Maine Lacks Adequate Civil Rights Protections
The Maine Mural
As we survey the landscape of civil rights in Maine’s public schools and publicly funded “private schools,” it is evident that the state falls desperately short in providing appropriate protections for some of its most vulnerable residents. The absence of meaningful, adequate measures to safeguard the rights of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), LGBTQ, and immigrant students represents an appalling, willing negligence of state leadership, with results that span across generations and communities.
info_outlineEarlier this month, on Friday the 7th, Maine DSA Drug Policy Subcommittee hosted an educational event about current efforts to decriminalize all drugs in the State of Maine. The event included a screening of the movie “The House I Live In” as well as a panel of activists, policy experts, and people with lived experiences to discuss the film and how the war on drugs has impacted Maine. They also provided information on two key bills in the state legislature, LD 967 “An Act To Make Possession of Scheduled Drugs for Personal Use a Civil Penalty” and LD 994 “An Act To Promote Public Health by Eliminating Criminal Penalties for Possession of Hypodermic Apparatuses”, as well as a future event on writing public testimony and op-eds.
With the permission of the subcommittee, the session was recorded and today, we will be interviewing Davey and Craig of the Maine DSA Drug Policy Subcommittee with questions from Maine DSA members.
