Ohio lawmakers continue their attack on Black community organizers and grassroots organizations. House Bill 109 targets protesters directly by increasing charges to felonies and classifying police officers as a protected class. We know who they are talking about. This bill is intended to further demonize and penalize a particular type of protester. We saw the reaction (or lack there of) when white nationalists stormed the Capitol. We know who will be harmed by this bill; it will always be the Blackest, brownest, disabled and poorest amongst us. Show up to Jasmine's policy hour tomorrow at 2 pm by registering here!
