genealogical research to locate living descendants of those who had received and lost land, marking the first time these living Black Americans learned of their shocking family history: motherjones.com/politics/2024/…
