Mayor Bass, the colors & style of the graphic you’re using is incorrect, & does not accurately represent #JuneteenthDay.

Our #JuneteenthDay holiday has been documented for over a century, there’s enough documentaries & articles that provide enough information & historical context for all ages to understand.

Y’all still following the #ToryLanezTrial? Meanwhile..

#WellsFargo agreed to a $3.7B settlement with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau over customer abuses tied to checking accounts, mortgages & auto loans, with some of the misconduct happening as recently as this year.”
“The company was ordered to pay a record $1.7 billion civil penalty and more than $2 billion to customers with 16 million accounts, the #CFPB said in a statement.”

“"Consumers were illegally assessed fees and interest charges on auto and mortgage loans, had their cars wrongly repossessed, and had payments to auto and mortgage loans misapplied by the bank."”

Did #Reparations save the Jewish community? 🤔

#StopAntiBlackAmericanHate Image
This was a show to “debate” callers’ #Reparations arguments. Not only do the hosts lack historical context on anti-ADOS discrimination codified into American law & the data, they believe we’re only owed $2.1T.

Every rebuttal was based on racist stereotypes & bootstrapper beliefs
A prev caller tried to quote Antonio Moore’s data on the % of Black immigrants in the US prior to 1965 & JT said he was very familiar w/ his work.

He proceeded to responded to almost every caller w/ anti-ADOS rhetoric & repeated how financial literacy is needed.🥴

Mr. #FletcherAnderson, founding member of the Bogalusa Deacons for Defense chapter, speaks to why #DeaconsForDefense were needed to protect Negr0es in #Louisiana.

“The police were not there to protect us, they were there to protect the Klu Klux Klan.”
#BlackHistoryMonth #ADOS 🇺🇸
Mr. #FletcherAnderson & wife Mrs. #CynthiaAnderson were known for their local advocacy, & fought to advance & protect the Negr0 #politics

“Just about everybody on the street. They lived in the same house, but they had ‘em voting in different districts.”

#BlackHistoryMonth #ADOS
Mr. Fletcher worked at the Crown Zellerbach paper mill & Mrs. #CynthiaAnderson was an educator in the St. Tammy Parish school system(& a #GramblingStateUniversity grad).

Mrs. Anderson saw how racial bias was infused in alt teaching methods after desegregation.

@FloydiesNFT is another example of how #America views ADOS lives; even in death we’re denied peaceful rest.

@SFMayorsOffice @LondonBreed What are you doing about @SFPDCentral support of this racist trope?

😤✍🏾🔥🔥🔥

#MSNBC’s @JoyAnnReid, @MalcolmNance , former TV One pundit @rolandsmartin, the Urban League’s @MARCMORIAL, and CNN’s @angela_rye were among Black journalists and co-conspirators who accused #ADOS of being “MAGA” supporters, xenophobic, nativists and “Russian Bots”..”
@JoyAnnReid & @digitalsista on @MSNBC making false claims & assertions about online users who support #ADOS being ‘Russian bots’ targeting Black voters to spread #Misinformation

The Biden Admin supported & increased the #police budget, while the media accentuates the “surge in violent #crime.”

This will disproportionately affect the Black community, as in #California we’re “3 times more likely to be seriously injured, shot, or killed by the police..” ImageImage
In #California governor Gavin Newsom’s “Real Public Safety Plan,” it includes things like $255M in grants over 3 yrs to increase police presence in retail stores, a permanent Smash & Grab Enforcement Unit under the CA Highway Patrol & $30M in grants for local prosecutors… 👀 Image
Last year I posted about the 5 suspects who were arrested, & the $80M in stolen merchandise recovered during a sting operation that busted the largest #retailtheft organization to date, in the state of #California.
