This morning, our Founder Shaun King and our Organizing Director Chris
Lazare, had the chance to talk with our good friend Tim Emry on Instagram
Live about his race to be the next DA for Mecklenburg County in North
Carolina. That means Charlotte.

[ [link removed] ]Tim is the real deal,
John. See for yourself. Watch the
recording of our Instagram Live here. Then share it if you can.

Live

He has been a criminal defense attorney in Charlotte for over 20 years.

He started out his career as a public defender.

He has seen the inequities that have been spawned by a so-called justice
system that is built to target and lock up Black and brown people.

Under the current DA in Mecklenburg County, Black people have been 800%
MORE LIKELY to be locked up than a white person.

This current DA has chosen NOT to prosecute police officers when they have
shot and killed people.

Right now, Tim is on a team of lawyers who is suing the Charlotte Police
Department for their violent actions against protestors in the wake of the
murders of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd.

Tim is fighting to reduce mass incarceration, hold the police accountable,
promote life-saving racial and restorative justice policies, and has vowed
to NEVER seek the death penalty.

Tim is the EXACT kind of candidate we need as DA in communities all over
this country. He knows that our communities are safe when they have the
investment and long-term support for community services, not more money
for the police and mass incarceration.

Thank you for everything you do to support our work and our
candidates, John.
We are so deeply grateful to be fighting alongside every single one of
you.
