It's Friday and a good day to grab tickets to next week's event! It's one you really don't want to miss! Many thanks to our sponsors. None of this would be possible without their deep commitment to the thriving of Black single mothers! thecurrentproject.org/events
3a. Lopez spoke with @AlishaLGordon of @thecurrentproj for the article, who warns that there will be political costs if Congress continues to ignore families. We recently spoke with Gordon about the importance of listening to Black mothers. Listen here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sei…
Popped in to talk to Reec Swiney at Majic 107.5/97.5 about all things @thecurrentproj and next month's event -- and we had a TIME. I love being able to bring my full [Decatur] self to a conversation. Thank you, bro! #AtlantaRadio #Atlanta youtube.com/watch?v=r5mloC…
It's our day, y'all 🍑 How are you celebrating the A today?
It's #404Day and no better day to grab a ticket to The Current Ball! Link to grab your ticket: thecurrentproject.org/events A photo to trick the algorithm. #atlanta
Research has shown the #ChildTaxCredit expansion had the greatest impact in states w low costs of living/ high poverty rates. Sadly, as CTC comes to a vote, lawmakers from these very states seem to be disconnected from the economic plight of families. pbs.org/newshour/show/…

A nationwide survey by @thecurrentproj asked Black single moms their opinions on the direction of the country, their social and economic well-being, and issues like school choice. @dstarwriter59 joins @RaviMGupta to discuss the findings on the latest ep of Lost Debate.
This was GOOD.
Per data from @thecurrentproj, 77% of Black single mothers say they have a need for government benefits but find that their income is too high to qualify for such benefits, but not enough to comfortably make ends meet. We must do more to support "Middler Moms" in our communities.

Parents of cis Black boys, what are you doing to help your sons not turn aggressive and violent when they lose to or are rejected by women? Black femicide is up to 5 a day in the U.S. and it is intraracial violence. Recently, a young woman was killed for winning a b ball game.
