AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Climate Science & Mitigation peer reviewed abstracts are being suppressed by Trump Appointees at EPA & Dept of Interior. Scientists at these agencies know their jobs are at risk and are concerned. My opinion: Confront the truth early or, as we’re seen with Covid, delays are costly in lives & economic stability.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce How does #BlackLivesMatter impact our American experience?

June 11, 2020

@earthinstitute on Twitter The strike follows a reckoning, on social media, of how a lack of diversity in many scientific fields make black students often feel unwelcome, unsupported, or even unsafe. “Every time one of us is rejected, beat down, dismissed, ridiculed, or murdered, I question why I am still in academia,” wrote Cassandra Extavour, … More AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce How does #BlackLivesMatter impact our American experience?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Could you be misunderstanding, Defunding Police? Suffolk County, NY has successfully integrated policing with Community Srtbicez. You need help, there are #’s to call. Police respond to calls. In addition there are drug hotlines, suicide hotlines, Services that are recommended by the police. The objective, to arrest criminals, not citizens in need of mental health counselors. It’s a win win. Zoom in and learn, Tim SimiAG , speaks to the Community, answering questions every Thursday @5 pm.

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Why should Republicans concentrate on the few who’ve gotten $600 extra when Corporations & Wealthy have gotten a 12% return on their money. You’re comparing Trillions dispensed to a few million? There are 40 million out of work. People won’t work without protection from the virus. When they question workplace preparedness, they’re fired. If they’re not returning to work, it’s because the workplace isn’t safe . Why doesn’t OHSA certify safety and compliance with social distancing, masks & air flow. Penalize Corporations for non compliance , not the Workers. #IncreaseStimulusNow!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce As we mourn George Floyd, I’m convinced this moment of pain will lead to progressive change in American Legislation. Thanks to the 18-29 yr olds, this moment is a Political movement. It’s not only equal justice we want, we want equal opportunity & pay with dignity, too! People & profits. Corporations who care about the Environment, society & Corporate Governance (ESG’s) #Don’t Stop!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Magical thinking will not rid us of this virus. Serious planning should replace opening too soon. We’re at war with a virus. Self Quarantine works. Masks , goggles & gloves help. This is a silent pathogen. 100’s of cases is too many, think who each person came in contact with? How many contacts do you have on a daily or weekly schedule? There is no herd immunity. We do know the elderly, African Americans, Hispanics , Indians & other groups are susceptible. How many deaths do we have to see & read about before we adhere to scientific guidelines?

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Trump Administration Scrapped Federal Oversight of Police Brutality & racial profiling. Under Obama accountability led to Police culture changes. Now, without oversight and the removal of enforcement there is no accountability & no controls! Trumps administration uses more than Tweets to incite racial unrest!

AmericaSpeaks TheVoiceOfJoyce Defense Minister defies Trump & refuses to support Military in our Streets. A week ago Thursday, NY Republicans were attending a Zoom meeting on “armed insurrection and consequences”. Unfortunately, I deleted their agenda. However, at this time I believe all people should support non violent protests against racial inequality & income inequality. No one should be silent, when our Liberty & Freedom are threatened, along with innocent lives.
