Schools Are Still Separate And Unequal In The Deep South (Video)
January 24, 2019
The fight is NOT over! We just celebrated MLK Day, and sure, all the crowds were likely integrated to varying degrees… and even Vice President Mike Pence was on TV quoting King… BUT we STILL have MUCH work to do. Time to go back to school(s)… and fix this!
These students are still facing segregation and inequality every day at school, more than 50 years after Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Civil Rights movement.

Environmental Injustice And Racism In Uniontown (Documentary)
July 3, 2018
I’m from Alabama. From a Black community in Alabama. I know, even before the documentary laid this out, this level of injustice is being done to my people (and by proxy, to ME). Been being done. And it still hurts.
Residents of this town have been living under the thumb of environmental injustice and racism #ThinkingInColor
