160 years ago today, the 13th Amendment was ratified to end slavery, with one major exception: punishment for a crime.
The legacy of slavery lives on as people behind bars are still coerced into working for mere pennies or nothing at all.
It's long overdue to abolish slavery in all its forms.

Our thoughts are with the descendants and community as Mother Fletcher has joined her late brother, Hughes ‘Uncle Redd’ Van Ellis, and the generations of survivors and descendants who left this world still waiting on justice.

On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, we honor the trans people lost to violence in the U.S. this year.
Widespread poverty, homelessness, and discrimination makes trans people 4x more likely to experience violence than the average person.
We shouldn’t have to live in fear to be who we are.

BREAKING: Oklahoma has granted Tremane Wood clemency.

Screenshot of an op-ed in The Oklahoman titled "Why I, relative of a murder victim, think Stitt should grant Tremane Wood clemency" The first paragraph is shown, reading "The state of Oklahoma once again finds itself at a crossroads when it comes to fairness and justice. On Thursday, Nov. 13, Tremane Wood is scheduled to be executed. Although Tremane’s brother, Jake, admittedly took the life of Ronnie Wipf, Jake received life without parole while Tremane was sentenced to death."
The Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board believes that Tremane Wood shouldn't be put to death, yet the state is planning to execute him tomorrow for a murder he didn't commit.
Governor Kevin Stitt must act now and stop his execution.

Time is running out. In 2 days, Oklahoma will execute Tremane Wood unless Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt steps in.
👉 The Pardon & Parole Board voted for clemency.

👉 The victim’s mother opposes the execution.
