Breaking news,
John: it’s just been announced
that Rusten Sheskey — the Kenosha police officer who shot Jacob Blake in
the back seven times, paralyzing him — will not be charged.

That’s it. With the stroke of a pen by the DA’s office, justice has been
taken away from Jacob Blake. Justice has been stolen from his family, his
community, and Black people everywhere who — like Jacob — live in fear of
police violence.

fighting hard to elect DAs who will hold police like Rusten Sheskey
accountable for their crimes. Can you make a

This work isn’t easy. And moments like this one really knock the wind out
of you. It’s deflating. Infuriating. Heartbreaking. So I’m telling you now
that it’s okay to feel whatever it is that you’re feeling right now.
That’s normal. 

But no matter what, we can’t give in fully to that despair. We can’t throw
our hands up, call it hopeless, and turn away. Because if we do that, then
another Rusten Sheskey will come along, abuse his power, and get away with
it. 

That’s what makes reform-minded DAs like Larry Krasner, Stephanie Morales,
Jose Garza, and Chesa Boudin so important: they give us a chance to tip
the scales of power and accountability back in our direction. 

[ [link removed] ]Elections matter. And this is what happens when the wrong DAs wield
that power. Please donate
$5
— or whatever you can afford — today to help Real Justice and our allies
elect the RIGHT District Attorneys instead.

Thank you for everything. Please keep up the fight, and do what you can to
take care of yourself tonight. We have a lot of work to do.
