Listen, I have nothing against #timtebow but you’re gonna tell me with a straight face that he can get a contract but #Kaepernick can’t ? All the talk about how much time Kap has missed & potential distractions etc should never be repeated ever again in life

Kentucky Derby set for 1st Black jockey since '13
Kendrick Carmouche on Saturday will be the first Black jockey in the Kentucky Derby since 2013 and just one of a handful over the past century.
Today is the 71st anniversary of Chuck Cooper becoming the 1st African American drafted in the NBA. His son's efforts made sure he got into Hall of Fame: undf.td/2VqIqa0
On this day in 1959, a Black man named Mack Charles Parker was killed by a white mob in Mississippi. No one was ever prosecuted. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. calendar.eji.org/racial-injusti…
This is the trauma so many of us can relate to regarding the George Floyd murder. Those who don’t are clearly selfish, callous, likely racists.
Charles McMillian, who tried to speak to George Floyd as officers first tried to put him in a police car and then later as Floyd shouted for his mama while Derek Chauvin kneeled on his neck, just broke down on the witness stand. Court on a break now.
Nope. Get Birx off of my everything...she knowingly, willingly failed us all.
#OnThisDay in 1965, Viola Luizzo was murdered for driving voting rights activists to Selma.

On this day in 1939, a young Black man named Lloyd Gaines disappeared just months after winning a desegregation case allowing him into an all-white law school. He was never seen again. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. calendar.eji.org/racial-injusti…

On this day in 1944, a white bus driver in Alexandria, Louisiana shot and killed Private Edward Green, a 23-year-old Black soldier, for refusing to sit in the segregated section of a city bus. To overcome racial inequality, we must confront our history. calendar.eji.org/racial-injusti…
I can’t overstate the danger of what the Georgia GOP is trying to pull off right now. On the day after Bloody Sunday, they’re voting on a dozen voter suppression bills that disproportionally target Black voters. They’re terrified of what Black voters in Georgia just accomplished.
This is a big deal. Congrats to Coach Jennifer King. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id…
