April 25, 2014, was a historic day, marking the change of the city’s drinking water source to the Flint River from the Detroit system, which had delivered safe, clean water to the Genesee County city for nearly 50 years. bridgemi.com/guest-commenta…
Opinion | An awful law led to Flint water disaster. Why it is still in place? | Bridge Michigan bridgemi.com/guest-commenta…
Today marks 10 years since Flint - while under state management - switched its water from Lake Huron to the Flint River, setting in motion a crisis that’s become synonymous with the city’s name. A decade later, wounds are still deep + frustrations endure. detroitnews.com/in-depth/news/…
Engaging with student activism and grappling with different, even painful, ideas and world views is an essential part of the University learning experience, and administrators have a responsibility to allow students to openly express their political views.aclumich.org/en/press-relea…

The @MIStateBar also used this opportunity to remind the Michigan Senate about the critical importance of passing HB 4630 to provide children in Michigan with access to legal representation, as required by the MI & US Constitutions, without further delay. #MILeg

Freedom of the press is critical to our democracy. Retaliation against journalists covering student protests isn't just wrong — it's illegal.

Our struggles are connected and go beyond borders. Repro justice and LGBTQIA liberation here, there, and everywhere.
One of the world's harshest anti-LGBTQ laws was just upheld in Uganda in part citing the Dobbs ruling as a recent model “where the Court considered the nation’s history & traditions... to over-rule the broader right to individual autonomy.”
Last week, CFSY’s board of directors and executive leadership team met for our in-person board meeting. We’re so lucky to have such a dedicated and passionate group of leaders committed to ending the barbaric practice of juvenile life without parole and other extreme sentences.
The only person who knows what’s best for you is YOU. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise, including the anti-abortion lawmakers who are so desperate to dictate what we do with our bodies and lives.
BREAKING: Lakeland, Florida has disabled a dangerous facial recognition function that would have allowed the government to use video cameras to identify and track anyone who walked down the sidewalk in real-time. This is a huge win for our right to privacy.
