“‘The Dream’ is not a feel-good story. It is the story of resistance and struggle. This is why few things could be more offensive than sanitizing [Dr. King’s] words and using them with the intention of pacifying the oppressed.” bit.ly/2FLtcY3 pic.twitter.com/zQ1GP8MAe0

Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-VT) is standing up for our #righttoboycott, without exceptions for economic action in support of Palestinian rights. He's calling out the legislation that has been introduced over and over again in the Senate this month for what it is: unconstitutional. pic.twitter.com/cLM10f8qsT

Israel's new apartheid road is a symbol of its blatantly discriminatory practices that seek not only to segregate Palestinians, but deprive them of their lands and resources while creating illegal Jewish-only settlement enclaves on stolen land. bit.ly/2Fwzmfx pic.twitter.com/sbjQPFrhmt

Sen. @ChrisMurphyCT wants to rewrite the unconstitutional anti-boycott bill that was already defeated three times, in order to gain "bipartisan and bicameral" support. Call him TODAY and tell him that progressive politics have no room for compromise on constitutional rights. pic.twitter.com/zCZ2ZCjm4P
