WYM Mod<p>Critical lead contamination issues threaten Milwaukee Public Schools. Over 125 schools built before the 1978 lead paint ban have closed for remediation after the CDC denied assistance following major budget cuts. With tens of thousands of children, mainly from Black communities, at risk of lead poisoning, the systemic disparities in health policy and funding are glaring.

Shantell Powell<p>The nationalistic fervor I'm seeing in Canada creeps me out. The Canadian flag is not the great balm for the soul so many settlers think it is. It is a symbol of colonial oppression for Indigenous folks. It wasn't so long ago that those hidden graves at residential schools were discovered. More continue to be found at the sites of former residential schools, and genocide deniers have been taking over the narrative. </p><p>Indigenous communities still remain without drinking water despite political promises even while Nestle plunders nearby water sources. </p><p>A large percentage of calls to action for Truth and Reconciliation remain unmet. </p><p>I see the jingoistic flag-waving disturbing and alienating. I've already had people laughing at my alienation. </p><p>Do not alienate Indigenous people. As Jeff Doctor says over on BlueSky, "Remember who taught you about maple trees, about the food from these lands, the ways to keep safe and warm.

Mark Wyner Won’t Comply :vm:<p>“It you have to trick someone into supporting progressive legislation that would benefit them because if you told them the truth outright they’d oppose it because they prefer to align themselves with politics, politicians, and ideologies that won’t necessarily benefit them but explicitly harm others…it’s proof that they are both a bigot and an idiot, which is a lethal combination.”</p><p>—Olayemi Olurin</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/SystemicRacism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SystemicRacism</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Bigotry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bigotry</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Legislation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Legislation</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Amerikkka" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amerikkka</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SelfSabotage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SelfSabotage</span></a></p>

Nonilex<p>The warrant to raid the home was based on shoddy surveillance. 3 officers were charged by federal prosecutors w/knowingly including false information in an affidavit to get a judge to approve the raid. One of them, Kelly Goodlett, pleaded guilty in 2022. The case against the 2 other officers, Joshua Jaynes & Kyle Meany, is still open.</p><p>The killing brought national attention to “no-knock” warrants, which allow the police to burst into homes w/o warning.</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/BreonnaTaylor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BreonnaTaylor</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/BLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BLM</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/SystemicRacism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SystemicRacism</span></a></p>

Nonilex<p>Hankison, who is white, was the only officer to be charged for his actions during the botched operation that set off a wave of protests across the country.
