Glad to be a part of this event bringing together #1u + #CatholicTwitter: A Mass on Workers' Memorial Day. catholiclabor.org/2020/04/cln-to… Hope some of y'all are able to join in!
Tomorrow afternoon for Workers’ Memorial Day, the #Catholic Labor Network is hosting a Mass. Thanks to @WashArchbishop for inviting folks to join! facebook.com/22690980069606… Would love to see some of y’all when I log in. #1u
Today is #WorkersMemorialDay, this afternoon join #Catholic #1u folk across the country for a Mass being celebrated by Fr. Sinclair Oubre of Beaumont, TX who ministers to @SeafarersUnion + homilist Fr. Clete Kiley of @unitehere & @archchicago. facebook.com/22690980069606…
Moving to join with ~100 Catholics & unionists for #WorkersMemorialDay, including @BpStowe & Bishop Hanchon. Powerful Gospel + call from Fr. Clete on fighting for the solidarity that is foundational to the Church & labor movement. Glad the Catholic Labor Network offered it. 🙏🏾✊🏾
I was so worried about getting everything in order for the #WorkersMemorialDay Mass that I forgot to include my own union, @AFSCME's, COVID-related deaths in the power point. Ooof. You can see the names here: afscme.org/covid-19/in-me…
In case you missed yesterday's Workers' Memorial Day Mass, @CatholicNewsSvc has a write up on Fr. Clete's great homily + the Catholic Labor Network's origins: catholicnews.com/services/engli… So proud to have been a part of putting this together. #1u #Catholic
Happy May Day + feast of St. Joseph the Worker! The #Catholic Labor is hosting a virtual happy hour later today to celebrate: catholiclabor.org/2020/04/cln-li… And if you missed the Workers’ Memorial Day Mass earlier this week, highlights here: #1u
If you join in today’s CLN HH, you’ll probably glimpse our “alter” in the background, which includes a fave side by side from our wedding: A Black depiction of St. Joseph the Worker & La Virgen de la Luz, patroness of the pueblito Husband’s fam is from. https://t.co/sRr0QuCNg4
St. Joseph the Worker was once out of work, too: catholicnewsagency.com/news/st-joseph… Two Catholic Labor Network folks quoted in this piece.
I missed at the end of last week that the CST spotlighted the death of an @afscme31 member who worked at one of the state developmental centers: chicago.suntimes.com/politics/2020/… 3 Ludeman staff have passed, 3 residents. So sad.

Another 5-3 election case decided. This one features Kavanaugh vs. Kagan, in which he agues ballots postmarked by E-Day risk flipping the results, as opposed to, you know, just being a part of the count. electionlawblog.org/?p=117435 These folks...
Not only was Kavanaugh’s decision enraging, his work was sloppy.
1. About Vermont:
2. From one of the articles he cited:
Gross how he’s inviting challenges to people’s ability to lawfully participate in our democracy. https://t.co/oZemC4tMs1

The alert that broke my phone. America was already going to be fixing this dude’s mess for years. The courts are forever changed by him. But another SCOTUS seat, Lord, have mercy.
Mitch McConnell has no scruples.
Y’all don’t have to guess, Mitch already said if he had the chance he’d fill the vacancy this year. cnn.com/2019/05/28/pol… He cares not about consistency.

I’d avoided news of Daniel Prude’s death because I wasn’t ready. Today I listened to The Daily on it. It’s as rough as anticipated. nytimes.com/2020/09/08/pod… Anyways, I listened to this version of “Strange Fruit” halfway through because my heart was heavy. npr.org/2020/06/12/875…
So we’re clear, no one in the Rochester Police command staff was asked for their resignation. The chief & two others are retiring in protest. Two others are going back to a lower rank.
nbcnews.com/news/us-news/r… The Mayor has stood by the chief’s actions the entire time.
Missed this yest: Rochester mayor relieves police chief ahead of his retirement, cites city review of Prude case. nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/ro… She also suspended the city attorney & her own communications director for 30 days without pay.

I slept when the baby did, so late to the shock. It’s only appropriate I learned from a text from Christian. When they say you never know what people are going through, this man right here. He made the most of his public facing time, & half of it while battling cancer. Just, wow.

Amazing.

To kick off Labor Day weekend, check out this @CSPLAction podcast on #Catholic Social Teaching & Labor Movement. stitcher.com/s?eid=77460270 It was nice to talk with the hosts & share the space with Fr. Kiley. #1u #CatholicTwitter

I’m praying tonight b/c it feels the only thing I’m capable of. Police shootings are like mass shootings: very American, very upsetting, very unlikely that yet another incident will tip the scales into necessary policy changes. And Jacob Blake’s children witnessed that violence.
‘The rifle was being jerked around in all directions while it was being fired.’ Gunman kills two, wounds another during another night of unrest in Kenosha: chicagotribune.com/news/breaking/…
The appraisal of how little Black life is worth begins at birth, and never ends: miamiherald.com/opinion/opn-co… I hadn’t seen that newborn study, geez. The end gutted me.
