Trump claims he got criminal justice reform "done"
On Trump's watch, DOJ reinstated use of private prisons, reignited the War on Drugs, reversed guidance on debtors prisons, turned its back on policing reform and is restoring the federal death penalty.

🚨The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that private plaintiffs may continue to bring suits against states under the Voting Rights Act.
Individuals & orgs can sue states in federal court when they racially discriminate against voters.

#OTD in 1913 Rosa Parks was born. Her contributions to the Civil Rights movement were instrumental to all the progress we see today.

OTD 1870, the 15th Amend was ratified. After its passage, thousands of African Americans were elected to political office.
This brief period of success was followed by racial violence, Jim Crow laws, KKK & disenfranchisement schemes.

The ruling by the FCC is proof of what we can accomplish when we act with urgency to impede the spread of hateful campaigns that intend to cause harm or disrupt due process in our nation. That is why we remain dedicated to combatting everyday hate incidents across the country. pic.twitter.com/gk4MY84c1I

The Voting Rights Act of 1965 prohibits racial discrimination at the polls, but 7 years ago, key parts of this legislation were struck down by the Supreme Court.
Just last year we protected the majority-minority Georgia residents from voter suppression: bit.ly/3aViH1A pic.twitter.com/8H8Vzy5ur0

We can’t ignore the context in which these restrictions emerge; just several months ago, President Trump reportedly used derogatory remarks to describe African nations. pic.twitter.com/hGEx2PPUUc

In no uncertain terms, we condemn this administration’s latest Africa ban.
This new expansion of the travel ban is yet another example of a discriminatory policy that undermines rather than protects our national security.

Lawyers' Committee was established during the height of the civil rights movement to mobilize the private bar in the fight for racial equality.
As we celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth, we must recognize that this fight is far from over.

Students have always been a central catalyst in the fight for justice
OTD 1960, North Carolina A&T college students sparked a movement to desegregate a Woolworth lunch counter
By that July, after nearly $200K in losses ($1.7M today), Woolworth relented. #BlackHistoryMonth #NCAT pic.twitter.com/fCLxUSWNLp
