“This is ... Much of the change didn’t happen in the walls of congress, it was and it MUST still be ... This is a remarkable time in our country.. A time where silence and inaction are condemning the oppression of communities of color. ‼️

Jennifer Epps-Addison is kicking off our morning plenary with some words that are making me cry - encouraging & reminding us that democracy is not static. It requires constant participation & pressure to make sure it is equitable and creates positive change for people.

“When we see white violence and white nationalism in this country we have an urge to say that is not who we are” Yet our democracy looks like Concentration camps & the investment in the criminilization of Black and Brown youth

As we take a minute of silence to remember the lives we’ve lost at the hands of ICE + CBP, reminds us that: “We all deserve the freedom to live in safety, we all deserve the freedom to move, we all deserve the freedom to stay in our homes.”
