Just a reminder that @Twitter @TwitterSupport permanently suspended @HoodCommunist @BlackNoChaser and @mcclure_dede (bail fund account) for no reason. All accounts are run by Black folks

@jack, what happened to all the BLM talk? The "equity" talk?
@BlackNoChaser posted a video (that had been widely shared on twitter) and were told by twitter to remove it and they did. Twitter still never returned the account. Their new account is @BeBlackNoChaser.

@mcclure_dede was never informed of why we were suspended
It's also telling that @Twitter @TwitterSupport continue to suspend the accounts of Black people without any explanation for the most part, and no evidence of violating twitter rules (@BlackNoChaser is an exception but again, they corrected the error & are still suspended)
My account was suspended in 2019 for "violating twitter rules". I asked repeatedly what "rules" I violated and twitter could never produce any receipts. @Twitter @TwitterSupport @jack

(kind of makes me think I should create a back-up account just in case this happens again)

In light of Daunte Wright’s murder by police these politicians & police are going to try and tell you that police “need more training”. I can’t urge you enough to reject that. They’ve been getting “more training” for decades. It’s code for: more money.
As someone who was not always an abolitionist and who was deeply reformist and pushed for reforms like body cams, more training etc, I can tell you these things do nothing to disrupt or stop police violence. Ever.
Just as many people around the nation are watching the trial of Dereck Chauvin who murdered George Floyd, Minnesota police murdered a young Black man yesterday miles away from where they stole Floyd’s life.

“He shot me and I still tried to protect him because the police be killing us” - @theestallion

This has me in TEARS. My god. Black women WHEW! We cant even fight for our own lives w/o feeling like we have to protect the lives of the people who commit acts of violence against us
I’m sick for Meg and ALL Black women who have been in this position where they’ve been abused and harmed yet still felt they had to protect said abuser so they wouldn’t be killed. My god. I just. I have nothing but tears cause so many Black women have done this
That’s why I want a better world for Black women where we don’t feel we have to protect those who exact violence on us. A world where we are actually protected, loved and cared for beyond optics and performance.. a world where our safety is truly a priority.
