A quote by Ria-Washington, President of the National Lawyers Guild, says "The state will move the goalposts and make whatever necessary adjustments they need to so they will criminalize protests." It’s captured from an Instagram post by jewishvoiceforpeace, which says, “In this piece, Tom Perkins for Mondoweiss, uses data from over 100 attorneys and legal observers to dive into how the US government's repression of protest over the last five years has escalated, with pro-Palestine protesters facing harsher punishments than Black Lives Matter protesters, who in turn faced harsher punishments than prior protest movements.”
They can crush protests & political dissent, erase historical narratives & silence #underrepresented voices & #diverse perspectives, call them “divisive narratives” or “improper ideology.” But truth can’t be censored, nor memory expunged. Our #stories endure. Share them. Defend #FreeSpeech. #Resist
