The death penalty is flawed, racist, and unjust.
It has no place in America or anywhere else in the world.
Abolish it.
There are some lines that never leave me, like “we are each other’s harvest,” “praise the rain, it brings more rain,” and the last line of this poem.

Saw this at a Hyde Brothers book sale at a local winery and was like “HEY! I follow her on twitter!!” Hey @MsBDowns, Hyde Brothers is excited for you to come back to FW!
It’s Memorial Day. Aaron Bushnell set himself on fire 3 months ago and I wrote this the next day. #freepalestine
In addition to doing this in protest and solidarity, literally no one should go to work where their bosses have cops beat them and snipers point guns at them??? Ever???

Angela Davis dropped by to show her support for the students at Auraria Campus here in Denver.
Between the level of debt incurred *and* the calling in of over-enthusiastic cops to peaceful protests at universities across the country—from Ivy league to smaller state schools—why would folks go to college? I make the same hourly at a brewery as I do in my “professional” work.

Sniper on the roof of the IMU.
Absolutely unhinged response to a nonviolent encampment by a murderous and paranoid police state.
Cried a thousand times this morning and 999 of them were from videos of professors and students having each other’s backs.
