Real problem: realtors don't show black people all the properties they qualify for. Fake problem: calling the master bedroom the master bedroom. Fix the real problem, realtors.

At the time of the posting of this tweet, this poll was sitting at 60% YES. Even the majority of Seattle City Councilmembers discussed the possibility positively today. This city is speaking up for abolitionist principles and it's wonderful to see the movement grow.

Prison populations are particularly vulnerable to the spread of COVID-19 because "basic disease prevention measures are either against the rules or simply impossible," says @keribla of @MarshallProj. "It's not always possible to wash your hands regularly."

On this day in 1904, hundreds of white people watched as a black man named Luther Holbert and an unidentified black woman were killed in Doddsville, Mississippi. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. Share this #racialinjustice calendar.eji.org/racial-inju…

If you think the reaction is serious to people with records wanting to vote, wait until you see the reaction to what’s coming next. We want to be able to rent apartments without being discriminated against. That’s the next frontier. @PrisonReformMvt @TarraSimmons5 @glennEmartin – at Washington, USA

.#RodneyReed's case is infuriating, yet by no means an isolated case--save a thought for cases just as deserving, however less publicized.
@GovAbbott, bypass the inhumane process of last ditch appeals relating to semantics, and address the real issue.
Reed is likely innocent.

#RodneyReed is a Innocent man. Do your research. The Police and Prosecutors should be ashamed of themselves. Not shocked for White Amerikkka. @GovAbbott doesn’t stop this. His comprehension level to read this case is more then questionable.
#RodneyReed was accused of sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl during the sentencing phase of his murder trial in 1998. This is, of course, a very disturbing allegation, but there were MAJOR problems with it. Here’s the context you need to understand the whole picture.
