THREADπ§΅#OTD February 18, 1965 deacon and voting rights activist Jimmie Lee Jackson was murdered during a non-violent protest in Marion, AL. His death sparked the famous "Bloody Sunday" march to Selma, AL.
Don't know about Jimmie Lee Jackson?
Glad you asked. 1/11
NEW: The USPS changed its rules on how it postmarks ballots.
This may affect elections at every stage at which there's a mail deadline.
An underplayed one: VOTER REGISTRATION.
Many voters who send in their registration forms by mail could be postmarked late, missing out without realizing it.
Me, too. We donβt have these greats to count on if even in our minds anymore. Between the loss and the state of the country when they departed this world just shatters my heart. Joanne was actually in the military for a number of years.. protecting a country that didnβt always value her people. ππ¦

What's more shocking than ICE's plan to cram as many 8,500 humans into massive, soul-crushing warehouses?
Seeing the actual DHS floor plan that echoes slavery ships and history's worst gulags with no rec space but a gun range for guards

It was so wonderful to share our generation with him. John Lewis taught us so much just through example. And he was always a good friend to the family in the ensuing years after motherβs post VRA March murder. πππΏπͺ¬

I am so overwhelmed with grief. Losing Joanne is like losing a sister. She lived a very full life, serving her country, teaching civil rights history, and leading other activists in her time on earth. ππ¦πͺ¬

Your mother really knew what was coming and warned us the night she passed.. remember when the northern lights lit up the sky red?
Sharing these special memories is really appreciated. π
