#Nonviolence pursues heart change, legislative change, cultural change and systemic change. It’s concerned about elevating consciousness and eradicating unjust and inhumane conditions. It is not passive or cowardly. pic.twitter.com/fd2YsFXoNA

If you have to oppress others to get there, it’s not a win [But equity and justice are not oppression]. We all win or nobody does.

#WhenTheySeeUs, @Ava DuVernay's limited Netflix series, follows the men known as the Central Park Five.
Last month, @LesterHoltNBC sat down with the men to discuss their experience and what they gained from working with DuVernay.

We can build coalitions to create a more peaceful, just and humane world. We can vote + enact legislation to move us toward the goal. Study issues of injustice. Develop strategies. Drive out hate with love. Overcome inhumanity with nonviolence, which is noncooperation with evil. pic.twitter.com/qqMGy5ytaM

When you watch @WhenTheySeeUs, know that it is not a history lesson. It is a deeply tragic, masterful reminder that the criminal justice system (consider these 3 words separately & together) has long dehumanized & devastated Black & Brown people. Love to The Exonerated Five. @ava pic.twitter.com/KniQoplUxD

The horrific case dramatized in DuVernay’s series was not a 1,000-year flood event, belonging to the country’s past. Elements of what led to the Central Park Five wrongful convictions are recurrent and ongoing features of American justice.

Everybody's comfortable with talking about things like love, justice, peace and freedom as abstract concepts...
...but then folks get uncomfortable & drag their feet soon as it comes time to actually challenge the evil of racism & white supremacy.
I'm looking at Christians 👀

New Orleans chef and civil rights icon Leah Chase, who created the city's first white-tablecloth restaurant for black patrons, ignored city segregation laws and introduced countless tourists to Southern Louisiana Creole cooking, died Saturday at age 96. trib.al/cNKzaCe

As tough as it is, I hope #WhenTheySeeUs becomes required viewing in middle schools & high schools across the country.
It’s a tough story to process b/c it’s real, it was wrong & for so many it’s familiar, but @ava told it beautifully.

This is the MS St. Louis. It carried 936 Jewish refugees around the world during WW2 to find them safe refuge.
The US didn’t take any in.
In the end, most resettled in Europe, in countries later invaded by Germany.
227 were killed.
Yes, Jared, it makes a difference. twitter.com/jgreendc/statu… pic.twitter.com/XT8VgEYi6F

There is LOVE. If your life circumstances allow it, it’s okay to take a break from bad news and to be gently shaken into BEING good news. I’m hopeful. Love to you all.
