It's heartbreaking to see the disproportionate impact gun violence has on African American communities. African Americans make up 64% of gun homicide victims between the ages of 18 and 29, despite representing only 15% of the US population in this age range #timetotalk

On #Stonewall50, we remember that Black trans women are (and have always been) under attack. We say their names today and everyday.

For decades, students have been shot before, during, and after school. Enough is enough. We have to have a conversation about the threat we face every single day. We need to outline the policies that will keep us safe and the action plan to make those policies law. #TimeToTalk
