"As Philadelphia’s courts continue to hold emergency hearings to reduce the jail population amid a coronavirus outbreak behind bars, one judge has rejected every request for inmate release — and has even increased the bail for four."

inquirer.com/news/coronavir…
"In February, Superior Court overturned a seven-year prison sentence Coyle imposed on a man who had violated probation, saying 'a reasonable observer could question whether the judge comported herself in an unbiased and impartial manner.'"
Coyle is literally killing the very people she is supposed to serve.

Our systems are rigged so that, once elected, judges only ever get promoted, retire, or die. Until those systems are destroyed, we've got to win our local elections.

Please #VoteDownBallot.

@nyuniversity: an MCC tenured professor spent an entire class period telling students that wearing masks doesn’t prevent the spread of COVID-19, and that hydroxychloroquine trials were made to fail so more people would be given the vaccine and have their DNA changed. thread 1/
He followed up that class by sending us links to anthraxvaccine.blogspot.com/2020/06/how-fa… and ratical.org/PandemicParall… as sources to back up his in-class arguments against masks and vaccines. I have forwarded the emails to the NYU bias hotline. 2/
The latter website links many far-right and conspiracy websites, such as The Charlie Kirk Show, Zero Hedge, Technocracy News, Medicine (Un)Censored, GreatGameIndia, WorldNetDaily, The Highwire w Del Bigtree, Global Research, Watts Up With That?, One News Now, and more. 3/

Regarding the protests happening across the country: the narrative that “it’s white agitators/outsiders/infiltrators/anarchists doing all the damage and looting” is extremely harmful. (thread)
For one, it delegitimizes the black folks who are looting, which is a real, acceptable, and effective means of protest. Looting is not violence. The destruction of commercial and public property is not violence. Inflicting harm upon people’s bodies and minds is violence.
Secondly, it allows us to be distracted from the violence of the police. Theirs is the violence that begot these protests, and theirs is the violence that has instigated violence at these protests.

Yes!! Some other tips (thread):
1. Identifying yourself is just the first step! Make sure that after you get consent, you narrate everything you're doing. "Now I am going to hold open your eye," "Now I am going to start flushing out your eye," etc.
2. The person you are helping is in pain and is likely panicking. They have just been in a volatile situation and cannot see. You must speak clearly, but it is important to *stay calm*.

"[T]hree federal prisons in California...have cut off inmates' access to email and phone lines, drawing outrage from families who have not heard from loved ones in nearly two weeks."

cbsnews.com/news/coronavir…
"At Terminal Island, five inmates have died after testing positive for the virus....The low-security institution is home to 1,051 male inmates. More than half, 600, have tested positive."
"One woman whose husband is incarcerated at Terminal Island...received a letter from her husband that was dated March 25. He told her that he was given a swab test to see whether he had the virus. But because they can't communicate, she doesn't know if he tested positive."

"Guards have just gotten the okay to wear masks. But we still haven’t. Yet guys cover their faces with cut-off T-shirt sleeves, scarves, handkerchiefs, whatever they can."

theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
"How I see it, guards should have started wearing masks back in mid-March, when visitation & volunteer programs were canceled...At that point, they were the only ones who could have brought in the virus.

It doesn’t matter now. COVID breached the wall and killed a man yesterday."
"I’m one of nearly 150,000 state prisoners in the U.S. over the age of 55. Before this pandemic, I had hope for the first time in a long time. I received a visit from members of the New York RAPP campaign, which stands for Release Aging People in Prison."

Most #NeverBiden people I see are POC or survivors of sexual assault. To my fellow white folk, please recognize the privilege that allows you to overlook Biden’s past of racism, ageism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, & aporophobia in order to vote for the "better" of two evils.
All conversations with #NeverBiden people should be held with respect, or honestly, not held at all. It is not the place of white folks to tell most of the #NeverBiden folks what they “should” do or not do with their vote, especially using a “for the good of others” argument.
When I was canvassing for Bernie, many of the communities I walked through were low income + predominately black. I explained Bernie's positions relating to the issues they said affect them and their families the most, and I told them that I think he's the best candidate.
