The video of Ivor Otieno’s murder is out & the narrative created by the press is critical. I’m calling for @RTDNEWS to remove @RTDMarkBowes from staff as he is anti-BLM protesting, anti-LGBT, anti-repro rights, anti-immigrant, anti-CRT, anti-1619 Project, climate change denier.

Recent reports show the situation in Texas youth prisons has reached a full-blown crisis. Kids are living in dangerous and inhumane conditions–trapped in their cells for up to 23 hours a day, using the bathroom in water bottles, and nearly half of them on suicide alert.

Today, we’re launching a new campaign. And it couldn’t be more urgent. We’re launching the #FinishThe5 campaign to tell leaders enough is enough: it’s time to close Texas’s 5 youth prisons and invest in kids, not in further harm. texascje.org/finish-the-5

Seems like City Council is patting themselves on the back for ignoring public comment and also ignoring the proposal suggested by a group appointed to come with the CRB. This CRB is co-opted & is a mistake. I regret ever having supported one.

Virginia incarcerates more people per capita than virtually any independent democracy on earth, higher than the national average @PrisonPolicy bit.ly/3Dfq0Si

"Now more than ever, we must invest in community-based strategies for genuine public safety that do not include law enforcement."

"Under this proposal, funding that should be going into education, transportation, housing directly to RVA residents will go to the police who surveil, arrest and incarcerate us more each year," she added.
