The assault on reproductive freedom is atrocious for most people, but Black women are more likely to seek abortions, more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes, and more likely to be criminalized & imprisoned for their pregnancy outcomes. Then the state violence spreads.

Not sure who needs to hear this, but the idea that reproductive rights are a form of eugenics is itself racist. It assumes that people of color and their families are incapable of deciding what’s best for them, making informed health decisions and being self-determined.

This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Buffalo. This is Ruth Whitfield, 86. Her son, the former Buffalo Fire Commissioner, said she was on her way from visiting her husband in a nursing home and stopped at the store to get something to eat.

Today at @cranebeachmass my 9-year-old daughter nearly drowned while I was watching her, in full view of two life guard stations, on an uncrowded and overcast day. Drowning doesn’t look like drowning, and I hope a lot of people read this and remember the signs. 🧵

Ketanji Brown Jackson is giving a mini history lesson on the 14th Amendment, the Civil Rights Act of 1866, and the need to put formerly enslaved Black people on equal footing with white people. “The entire point of the amendment was to secure rights for the freed former slaves.”

College students across America are standing up in support of race-conscious admissions. Dismantling these policies could have devastating implications for students of color as well as entire student bodies — and their collective futures. #AffirmDiversity
