“Because of everything that’s going on, people are finally starting to listen to us—we feel like we’re finally getting a foot in the door,”
@KingJames told me today. “How long is up to us” This, he said, “is the time for us to finally make a difference.”https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/10/us/politics/lebron-james-voting-rights.html …43 replies 197 retweets 755 likesShow this thread
I applaud what @KingJames @TheTraeyoung and other athletes are doing on voting rights.
I urge them to talk to @Taniel @ChesaBoudin @Tiffany_Caban and other resources for decarceral politics, a key way to bring about racial justice and equality in this country's legal system.
