Kindness matters. But kindness does not = justice. Civility counts. But calling for civility is not the humane response to injustice. Justice is. Love is essential. But love is not a passive, weeping bystander. Love puts in the work.

Emmett Till would’ve been 79 today. That’s another reminder of how recent that event was. He was born a year after John Lewis.

John Lewis was a giant among men. A Civil Rights Icon, an indefatigable champion for justice, and a hell raiser known for making ‘good trouble.’ In mourning his passing, let us aspire to build the nation that Congressman Lewis believed it could be. May he Rest In Peace.

In 2000, I graduated from a VA high school named after a Confederate General. Now, there’s talk of changing the name. There’s campaign for Ibram X. Kendi High School, and I’m in shock. But I’m happy old Stonewall Jackson is probably raging in his grave. change.org/p/prince-willi…

People say I'm being divisive when I say that America was founded on racism and white supremacy. The reason for that is twofold: 1. A lot of white people don't understand what "white supremacy" means 2. MOST PEOPLE learned the white supremacist version of US history A thread

Emmett Till would be 78 today. His mother, Mamie Till-Mobley, ensured that the world saw how gruesomely her 14 year-old child was murdered. Racism isn’t disagreement. Families grieve. Communities mourn. Dreams wither. Humanity suffers. People perish. Remember Emmett Till.
