I'm a 36 year old father, brother and friend. My whole life was turned upside down and I was diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma in February. I have no family to call on. Only my community. I'm trying to raise enough money for my cancer treatments and medications and I need your help!

So I have 2 weeks till my treatment is scheduled. I can't reschedule again or I will have to wait 2 months and then start over with the first one. And that's not optimal because it's a very aggressive cancer and it's already progressing quick enough as it is. Please share this.

#Alabama’s legislators are planning to use $400 million in #COVID relief funds to build new prisons, but we can stop them. Tell Secretary Janet Yellen (Archived) to prohibit all states from using these funds for new prison construction.⬇️ cc: Communities Not Prisons Alabama Students Against Prisons bit.ly/3kPgxaT

"AL [is] fixing to spend 5x more COVID relief money on prison construction than on aid to hospitals and nursing homes... Our communities need the relief that ARPA was... designed to provide, not bigger prisons." LaTonya A. Tate Treasury Department, where are you? forbes.com/sites/morgansi…

From Alabama CURE: Alabama prisons are overcrowded with more than 1,100 people aged 65+ behind bars. People should not be judged on the "worst things they have ever done...everyone deserves a second chance". bit.ly/3IrzWIF

Despite outrage across the world about his LWOP sentence for a $9 robbery, Alabama lawmakers have done nothing to fix the habitual offender law & cases like Willie Simmons, yet Willie still writes me sometimes just to tell me thanks for exposing his case 2 years ago. -1

The dialogue needs to expand beyond the right to choose to have an abortion, to understand when we ignore prison sentences that bury black & poor women in prisons, that also is a reproductive injustice as it takes away their choice to have children.

Abortion bans disproportionately affect uterus owners of color. As Roe is overturned and the AL abortion ban injunction is lifted, Regions Bank Stephens Inc Raymond James Kay Ivey continue the mass incarceration of POCs through a plan to build 2 new mega prisons in AL
