- 10 September 2021 : Sending you to our website was smart. Tired of this question. It comes from a place of deflection. Usually by people who just don’t like BLM, don’t care about police violence or think it’s not as important or related to community violence, people who who thing we are the natl org
- 12 August 2021 : @alopez_pdx @CMBrookePinto Privilege. Disgusting.
- 11 August 2021 : During that time there was silence, she was there at the press conference when they awards/ selections were announced. So, Adrian Washington was able to do what he did to 3 Black women and their businesses and no one responsible for oversight, including her said or did anything.
- 11 August 2021 : Absolutely. We’d agree if that was why we’d included him. But our issue is specifically about the history of the development project, our fight with NDC and DC gov. She was Deputy Mayor of Greater Economic Opportunity at that time.
- 9 August 2021 : Do you really want this smoke today @ChuckThies ?
- 18 July 2021 : Welcome to DC where the @DCPoliceUnion is run by a raging right wing extremist leading a campaign to fight for cops to keep brutalizing and killing Black people and then blaming it on those Black people while being unable to stop the violence they fuel. https://twitter.com/DMVBlackLives/status/1321955302623924224?s=20 https://twitter.com/dcpoliceunion/status/1416745844779462657
