“The white liberal must see that the Negro needs not only love but also justice. It is not enough to say, “We love Negroes, we have many Negro friends.” They must demand justice for Negroes. Love that does not satisfy justice is no love at all.” Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

The Denver program to send social workers instead of police (STAR) has responded to over 2,200 calls low-level/intox/MH calls. They have never called for police back-up due to a safety issue. Never. Think about that.

A few months ago, in that blurry haze of new motherhood, I left my infant daughter Eureka on the couch for just a few seconds. She rolled and slipped and tumbled to the floor, hitting her head, then burst out crying. /a thread to #SaveMelissaLucio

Blir, såhär efter ett halvårs cancerbehandling, absurt att se en partiledardebatt där invandrare blir konsekvent kallade för problem. En klar majoritet av läkarna, sjuksköterskorna och undersköterskorna som räddade mitt liv kom från länder som Iran, Irak Somalia, Island, Chile.
