As people vote, keep in mind: millions are barred from the ballot. Mississippi still has a LIFETIME voting ban on people convicted of felonies like theft or perjury. There was hope that'd end this year, but a federal court reinstated the ban: boltsmag.org/mississippi-...

“Imagine if just half of those folks could vote,” says a Mississippi advocate who hoped to defeat his state’s practice of permanent felony disenfranchisement.

Disability justice must be inclusive of all disabilities and identities. If it’s not intersectional, it’s not true justice — we can’t leave anyone behind. #Disability #HumanRights #Equity #SDGs #Poverty #Intersectionality #Equality

Texas is going to murder, by leathal injection, Robert Robertson - an innocent man - tonight. He was convicted 20 years ago on what is now considered Junk Science, and also because his affect was not considered normal - he's #ActuallyAutistic
The Texas state board was unanimous in denying a stay.
Please continue
to ask Abbott's office to grant a 30 day reprieve for Robert Robertson.

10/16/24 10:19 EDT HOUSTON (AP)
-A Texas state board on Wednesday declined to stop what could be the first execution in the U.S. in a case tied to the diagnosis of shaken baby syndrome, rejecting clemency pleas from a man whose claims of innocence have drawn wide support, including from Republican lawmakers and a detective who say the conviction was based on faulty science.
The parole board voted unanimously, 6-0, to not recommend that Robert Roberson's death sentence be commuted to life in prison or that his execution be delayed.
The uncertainty surrounding shaken baby syndrome has also led to reevaluations of many criminal cases. Since 1992, the convictions of at least 34 people in the U.S. have been vacated when allegations of shaken baby syndrome or abusive head trauma were a factor, according to the National Registry of Exonerations, which tracks sentences for wrongful convictions
The appeals court denied the inmate's latest appeal on Wednesday. That court last week ordered a new trial for a man sentenced to 35 years in prison for his conviction

WE MUST BUILD COLLECTIVE POWER FOR COLLECTIVE LIBERATION THAT'S THE ONLY WAY OUT THAT'S THE ONLY WAY FORWARD THAT'S THE ONLY WAY THROUGH It's solidarity or bust, friends. So get to building those relationships of trust and care, because that's the foundation on which everything else resides.

"Ally" is a useless word and it's not helpful to tell others that's what you are. Show up. Demonstrate allyship. Demonstrate collaboration. That's what matters.

Marginalized people, poor people, disabled people etc. are always the first to warn society about an impending crisis. And they are almost always ignored. Yet, when everything collapses, they are the first to be abandoned. This is an unacceptable moral injustice.

Trans people shouldn’t have to crowdfund every month to have their needs met. We gotta do better by them. Hire them to speak at events, pay them their worth. With that said please donate so we can ensure a Trans Man has food for a month or more. He gives to the community constantly. $compl3xsoul
