Read @glyndacarr.bsky.social’s latest @wordinblacknews.bsky.social op-ed. The arrest of @replamonica.bsky.social isn’t about law enforcement—it’s about punishing Black women for leading with integrity. 🔗 hhfa.us/wordinblack #BlackWomenLead #StandWithMcIver

A Dangerous Precedent: Criminalizing Black Women’s Leadership

The arrest of Congresswoman LaMonica McIver during a visit to a migrant detention facility in Newark is about authoritarianism, not justice.

@replamonica.bsky.social has been charged for doing what she was elected to do—provide oversight and demand accountability. This is about silencing Black women in power. We stand with her.🔗 Read the statement from President & CEO @glyndacarr.bsky.social via hhfa.us/StandWithLaM...

We sat down with John-John William IV of @thebaltimorebanner.com to unpack what due process really means in today’s immigration system. From one-page notices to limited hearings, the gap between law and practice is growing. Join us in two weeks for Sunday Brunch hhfa.us/2025-Brunch

This #TeacherAppreciationWeek, we celebrate @repjahanahayes.bsky.social , a former teacher and 2016 National Teacher of the Year. But while we uplift educators, Trump has signed 8 executive actions that threaten public education. Appreciation must come with action. #SupportTeachers #BlackWomenLead

Congratulations to Board Member @ljoywilliams.bsky.social as she steps into her new role as President of the #NAACP NYS Conference! L. Joy has tirelessly advocated for justice, equity, and civic engagement, and we know she will bring the same passion and leadership to this role. #BlackWomenLead

I met with CORA Food Pantry to discuss their critical work in combatting food insecurity within our community. In #NC04, over 68,000 people rely on SNAP to put food on the table, and the GOP’s proposed cuts to these benefits will place an undue burden on local organizations working to fill in gaps.

Today, we remember Breonna. We honor her not just in words but in action—by demanding justice, accountability, and a world where Black women’s lives are valued and protected. #SayHerName #BlackWomenLead

Black women who speak truth and stand up for justice are always the disproportionate target of these attacks, and we’re seeing that play out here. That’s why we are here to support Black women who lead like @pressley.house.gov. #BlackWomenLead

@algreen.house.gov stood up for the people, and Congress sat him down for it. Imagine getting censured for defending Medicaid while the House tolerates insurrectionists. History won’t remember the boos, but it’ll remember the courage. Keep shaking that cane, Congressman.

Earlier this week, @replamonica.bsky.social (NJ-10) introduced the #MERITAct to reinstate federal workers unjustly fired under Trump & Musk’s DOGE. With 66 cosponsors & union backing, it restores jobs, back pay & justice. Black women are leading the fight — when #BlackWomenLead, the people win.

Donald Trump just told farmers to “have a lot of fun” while actively working to harm them. #StateOfThePeople
