A protest against the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, especially concerning women's rights and execution penalties against political prisoners.
It’s been four years since #BreonnaTaylor was killed by police. The system has not been held accountable.
The prison-industrial complex is modern-day slavery and must be abolished. One place to begin is having your states ban prison labor.
Support community conflict resolution and non-police emergency response.
Oppose the cop city being built in your state. Almost every one is constructing one.

RT @sandylocks: Last night’s use of #SayHerName by Marjorie Taylor Greene during the SOTU Address reflects a deeply offensive trend in right-wing politics – the intentionally misleading appropriation of justice-seeking demands from those who have historically been rendered voiceless.
I haven’t seen anyone talking about this.
She was MURDERED IN HER BED and 12 Amerikkkans couldn’t agree that’s a crime? #SayHerName#ACAB#illmerica#BreonnaTaylor
Holocaust survivor Gabor Mate speaks in defense of Palestine--and of the Jewish people in Israel and around the world who defend Palestinians.
"that in order to make this Jewish dream a reality we had to visit a nightmare on the local population...there was no land without a people, there were people living there for hundreds of years...some Palestinians may be descendants of ancient Jews."
During #BetsyDeVos tenure as Secretary of (dis)Education, she did many things, including defending a MAGAt college student who had been suspended for sexual harassment.
In case you missed the almost non-existing reporting, it happened again:
"California is a big state, but security guards shooting two young Black trans folx to death in retail stores within four months of each other? That’s something to notice."
#SayHerName – vor einem Jahr kam #JinaMahsaAmini in iranischer Haft ums Leben. Präsidentin Antje Grotheer: "Jina Mahsa Amini ist niemals vergessen, genauso wie die Menschen im Iran, die jeden Tag für Freiheit und Gleichberechtigung kämpfen. Ihnen gilt unsere Solidarität." #HBBue
I just watched a video of a Black FL Republican Rep Barnaby describing trans folks as 'mutants.' And now I want Rep Barnaby to suffer some consequences.
Barnaby is the kind of man I grew up with in the church and when I encounter men like him, it makes me want to grrrrrrrr. 🖐🏾 💥 🖐🏾 💥 🖐🏾 💥
But I hope our community is beginning to understand that the fight for trans visibility & rights isn't a Those People fight. As in, 'oh, this is just for those people.'
Uh-uh.
Or do we not want to talk about the rising murders of our Black trans sisters over the past several years - deaths at the hands of folks in our community.
I don't know who needs to hear it but the fight for Black liberation & life includes liberation & life for Black trans folx.
