Yesterday ⁦NPR reported on “zombie” newspapers. Guess what was delivered to my Chatham home on Chicago’s Southside today? This “paper” is fake news designed to confuse & suppress voter turnout targeting Black voters. Use trusted news⁩ and #vote npr.org/2022/10/31/113…

In a 7-2 vote SCOTUS upholds the Indian Child Welfare Act!!! This is good news. #ICWA is a vitally important law to protect indigenous families but it also means SCOTUS didn’t buy into the conservative twisting of the Equal Protection Clause #ICWASTANDS npr.org/2023/06/15/118…

#OnThisDay in 1865, General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, TX to read Order No. 3, which affirmed the end of slavery in the states of the former Confederacy. This momentous occasion has been celebrated as #Juneteenth — a combination of “June” & “19th” — for over 150 years.
