Yes, this! Brings to mind a similar contrast in coverage in 1985/1986 between coverage of an earthquake in Mexico (10,000 died) & the explosion on the Challenger (7). Both tragic, but... 5 Deaths at Sea Gripped the World. Hundreds of Others Got a Shrug. nytimes.com/2023/06/23/wor…

Must be happening pretty widely, because there are facilities in Illinois that keep locking down because they're 'short staffed.' Unjust and inhumane! #Abolition

New York is sadly not unique. The carceral system is violent and broken. Prisons don't accomplish what citizens think they do. #Humanity Guards Brutally Beat Prisoners and Lied About It. They Weren’t Fired. nytimes.com/2023/05/19/nyr…

Tina Turner was an icon, whom we loved for her voice, her dancing, and her spirit. As we honor her, let’s also reflect on her resilience, and think about all the greatness that can follow our darkest days. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us, Tina. You’re simply the best.

On this day in 1796, a newspaper ad was placed seeking the return of an enslaved Black woman, Ms. Judge, who fled George Washington's household while in Pennsylvania. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. calendar.eji.org/racial-injusti…

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but reforming the criminal legal system won’t lead to more crime. Have we learned nothing from the “tough on crime” policies that failed in the past?

Talked to the sister of a man who died in an Alabama prison, he served 35 years on a wrongful conviction. Died of cancer & mysterious symptoms after he fell while shackled. The cause of death should just say death by incarceration. 💔

Fair and speedy trial is definitely not a guarantee. Sounds particularly problematic in Georgia. All kinds of wrong!

On this day in 1899, a white mob in Lee County, Georgia, lynched a Black man named Mitchell Daniel for “talking too much” about the brutal lynching of another Black man days earlier. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. calendar.eji.org/racial-injusti…

There are few subjects about prison abuses and corruption that haven’t been studied thoroughly. It’s all out there. The problem isn’t lack of knowledge. It’s that we live in a country that believes torturing ppl is valid if they made mistakes and we don’t try to think otherwise.

When donald trump ran in 2016, he promised he would protect people with preexisting conditions. He didn’t. That he would lower middle class taxes. He didn’t. That he would pass an infrastructure bill. He didn’t. That he would repeal & replace Obamacare. He didn’t. That he would…

Day 104/105 and I wonder what has happened to make people care more for animals than human beings. We get unanimous support to ban torture of animals, but have little heartburn putting chronically ill people in cages when holding something in their hand we deem illegal.

We've seen the damage that can be done at the federal level. And it is horrifying to think of what could still be done if we don't put an end to this. Join our fight to #StopExecutions and #AbolishtheDeathPenalty once and for all! @MarshallProj themarshallproject.org/2023/04/22/flo…

One thing I have learned about the "Criminal Legal System" The word Justice should never Ever be used in the same sentence... as it has absolutely Nothing to do with it.
