Thisssssss

Tuesday’s @realDonaldTrump post-indictment “address” is a test for TV news orgs. He will lie. There is no justification for platforming liars and their lies on LIVE television. There are many reasons not to. Your organization’s credibility, for one. Watch, analyze, THEN report.

Please check out my mini piece @thenation thenation.com/article/societ… so grateful to @thenation for being such a vital space to tell our stories 🙏🏿💜 #WaterCrisis #JACKSON


Zipcar is nothing but a ripoff. I got a car that was nearly E. They give you a gas card but it does not work. I have spent more than an hour trying to get reimbursed, and I keep getting obdurate customer service people. Is zip owned by Avis? They do not help customers!!!!!

Does anyone have a good telephone number for UPS Customer Service (if there is such a thing). I paid for next-day delivery of a package which is now being delayed by 72 hours. The email and automated complaint methods are unproductive and frustrating. Help!!!!

Corporations that give to ALEC & refuse to challenge voter suppression don’t get a pass b/c they also give to civil rights orgs. You can’t play both sides in a struggle for justice.


That insurrection was aided and abetted by the Capitol police. It was an inside job!

“Warnock, who weaves his biblical reflections with a message of social justice, preaches in the spirit of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Warnock also reminds me of Rev. William Barber, Rev. Freddy Haynes, and my own pastor, Rev. William Lamar.” @DrJLastWord daytonatimes.com/2020/11/27/dis…

This is a powerful tribute to the late, great Congressman John R. Lewis.

One of the hurtful things of being in this moment with the coronavirus is hearing people talk about implementing *temporarily* things we’ve been talking about for years should be implemented *permanently*. #COVID19 #NationalDayOfPrayer

Very few people are talking about how a virus like #COVID19 impacts the poorest among us first & foremost. Please join me in sending a message to @CNN @UnivisionNews & @DNC: The presidential debate this Sunday should be totally focused on poverty & low wealth. #TrollingForGood



I feel so blessed to be within walking distance of the Historic Bethune House. I smile when I think of this ancestor’s focus, tenacity, contribution. Some mornings just just stop to commune with her spirit.

Ed Gordon’s new book is worth checking out. Conversations in Black focuses on power, politics and leadership. It was great hanging out with him yesterday. Also pictured, Matthew Brown my utterly brilliant godson. ⁦@SantitaJ⁩ ⁦@TheRevAl⁩ ⁦@IAmSophiaNelson

Well if he wants to drink weed killer, I know where he can buy some. If I had time, I'd deliver some to his office! @SantitaJ @revkarimah @RepMaxineWaters @IamMinyon @drboycewatkins1 @Bakari_Sellers @barbs73 @RepBeatty @mrbrownsir @RickAdams14 @CharlieNelms @rolandsmartin

Sen John Kennedy said he’d rather drink weed killer than support Obamacare, lying about a program that expanded healthcare access to millions. Now he’s lying about Ukraine.

The operative word here is "Beauregard". This "proud" segregationist Southerner truly has no respect for himself or the people of Alabama. A walking epitome of "a sin and a shame". Hope Alabamans aren't duped again! @RevDrBarber @WilliamHLamarIV @RepTerriSewell @drboycewatkins1

Can you believe racist Jefferson Beauregard Sessions is running to come back to the Senate? Sessions has no respect for himself in the way he's singing Trump's praises who embarrassed him, called him a "dumb southerner", & threw him under the bus. What a mindless wonder!
