Columbus City Council vote tomorrow, voting on giving even more money to CPD. Would urge folks in the city to tap in with @thePBColumbus & follow their work.

DC statehood & Puerto Rico statehood are NOT the same issue. PR was colonized by the US, & deserves a BINDING process of self-determination. Imposing one’s status opinion on PR, instead of committing to uphold the results of a plebiscite, perpetuates the legacy of colonization.
My view: * DC statehood * Puerto Rico statehood * Merge the Dakotas into 1 state * Annex Delaware into Pennsylvania Stay at 50 states!

So often, bipartisanship is marketed as: a) something only “centrist moderates” are capable of, or b) giving up your principles to “get things done.” I couldn’t disagree more. You don’t have to abandon your principles to agree.Being curious about other people’s values helps,too.
HUD Secretary Ben Carson has backed @AOC's push to end "one strike" rules that target public housing tenants for eviction over minor drug offenses

PSA: If you stand with Indigenous and Black people, you will never again say “this isn’t America” when you see something that is racist or discriminatory or fueled by hate. Such remarks show you don’t acknowledge our experiences/ existence in America, a settler colonial state.

For those that guessed 12,000, you are correct. This extraordinarily low figure is due in part to the administration’s record low limit of only 30,000 refugees for the entire fiscal year. Thanks @RCUSA_DC for always keeping us updated with these figures throughout the year
We’re a little more than halfway through FY19, roughly how many refugees do you think were admitted to the US in the first half of the fiscal year? Stay tuned for the right answer!

Nothing says "perfect candidate to lead the most powerful nation in the world" like "I have no empathy"

To avoid looking completely + utterly out of touch w/ the reality our prison system: Instead of asking, “Should the Boston Bomber have the right to vote?” Try, “Should a nonviolent person stopped w/ a dime bag LOSE the right to vote?” Bc that question reflects WAY more people.

If you can convince people that another group is not human, they will be complicit in, and often lead, efforts to violate that group. It’s what Nazis said about Jews, what colonizers said about indigenous people, what power hungry Europeans said about Africans.

51 years later. Remembering the day he was assassinated. Reconnecting to continue his work. Recommitting to building his dream. True peace. Unconditional love. Unarmed truth. “Until justice rolls down like waters...” King. #MLK
