The government funds family separation and not housing because this is precisely what the “child welfare”/family policing system is designed to do—and why we must abolish it & reimagine safety & care. #TornApart #abolishCPS

It was such a joy speaking to @priyakrishna for this fantastic piece. We talked about our family traditions, using roti for moo shu, and the “round, round rotis” Jasminder made in Bend it like Beckham. And I may have fangirled just a bit, too. nytimes.com/2023/10/10/din…
It was such a pleasure speaking with @jcraigwilliams about why we need to stop criminalizing children. Thank you so much for giving me the space to talk about my dreams for what the future of youth justice could be.

Once again, journalist @strawburriez makes a compelling case for abolishing child welfare/family policing, drawing on the voices of many of us working to dismantle this destructive system & to strengthen caring communities. inthesetimes.com/article/child-…
This story illustrates how our law enforcement system starts from a point of punishment, even when faced with an exploited 11-year-old.

Maybe Dems should focus on the fact that Thomas and Alito are in their 70s and would love to retire under Trump so they can be replaced by teenagers? Focus on winning, not pressuring SS to retire 7 months before the election.
"For the sake of all of us, Sonia Sotomayor needs to retire from the US supreme court." One of the hardest pieces I've written for a while. Please do actually read it, & follow the argument, before you respond in anger or shock: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
@firebug2006 We have a bare majority now... her retiring now would require all of the Senate Dems to get in line to confirm her replacement... which would likely mean that Biden would have to appoint someone more moderate than SS.

The Child Abuse Prevention & Treatment Act does not prevent or treat child abuse. It surveils and separates families who are disproportionately Black & poor. We can fix this by repealing CAPTA and redirecting its funds to the families who need them most. thegrio.com/2024/02/23/50-…

The family policing system in a nutshell. #AbolishCPS
In Georgia, a mom facing eviction reached out to DFCS for help. They offered her nothing. Soon the agency took her kids away because of "inadequate housing." The state then spent $6,200/month to house her kids in foster care. A must-read by @stephannnnie propublica.org/article/georgi…
