The Voting Rights Act was won through courageous organizing, sacrifice, and disciplined nonviolence, but its promise remains unfinished. Voting protections have been weakened, and barriers continue to threaten the voices of eligible voters. Congress must act with urgency to restore the Voting Rights Act, strengthen protections against discrimination, and expand fair access to the ballot. Watch and share this video. Then contact your senators and representative and demand action. Check your voter registration, learn the election dates in your community, and help others prepare to vote. The right to vote must be fully protected. #VotingRightsAct #VotingRights #MLK #Nonviolence365 #BelovedCommunity

NEW: Access is Love and ‘Disability Justice is Liberation’ On July 26, 1990, the world’s first civil rights law for people with disabilities, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law in the U.S. July is now dubbed Disability Pride Month to commemorate the ADA. Thirty five years after the act became law, four disability rights activists spoke in South Minneapolis about the need for actual disability justice, more protections, awareness, resources, and more accessibility. “Disability justice emphasizes that access is fundamental,” said Nadia Haar, a panelist and member of the disabled community during a discussion titled Disability Justice is Liberation.

.UNICEF reports a “shockingly high” number of malnourished children in Gaza. Months after the ceasefire, babies are still dying of hunger and treatable conditions due to blocked aid. We call on the Trump administration to honor its commitments under the ceasefire, remove remaining barriers to humanitarian access, and work with international partners to guarantee the immediate and unrestricted flow of food, medical supplies and aid personnel. We also urge all governments, aid agencies and global leaders of conscience to act swiftly. Every day of inaction costs more children their health, their futures and their lives. SEE UNICEF REPORT:
