The Georgia Senate passed a bill today to roll back no-excuse absentee voting, which would restrict it to those who are at least 65 years old, have a physical disability or are out of town and require more voter ID, creating difficulties for voters. ajc.com/politics/georgia-sen…

Rev. Dr. King was a leader within our movements. The movement made him, and he made the movement. When we celebrate his legacy, we also celebrate the brilliant organizers he fought alongside. We fight in this spirit today! #RadicalKing #MLKDay

Our collective power is strengthened when we look 2 the legacy of our ancestors. Dr. King is an ancestor whose vision of #RadicalLove guides us. While #WhiteModerates co-opt #DrKing 's legacy, we know that #RadicalKing demands an end to white supremacy! #MLKDay

On #MLKDay we commemorate the life and legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The only true way to honor this hero is to reclaim the #RadicalKing who stood up against racism and injustice, spoke truth to power and demanded freedom for the oppressed. @Blklivesmatter @BLMLA
