In Alabama, as described in my last tweet, a man named Chris Revis—housed on death row—has been waiting close to six years for a trial. A trial date still hasn’t been set in his case, and he tells his family he’s been told that his trial will be scheduled once Covid-19 “is over.” https://twitter.com/defendermurad/status/1296765562157244417

The idea here is to have recognized trained paralegals in the prisons. Our services helps those with no other resources $$$ to obtain justice or challenge civil rights violations as prisoners. Back here that's damn near everybody that needs us

We have decided if they force this at us where I'm at we will be taking over the prison. And openly encouraging wide spread (different states) take overs -- planning ongoing already. Fuck that, we already enslaved, we refuse to be a lab rat. Expect a reaction: EXTREME violence https://twitter.com/OaklandAboSol/status/1292204368473681920

This year, when NYers needed it most, @nycgov had the opportunity and responsibility to address systemic inequity by finally passing a budget to #buildCOMMUNITIES. Once again, they chose to fund law enforcement.

I found out the other day that if you buy property, you can give the land to your local tribal council, you'd still be able to do what you want with the land but you'd pay taxes to the tribe instead of the state
I'm obviously watering this down, but food for thought

It has been an honor to have so many of the conversations we've had on the show, but this one was special in a different way. It's not every day you get the opportunity to contribute to the oral history of an organization like SNCC. Thank you to Jennifer Lawson and Charlie Cobb! https://twitter.com/MAKCapitalism/status/1292789635270279168

As I’ve written: Despite being billed as the land of the free and home of the brave, the 🇺🇸 has nonetheless had a long, shameful, enduring history of savagely segregating our poorest, most vulnerable citizens, disproportionately people of color, in cells.(https://www.google.com/amp/s/thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/civil-rights/302788-solitary-confinement-saps-our-countrys-collective-conscience%3famp) https://twitter.com/bshelburne/status/1291050314204839937

@AngelaAllenBell Still the majority-white death councils convene, and still, even long after McClesky’s execution, long after a black president in the White House, their top quarry remains the poorest, darkest, worst-represented defendants.
