Black women are 2.5 times more likely to die by homicide and by gun violence than white men. They are also more likely to be sexually harassed at work, while being gaslighted, shamed and silenced.

Private violence against Black women, girls, & femmes is now a public health crisis. We must center Black women’s experiences of private violence & stress the need for an intersectional response to the threat. Here are 5 things to know about Black women & private violence ⬇️

Right-wing pastor Perry Stone delivered a sermon yesterday to a large crowd, promising there's "absolutely no way they will ever get this virus." Give it 30 seconds. It's worth it. I promise.

We must never forget Viola Liuzzo, who was murdered by klansmen in Alabama 55 years ago today.

Right after Bloody Sunday, Viola Liuzzo left her family in Detroit and drove alone to Alabama to help with the voting rights movement. #OTD, she was ferrying marchers back to Selma when a car filled with Ku Klux Klan members pulled alongside her car, and shot her. #RestInPower

My mom, worried about the many free and reduced priced lunch kids in West Virginia, just suggested that school bus drivers keep their routes but deliver meals Mon-Fri. And it’s... kinda brilliant? “Twitter that, maybe someone will listen!” she says.
