Next week will be the 35th anniversary of Len Bias' death. He was more than a basketball star and emblem for the War on Drugs' failures. Poem: Len Bias, a Bouquet of Flowers, and Ms. Brooks nytimes.com/2021/05/27/mag…

Love seeing Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸 proudly claiming their legacy and commitment to a more fair and racially justice sentencing system. Working together we can do so much more! #EliminateMandatoryMinimums #EndLifeImprisonment

Powerful.

Justice Roundtable Convener Nkechi Taifa stretches her wings & flys!!!

White House endorsement of the #Equal Act is not “remarkable.” It is so long overdue in light of all the evidence as to be underwhelming. Ending all mandatory minimums wd be more bold in this day at this time! But by all means pass the baby step. ⁦ washingtonpost.com/politics/biden…

Correct. And today, it is such low -hanging fruit that to stop at that and diddle daddle on more wd be absolutely disingenuous.

I’m against underage vaping but it must be addressed via public health. NO MORE policies that may be well-intentioned yet result in over-criminalization & racism. Remember that vicious Ocean City viral video? ⁦Black Police Experience⁩ ⁦The Law Enforcement Action Partnership (LEAP)⁩ oversight.house.gov/legislation/he…

Let’s not give overzealous cops more tools to stop Black people! The failed war on drugs is morphing into other areas. Learn from the past. Health not punishment.

Second Look reforms enable extreme sentences to be re-evaluated and are a key part of the solution to end mass incarceration and tackle its racist roots. It’s time to take A #SecondLook at Injustice. bit.ly/3bDdTzJ

The ‘94 Crime Bill was steeped in anti-Black rhetoric that reinforced false, dehumanizing narratives. I joined Pod For The Cause’s limited edition #VisionForJustice series to discuss how, 27 years later, it continues to tear communities apart. Listen: apple.co/3kiStgo

Ahhhh yes!!!!!

The First Step Act's provision giving people in federal prisons the ability to seek compassionate release allowed for the release of more than 3,000 people during the pandemic, but overlooks a small group of people convicted of crimes before November 1987. n.pr/3xubkIl

Extreme sentencing includes cruelly forcing people back into prisons who have proven they can be successful at home. #KeepThemHome pbs.org/newshour/show/…
