Dear America, Banning Books Is Not the Answer

July 2, 2022

By LaKeshia N. Myers Dear America, you’ve got to stop this foolishness. Banning books that tell the stories of Americans is just silly, plain and simple. By banning the stories of the enslaved, religiously persecuted, interred, or otherwise mistreated, you fail to teach the true history of this country and all her ugly truths. It […]

Know Your Rights, Know the Law, Educate Others

July 2, 2022

Legislatively Speaking By Senator Lena C. Taylor Last week, Roe V. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that protected women’s right to an abortion, was overturned.

Poor Police Work Is Letting Rapists Go Free: That Has to Stop

July 2, 2022

By Christine McDonald There is a sexual assault taking place right now. Every 68 seconds, someone in America is sexually assaulted. More than 97% of perpetrators get off scot-free.

Get Kids Ahead

June 25, 2022

By Rachel Schlueter Early Childhood Educator As an educator, I know that students can’t reach their full potential if they don’t have the strong support system they need in and out of the classroom.

Go Directly To Jail, Do Not Pass Go

June 25, 2022

Legislatively Speaking By Senator Lena C. Taylor The game of Monopoly is based partly on chance and partly on skill. A Community Chest card could enrich your wallet and landing on a well bank-rolled property could bankrupt you. Yet nothing seemed worse than pulling that “Go Directly To Jail, Do Not Pass Go” Chance card. […]

Juneteenth: Battles Fought & Won Every Generation

June 18, 2022

By LaKeshia N. Myers The late Coretta Scott King once said, “Struggle is a never-ending process. Freedom is never really won; you earn it and win it in every generation.” As an African American, I know this to be true. When I reflect on the significance of Juneteenth and us as a people, having only […]

It’s Time to Celebrate Juneteenth, No Thanks to Senator Ron Johnson

June 18, 2022

By Alex Lasry Americans across the country will be celebrating Juneteenth this year for the second year as an official federal holiday.
