THREAD: This month, the @CatalystCali Racial & Identity Profiling Advisory (RIPA) Board released its latest report, revealing alarming racial disparities in policing. Communities of color and youth with disabilities continue to face disproportionate harm. Let’s break it down. ⬇️

This story makes clear some lawmakers are putting their electoral prospects (and fear of facing the brunt of law enforcement lobbyists coming for them) in front of the safety of students in our schools.

Racial data is more than just numbers – it tells the real story of who has resources and proper representation. But the categories we use today are flawed, often erasing entire communities. Discover why accurate race data is critical for equity. bit.ly/472SjQT

The data is clear: when law enforcement is required to come onto campus, those that they choose to arrest are disproportionately people w/disabilities & students of color.
It's time to sign AB 2441 to protect students & teachers.

Notable - from nearly five years ago:
Trump is fighting tooth & nail to deny those fleeing dangerous situations their right to seek asylum in our nation. We should uphold our moral responsibility & enforce our immigration laws with dignity—not turn away those fleeing violence, war, & poverty.

In numerous states, foster care youth entitled to survivor and disability benefits find state agencies claiming these benefits without notifying the child or relatives. Erin Moriarty talks with young people who were denied tens of thousands of dollars. cbsn.ws/3TOM2lF

Newly released analysis of law enforcement stop data in California (2022) continue to show wide racial disparity in how stops & enforcement is applied.
Black students were much more likely (20%) to be handcuffed than any other racial or ethnic group.
