I wrote about the grim reality when it comes to anti-Muslim programs. Bloomberg won't apologize for NYPD surveillance because no other politician ever has. For years, politicians implemented Islamophobic programs. None apologized. No one held accountable. huffpost.com/entry/bloomber…
Being a white savior will not end gun violence and neither will white fragility.
Covert racism can be more egregious and dangerous than blatant racism #BlackLivesMatter #womensmarchsowhite #covertracism @BLMLA @LACANetwork @WP4BL @DocMellyMel
We’re heading into this long weekend like Reema of @MovementVote! Our votes are for #BLM, #immigrants and #ourstreets always. Join the #MyMuslimVote campaign at mymuslimvote.org!
This is solidarity.
Two years ago, a coalition of groups sent the following letter to @wmnsmarchla . Since it's clearly fallen on utterly deaf years with the exclusion of @BLMLA , I figure might as well make it public: docs.google.com/document/d/1lH… #WhiteWomensMarch
Women's March be like, "Yeah, we're making spaces for Black Women to participate, but only for our paid consultants and don't exhibit policy stances that may be too extreme for our tastes!" Same group that accused those who defend Palestinian women and girls of antisemitism. 😑

Thank you @LAProgressive for publishing our official statement about being excluded from this year’s #WomensMarch. @wmnsmarchla @BLMLAYOUTH @Blklivesmatter @DMVBlackLives @AF3IRM #BlackLivesMatter #AntiBlackness laprogressive.com/BLMLA-excluded…
We want to remind you all of the horrific attacks on our co-founder @TheThandi_Way 2 years ago by @wmnsmarchla. She was 14 years old.
Yes, it’s an outrage. Be mad.
Outrageous
America is not a melting pot— It’s an extremely segregated salad held in a bowl build of institutionalized injustice, violence and genocide. It’s time for us to toss the salad and abolish the bowl.
Saying white men that kill people to make a political statement are mentally ill is a great way to avoid talking about white nationalist terrorism. Racism is not a mental illness, it’s a learned habit

Period. This is REAL intersectionality. If you can’t get with it you’re not really with the movement.

Last week police in Los Angeles shot 5 people, killing 4 of them, including #RyanTwyman and #EdtwonStamps. June 6th was one of the most horrific days in terms of police violence, but it’s not an anomaly. It’s part of a #CowboyCulture that defines LA policing. @BLMLA

They would love for us to believe that Nipsey’s death was an act of gang violence. We know the truth.

We as white people are so quick to talk about “Black on Black crime” but aren’t willing to critically look at the systems that we help uphold, that we are completely complicit in making sure survive, and that we let kill Nipsey Hussle. We need to wake up. x.com/docmellymel/st…

Ok @FedEx our driver deserves a bonus! He realized it was our daughter's birthday & went to @DairyQueen to get her ice cream cupcakes. He said "I just wanted to do this because if we weren't in this situation, she'd be celebrating with friends." I'm not crying. You're crying! 😭

.@womensmarchla I just hope that the exclusion of @BLMLA(#BlackLivesMatter) can be addressed, apologies made, & pledges to include them in the future. I am sickened that this important Los Angeles grass roots mvmt 4 inclusion & elevation of Black Voices was excluded.
Hey @wmnsmarchla You can’t exclude @BLMLA and think that’s what intersectional feminism looks like! Naw. We already know, “Nothing about us without US is for us.” #BlackLivesStillMatter
Say WHAT? We cannot afford to protect the very man who pushes women of color, femmes, indigenous women and so many more to the margins of history. We march tomorrow to preserve the history of the many, not just the elite few. #WomensMarch2020
Aaand this is why I haven’t attended the #WomensMarch since it’s inception. Failing to invite @BLMLA to be apart of this event and inviting Caitlyn Jenner as a speaker. In 2020?! Tone deaf. Feminism is pointless if it’s not intersectional.
Today, Women’s March Foundation announced an initial list of speakers, performers and special guests for Women’s March LA 2020.#womensmarchla #womensmarchfoundation #womenrising #resist #dtla #cityofla
Proud of @ACLU_SoCal today and in solidarity with @BLMLA always.
@womensmarch @wmnsmarchla UPDATE: In solidarity with @BLMLA, we will no longer have a booth at Women's March LA as previously planned. Stay tuned for future opportunities to learn about & engage w/ our work, including the crucial police & jails accountability work we do w/ BLM-LA. x.com/blmla/status/1…
Remember when everyone praised black women voters for showing up/making shit happen during the 2017 elections? How they’ve been such a large part of the LA Women’s March? Well the Women’s March decided to not invite @BLMLA today. Guess it’s just for white women in pink hats now?
LMFAOOOOOOOOhbluifkdnwejhgv . BRO WHAT IS THIS!?!??
@stephenlc @AyannaPressley This is so sweet! I swear, this week has just been filled with reasons to admire Ayanna Pressley!

Has anyone else ever secretly hoped a white person u hated would call u the N word you you could beat them up and be justified? No? Just me?
In solidarity with @BLMLA I’m no longer speaking at the Women’s March LA today. I can only imagine the world we would live in if white women centered and organized around black women and all women of color. (1 of 2)
“Your activism may be for fun, mine is for survival” Powerful words from @MFOLDC Co-Director and DC native Helisa Cruz x.com/ethanjsomers/s…
@wmnsmarchla wow yall are ignoring everyone on twitter tryna pretend your reasoning for excluding @BLMLA is some garbage about wanting to focus on voting advocacy, while you have caitlyn jenner as a speaker. 🤷🏻♀️ and then straight up turned off comments on instagram. sounds about white
Wtf is up with this @wmnsmarchla??? Aren’t y’all supposed to be inclusive? #WomensMarch2020 #WomensMarch #BlackLivesMatter #BLM

As a Black woman, the personal is political. My hair story is no exception. Sharing a very personal story today to create space for others:
"My twists have become such a synonymous & a conflated part of not only my personal identity & how I show up in the world, but my political brand. And that's why I think it's important that I'm transparent about this new normal & living with alopecia." — @AyannaPressley
