I wonder what “Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Anti-Racism” organizations across the US say about Palestinian Human Rights?

Exactly. The misconception that affirmative action meant unqualified people have been admitted into college solely because of their race was never true and is quite frankly an ignorant interpretation. Thank you @joyannreid for setting the record straight and sharing your truth!

Israeli forces are now blocking ambulances from reaching the dozens of wounded Palestinians after at least eight people were killed in Jenin.
Congress must stop funding this violent Israeli apartheid regime.

Floridas HCA Hospitals are dangerously understaffed resulting in reduced quality of care, risk to patients lives, and yes, even deaths. All the while HCA boasted profits in excess of 16 billion dollars over the last 3 years. Let's be sure @HCAhealthcare gets the message that this is entirely unacceptable.
Enough is enough, @HCAhealthcare! America, we have a care crisis. HCA Healthcare hospitals need safer staffing. Our communities and patients are at risk. #HCACareCrisis

One parent could get my poetry banned from classrooms. And yet one country can't ban assault rifles from massacring them.

Allowing 18-20 year olds to carry firearms will cause more death. In this age group:
- Leading cause of death
- Suicide rate increased 41% in last decade
- 18-20 year olds commit firearm homicides 3x more often than 21 & older @Everytown @MorrisReports

Remember, no matter how disturbing, disappointing, terrifying, concerning or unbelievable, events may be, Black history is American history.

Racism is difficult to define. Systemic racism goes unnoticed. If we are to move forward to a more inclusive profession we must work to understand and recognize the racism that lies deep in our foundations. Pictures speak 1000 words.
