Rep. Attica Scott is the author of Breonna’s Law and is the only Black woman currently in the Kentucky state legislature.
She’s been charged with first-degree rioting The police officers who murdered Breonna have not been charged for murdering her and are free. h/t @Blackamazon

And that is another reason why I will keep saying this.

Attica Scott, the lone black woman in Kentucky’s state legislature & author of “Breonna’s Law” (ban no-knock warrants) arrested in #Louisville & charged with riot in 1st degree; Class D felony.
If convicted she would lose her right to vote & hold office.

The rioting charge is a Class D felony, same class as former LMPD officer Brett Hankison's wanton endangerment charges.
Failure to disperse & unlawful assembly are misdemeanors.
Scott’s daughter Ashanti & activist Shameka Parrish-Wright @Seasoned4u from Bail Project also arrested

Whose Lives Matter? On the Hatred and Willful Disregard for Black Women's Lives by @monaeltahawy feministgiant.substack.com/p/whose-lives-… #SayHerName #RBG #BreonnaTaylorMatters #SCOTUS
White girls are fed fairy tales in which a princess cursed into eternal sleep is awakened by a kiss from a white prince who becomes her happily-ever-after love.
If as feminists we are to challenge the asinine patriarchal fuckery of these fairy tales,what are we doing to challenge the nightmare realities that Black girls are raised with in which a Black woman asleep in her bed in her home is murdered by police barging into her apartment?
brother malcolm was right. they still won't even admit the knife is there #BreonnaTaylorMatters #Amerikkka
see this clip for brother malcolm discussing the nature of the knife in more detail
and this one for malcolm's discussion of what to do about it
I am ending the day with these two events from today my mind, connected and heavy:
- Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was brought to lie in state at the Supreme Court.
Her casket was met by 120 people who clerked for her. Only one during her 27 years at SCOTUS was Black.

- A grand jury in Kentucky did not charge any of the police officers who murdered Breonna Taylor.
Instead, it indicted a single police officer for shooting into neighboring apartments, not for shooting at the Black woman who was sleeping in her bed in her home.

These events say so much about whose lives are celebrated, whose lives matter, who is remembered, who is given an opportunity, whose oppressions are noted, whose success despite oppression is lauded, and who is considered important.
America is fucked up in so many ways.
