Thread: Nurse friends! I need your help! Kim Gardner, The Circuit Attorney for STL City @StLouisCityCA, is an elected African American woman, & she’s a Registered Nurse! She’s up for re-election & the racist political establishment is targeting her. @NrsgMutualAid https://twitter.com/Sifill_LDF/status/1256583910441574405">https://twitter.com/Sifill_LD...
Black Women Prosecutors from across the country rallied for her & it’s time for nurses to do the same thing!
“Gardner’s peers said her experience is “emblematic of the types of attacks that we, as Black women prosecutors, have faced around the country.”” https://theappeal.org/black-women-prosecutors-st-louis/">https://theappeal.org/black-wom...

“The purpose has always been to interfere with her ability to bring reform, but we are now long past the decision to bring criminal charges and the continuation of the open investigation is solely to prevent her from doing her job.” http://www.stlamerican.com/news/local_news/gardner-files-federal-suit-via-ku-klux-klan-act/article_aa7041ca-3652-11ea-b34c-efa0bee99ee0.htm">https://www.stlamerican.com/news/loca...
Please listen to her words and her work here! The interview gets cut off at the end but Gardner describes how her public health lens influences her work as well as how doing the work for the people of STL keeps her motivated! https://twitter.com/DavisVanguard/status/1256245996952133643">https://twitter.com/DavisVang...
Gardner is focused on reforming the criminal justice system through evidence-based, holistic programs that educate, employ, and empower community members. These reforms help to break the systemic cycle of incarceration. https://twitter.com/RealJusticePAC/status/1258505384496631808">https://twitter.com/RealJusti...
