My latest: For this 3 generational Latina family, abortion rights are at the heart of a family dynamic that has been evolving over 50 yrs. It's been divisive and unifying and has even led to some shifts in perspective one daughter wouldn't have imagined.

For the last two years, the LAPD has refused to name the officers responsible for blowing up a neighborhood in South L.A., or outline the discipline they received, if any. Today, @brittny_mejia, @liborjany and @LAcrimes fill in many of the blanks: https://t.co/PhSZhrbB5N
