Illinois eliminated cash bail in September. Jail populations are down and crime rates haven't spiked. “The dramatic pronouncements made last year of chaos in our communities have turned out to be patently false.” @DeanOlsenIT via @verainstitute: illinoistimes.com/news-opini…

"If we truly seek to build safer communities, the conversation about #publicsafety must be informed by the voices of those most impacted and the resilient Black defenders who work tirelessly to champion the well-being of their communities." —@a_bloodworth8

External validation will always leave us feeling empty. Our self worth is in the hands of other people’s approval. Do it for your younger self instead. You are the person you always needed. Trust yourself more than the opinions of others.

How do you know if being accused of gaslighting is a gaslighting move? The current philosophical underpinnings might be inoculating us from valid and needed correction preventing forgiveness and repentance.
