Geoff Hing<p>The <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/California" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>California</span></a> ballot measure rolls back reforms made by an earlier ballot measure. My colleague wrote about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/proposition36" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>proposition36</span></a> and broader efforts to roll back <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CriminalLegalSystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalLegalSystem</span></a> reforms: <a href="https://www.themarshallproject.org/2024/08/01/california-illinois-crime-public-safety-reform" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">themarshallproject.org/2024/08</span><span class="invisible">/01/california-illinois-crime-public-safety-reform</span></a></p>
Geoff Hing<p>I've been really interested in ballot measures in the 2024 U.S. general <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/election" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>election</span></a> that could have big impacts on the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CriminalLegalSystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalLegalSystem</span></a>. I'm starting a thread of these, along with coverage of the initiatives.</p>

If we want to be free, and I realize not everyone wants freedom, but for those who do, we really must give up relying on models infused with supremacy to find our solutions. Let us be bold and revolutionary.

The school doesn’t start with a fixed curriculum. It meets the girls where they are, works with the trauma, and by doing so opens the door for them to be educated. 4/5<br><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2024/feb/20/nigeria-borno-lafiya-sarari-school-psychological-support-girls-abducted-boko-haram" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/global-develop</span><span class="invisible">ment/2024/feb/20/nigeria-borno-lafiya-sarari-school-psychological-support-girls-abducted-boko-haram</span></a></p>

Listening to their stories reinforced for me that we have to free our children from the toxicity of white supremacy that removes persons who could be role models from our communities; that re-enforces to them in their schools, in their housing, in their neighborhoods that aren’t worthy of love. 3/5</p>

The dance therapy allowed them to heal themselves and see themselves, and others around them as humans worthy of being loved. At some point they realized they could touch each other while dancing without triggering any toxic masculinity. 2/5</p>

They were screening a documentary film called “Dancing in A-Yard, which documented a dance program that was established for men in a California prison. Most of the men were serving long sentences, with a few lifers in the mix. Many of them were sent to prison while they were teenagers. 1/5</p>
Geoff Hing<p>I report on the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CriminalLegalSystem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalLegalSystem</span></a>, but before I was a journalist, much of what I learned about <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/incarceration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>incarceration</span></a> was through <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/volunteering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>volunteering</span></a> at a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/prison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prison</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/book" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>book</span></a> program.

The evidence of the &quot;crime&quot; is indisputable. The person the police arrested has a suspended license.</p>
