Every time police arrest a white mass shooter alive & w/o shooting is an another powerful reason to reject the police “they-were-armed” justification and narrative after killing a Black person.

Almost 80 years of life…💔
Pearly Young, 77, was killed today in #Buffalo shopping for groceries. For 25 years she ran a pantry where every Saturday she fed people in Central Park. Every. Saturday. She loved singing, dancing, & being with family. She was mother, grandma, & missionary. Gone too soon 🕊

I would rather thousands of people take advantage of a food stamps program than one person sit hungry. People getting too much assistance for food will never bother me. The whole debate blows my mind. Food should be available to everyone always.

In this book, written after ‘I Have A Dream,’ my father writes about racism in detail. He shares about “white backlash” and the need for white people to commit to ending racism. Today, this would be called dangerous. It was called dangerous then. My father was assassinated.

I deserve to be loved. I deserved to be seen. I deserve to be more than the labor I can do for others. I deserve to be valued. I deserve to be known. I deserve people seeking to understand me.

there is just so much joy in the world and today was one of those days where I was reminded that God is doing her thing and I'm here -- listening, learning, reflecting, and doing my best to walk towards/in my gift.
