They aren’t facing murder charges because Georgia police saw the video.They are facing murder charges because WE saw the video.
Here’s an idea, Mr. President. You first.
If any of my Twittersphere Fam becomes food insecure in the coming days due to lost wages during this pandemic, I can organize to GrubHub you a meal. Please DM if needed. We are inextricably bound. @Trevornoah @TheEllenShow
The complexity of life includes the inevitability of death. Loss always seems more tragic when it comes unexpected. I feel the intense mourning from folx inspired by Kobe, the basketball phenom and those grieving who he was yet to become. His legacy, powerful and layered.
A lynching?! No, sir. Try “American History & Racial Terror 1877-1950 for 40 acres and a mule.” #whiteprivilege #strangefruit
Powerful connections, courageous conversation and commitment to action and institutional evolution with philanthropic leaders from @PittsburghFdn.
Thank you, St. Jude/ALSAC for allowing me to facilitate another transformational experiential journey to Montgomery, AL as we explore the connection between the modem day civil rights movement and your responsibility as inclusive leader
Wrapped up a powerful shoot in DC for my documentary short, “Why is Washington [Still] Burning? We explored the fundamental question that white activists in the U.S. have faced, and continue to face today: What is a white American’s role in the struggle for racial justice?
If we are honest, we have all come to be in this nation only as descendants of indigenous people, immigrants or enslaved Africans. This most recent vitriol has lain beneath the murky surface of our America since its founding. #WeBelongHere nytimes.com/2019/07/19/rea…
Today our nation celebrates freedom with tanks adorning the Lincoln Memorial and children inhumanely imprisoned at our borders. #landofthefree
Today I bore witness to atrocities committed against humanity in the name of our America at Homestead Detention Center. A nation that welcomed my Ukrainian-born, Jewish immigrant great-grandfather with open arms in 1920 can’t build a wall fast enough to keep brown bodies out.

I'm not sure why my digital photo album decided to remind me of the time that @rashadrobinson traveled to North Carolina to talk with my students @WakeForest but seeing the photo again made me so happy I had to share.
In August of 1962, she attended a mass meeting at William Chapel Missionary Baptist Church in Ruleville, MS where she heard James Bevel and James Forman talk about civil rights and, at the age of 44, she first volunteered to register to vote.
You gotta be fucking kidding me
(Keep thinking: I’ve a Masters in Public Health; wrote my doctoral dissertation on global efforts to tackle AIDS pandemic; co-authored a book on global health governance; teach MPH courses on health systems & global health & I’m not qualified to lead a national #covid19 effort.)
#WEBDubois, so much he gave. He is a hero of mine. I’m in #Ghana now visiting the #WEBDuboisCenter for the #yearofreturn2019. Have you visited the Motherland?
It’s The #YearoftheReturn2019! My family and I are in #Ghana on an extraordinary journey of remembrance, commemorating the violent & inhumane extraction of our foreparents from the #Motherland 400 years ago, in 1619, and enslaving them for 250 years.
Thank you to all the lovely ppl asking if I’m ok. I am. I am Alabama tough AND I’ve had death threats from white supremacists so I’m really ok. Just sad at how debased this conversation has become and how far away it’s moving from freedom fighting or even meaningful engagement ❤️
That feeling when you just introduced bold new proposals to #CancelStudentDebt and pass #CollegeForAll! cc: @RepJayapal
If we could bail out Wall Street, we sure as hell can #CancelStudentDebt.
Why are people using “sexually assaulted” instead of “rape” to describe this allegation? Am I missing something here?
E. Jean Carroll, the advice columnist who says President Trump sexually assaulted her in a department store dressing room in the mid-1990s, told NPR she is "very glad" she published her accusation, even as Trump denied her story. n.pr/2N9x76x
