Living with a #criminalrecord carries thousands of “collateral consequences,” which means doing anything is harder. The pandemic has only worsened these consequences for the 1 in 3 Americans who has some type of criminal record. Our new audio series explores the impact. ▶️

A lot of well-meaning people look down on those brainwashed by Fox News but are unable to see how New York Times and other for-profit media does similar things to them. The mythologies differ, but they are just as ideological, and their role is to preserve structural inequality.

This year Mayor London Beed will appoint 3 school board members, a city attorney, a supervisor, and a district attorney. She cut her office of housing budget by 20% What happens now has to be on the Mayor. No more passing the buck. We can't afford anymore of these distractions

This is a jaw-dropping data point: “SFPD continues to arrest a number of Black people equal to the entire Black population of the city every 87 months.”

1. OUR NEW REPORT: SF’s $689M police dept. fails to solve crimes, arrests Black residents at the highest rate of any major CA city, and reports faulty data. cjcj.org/news/13268

maybe the underlying reason for “mental health” is the trauma of living in a world of racialized capitalism.

all research without organizing is extractive. do the work and “research” is inevitable. you’ll know a community when you make a commitment to that community.

1. There’s been a media reckoning of the Uvalde PD, but only bc the horrors of that case led to natl scrutiny. But copaganda goes on unquestioned. Here’s a line-by-line breakdown of a routine example from yesterday by @SamBaderNews @CameronKiszla @KTLA ktla.com/news/local-news/ont…
Screenshot. Image — police sirens. Text -After a driver failed to yield to a traffic stop, they became the subject of a police pursuit that ended with their death, police said.

For every cop standing in a hallway next to a classroom doing nothing during a massacre, there are 3 cops tackling parents outside school, 9 cops lying about what the other cops are doing, and 27 cops spying on gun control activists to prevent social change. "Exponential growth."

Kinda nuts that the Met Gal theme is the gilded age and behind the scenes Conde Nast workers are putting in unpaid overtime to make the event happen while they still haven't gotten union recognition. It's a little on the nose.

Here's a fun game. It's called Karl Marx or the Bible. It's simple. There's a few quotes and you have to figure out if they come from Marx or the Bible. 🧵

“Dacari’s past does not open him up to abuse” Seems like the system is always prosecuting Black men even when they’re not on trial. Abolish policing & prisons.‼️

We are beyond excited for our fellow civic tech workers @Nava_United! ✊🎉 Together we will raise the bar for our industry to sustainably serve the most vulnerable.
Nava United@Nava_United3 Feb 2022
Today we are proud to stand together and ask @navapbc leadership for voluntary recognition of our union. As a union we will build a stronger, more sustainable organization for our staff, our clients, and—most importantly—the people we serve.
Text of voluntary recognition letter, with logo at the top: Dear Rohan Bhobe, This is a pivotal moment for Nava. We are excited to notify you that a supermajority of eligible employees have joined together to form Nava United, a union affiliated with the Office and Professional Employees International Union (OPEIU) Tech Workers Union Local 1010. We are writing to request voluntary recognition of our union, and we authorize OPEIU Local 1010 to represent us for collective bargaining. In the event you do not proceed with the voluntary recognition process, we will ask the National Labor Relations Board to hold an election. We believe that forming our union will promote transparency, ensure equity, increase staff well-being and retention, attract new talent, and add to the long list of reasons why we are proud to work at Nava. As a union, we will build a stronger, more sustainable organization for our staff, our clients, and—most importantly—the people we serve (See website for the rest)

PHL Service Design Studio@DesignStudioPHL2 Feb 2022
There are many colleagues who helped lay the groundwork for our team. Without their advocacy & insight, we wouldn’t be where we are now. One of those colleagues is @aditisjoshi — who was a service design fellow in 2018. Enjoy our conversation. 🥳 bit.ly/3L64iBB

In conversation with Aditi Joshi | Service Design Studio

Aditi Joshi was a service design fellow in 2018. We recently caught up with her, and this post is an edited version of that conversation.

Interviewed and hired on the spot, offered $20 an hour contingent on a background check. I disclose, they rescind. This makes the 24th rejection. Someday this will stop. There is not an employee shortage there is a second chance shortage. #hireus
