📢 Must-Read: Why White Working-Class Britons Should Support Colonial Slavery Reparations by Nels Abbey. In this compelling piece, Abbey discusses how the wealth generated from slavery has long benefited a privileged few while neglecting the broader working-class community. He highlights that the fight for reparations is not merely about addressing historical injustices; it also offers an opportunity for working-class solidarity in seeking economic justice for the descendants of the enslaved. This article invites us to re-evaluate our understanding of wealth distribution and class dynamics within the context of colonial legacies. Join the conversation on reparations, equity, and collective action: https://bit.ly/4e7cIpC

This essay, along with the mini-doc below, are parts of a project commissioned by the International Center for Transitional Justice examing the intergenerational effects of lynching across the state of Maryland https://lnkd.in/e7TNy2yj
One of the last known lynchings in Maryland happened in Salisbury in 1931, when Mathew Williams was attacked by a racist mob, hanged and his body was dragged to the Black community and set afire. Now the city has finally decided to apologize, and the city council is expected to ratify it on Monday. Many in the community think the apology falls short and doesn't address the intergenerational effects of what is described as an act of racial terror. In 2021 I was commissioned to produce a mini documentary and photo essay on the legacy lynching across the state by the International Center of Transitional Justice. I traveled from Cumberland to Salisbury and in between to interview descendents, activists and other stakeholders. You can see the 7 minute mini-doc at the link below https://lnkd.in/eYugndMK

It is up to us to determine the kind of government and leaders we will have.
Jewish values strongly support our active participation in voting and civic engagement. "You shall appoint magistrates and officials for your tribes, in all the settlements that the Eternal your God is giving you, and they shall govern the people with due justice.” (Deut 16-18)

Today, we pause to reflect on Juneteenth – also known as Freedom Day and Emancipation Day. It marks a cornerstone in American history: the abolition of slavery and the long-awaited enforcement of emancipation in the last Confederate state. #Juneteenth #weservetennesseans

Rev. Wylie Hughes and I discuss: - The Black-Jewish Alliance - what happened to it and how to revive it? - Public Discourse - can civil conversation return to civic life? - The illiberal Left - can we revive liberalism among progressives? The answers - only when we pull apart the Gordian knot of White Supremacy, American misogyny and patriarchy, and anti-Indigenous genocide, for a start. https://lnkd.in/engUqNiW

I’m looking for a role as a Policy Director at a nonprofit that has a focus on marginalized communities
On June 19, 1865, Union soldiers arrived in Galveston, Texas to announce the end of slavery in the United States. This day, known as Juneteenth, has since been celebrated as a symbol of freedom and the end of one of the darkest chapters in American history. As we approach Juneteenth this year, I am committed to using my platform to educate and raise awareness about the lasting impacts of slavery and systemic racism on American Descendants of Slavery (ADOS). I will be sharing information and insights throughout the day to shed light on harmful policies created by legislation in the United States government that continue to disproportionately affect ADOS communities. I look forward to engaging with you all on this important day and continuing the discussion beyond Juneteenth. Let us honor the past while working towards a better future. #policychange #ADOS
