1/ Sometimes it is very necessary to speak truth to power, even when people discourage you. Individuals assert that people will not hear, or that their “hands are tied”. Feelings do not negate FACTS.
2/ We must hold leaders accountable to do what they can, when they can and pledge to take steps to get there even when it will take time, work, public education and planning. They should be committed to truth and overall societal benefit. #wearehuman #cjreform
3/ What is NOT acceptable is to send the message to any human that they do not matter. It is NOT acceptable to entertain ideas that perpetuate false narratives and harm more people than they help, simply because we are not paying attention to details. #SORegistry
1/It’s just a reality that every policy that seems to cause extreme harm in plain sight, yet is difficult to uproot, centers around large sums of money, mostly from the government. The rationalization of harm that is going on to protect systems, jobs & profit is astounding.
2/ Language is very important when we discuss PEOPLE. It is definitely easier to perpetuate false narratives when you exalt yourself over someone else by labeling them an offender, inmate felon, or perpetrator. #peoplenotprisons
3/ Accountability is important, yet elusive within a criminal legal system that leaves no space for healing, restoration and reconciliation. All who enter, both those who have been wronged and those who have caused it, are further damaged.
