    On this exact day 30 years ago, a woman was raped in Central Park. Five black + brown boys were framed for her rape. The story you know is the lie that police, prosecutors and Donald Trump told you. WHEN THEY SEE US is the story of the boys from their eyes and their hearts.

    Today marks the first of the year. That's the average EXTRA time a woman has to work to earn what a man made LAST year. For women of color, it’s much worse. It’s time to value women equally. Do your part here:
