Alicia Garza, co-founder of Black Lives Matter writes, “when Black people get free, everybody gets free.” See here for source(Links to an external site.).

Remember this as you consider the policy proposals suggested in these selections. Focusing on intensely marginalized communities in social change efforts (in policywork and beyond) is smart because other social groups benefit from broader extension of justice and social resources to the community! Also, importantly, it is politically and ethically sound.
