As always, thank you for all that you do!
As a mom of two young girls, I can assure you Matt Gaetz couldn’t pass a background check to babysit my daughters—let alone to be Attorney General of the United States.

There's a forum this Saturday to discuss ways to problem solve multi-layered issues around homelessness. This forum will provide attendees with tools to help resolve other complex issues we come across. Hope to see you there!
Kamala Harris just called Donald Trump to concede the race. I am so very very proud of her for remaining the true leader that she's always been.
The need for transparency is long overdue.

We remember and continue to call for a return of all the Oct. 7th hostages.
One year ago, Hamas launched a horrific attack against Israel, killing over 1,400 Israeli citizens – including defenseless women, children, and the elderly – and kidnapping hundreds more. Today, the prospects of peace seem more distant than ever. But we continue to hope for a…
We need to hear the thoughts of those who have ShotSpotter in their own neighborhoods.

It's human nature to make mistakes, but acting with resentment will only make it worse.
Is this the week the wheels fell off of Mayor Johnson’s administration? @paschutz examines the latest City Hall turmoil. Paris on Politics airs tonight at 9:30PM on Fox 32 and anytime on Fox Local for your smart TV.
It’s our strong attachments (and strong detachments) that have a neurological component that influences our beliefs. All of us are susceptible to this, which is why it’s so important for all of us to interact with others who don’t always share our same beliefs.
Literally the dumbest people in the country.
It was 12 years ago today we had our civil union, to be followed by an upgrade to full marriage a year later. I count myself very lucky to be with the man of my dreams.
Standing with @LtGovStratton as we all grieve the loss of the 6 hostages that were murdered.
My heart aches upon learning that Hersh Goldberg-Polin and 5 other hostages were murdered. To Hersh’s parents—and all of the grieving families—I pray you find peace and know you are not alone. Sending you love and light. npr.org/2024/09/01/g-s…
Mamie Till-Mobley's decision to have an open casket for her son so that the world could see the ugly truth about racism was heroic. I was honored to once meet her nephew who spoke so proudly of his aunt.
Imagine the courage it took to say: Let them see. 69 years since the murder of Emmett Till, we reflect on our nation’s reckoning with hate – and one mother’s absolute courage to find purpose in pain. Today, let's renew our march toward a more perfect union in their memory.

As a Howard grad, I knew about our alum #KamalaHarris. I remember at one alumni club meeting talking about how her star was on the rise. I also used to watch State of the Black Union every year on C-SPAN, and I became a fan forever when I saw this in 2006:
