Black women are the moral compass AND our collective liberation is through us It’s unfortunate that 2 Black women have been used as pawns and harmed in an effort to maintain supremacy in this country BUT that isn’t new What is NEW and profoundly satisfying is that these same Black women are in a position to hold these folx accountable The best part is that accountability is coming from 2 Black women who they’d NEVER see or treat as their equals ✊🏾💛

Damn! Her bond is ONLY $25K less than the political and legal folx who took professional oaths BUT more than some of folx who’s hands were LITERALLY on the levers of power…another fool who should’ve just apologized and made amends to that old lady

Look how those systems, institutions, AND policies DESIGNED to privilege the few at the expense of the many are showing out today One of the few in that group with NO state sanctioned power or ethical professional obligations didn’t arrange bond BEFORE surrendering…I’m shocked
